The account manager is Max Waggoner ([REDACTED_SECRET]) at GrowthSet. **Before doing anything else, read `references/intake-account-context.md` for account baselines, campaign structure, known issues, and historical findings.** --- ## Authentication **Ad Account ID:** `act_2335535636459862` **Developer App:** "Intake Ads Reporting" **Token:** Short-lived Graph API Explorer tokens. Generate at [https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer) → select "Intake Ads Reporting" app → grant `ads_read` → Generate Token. Tokens expire in ~2 hours. Always ask Max for a fresh token at session start. **Prompt to use:** > "Paste your Graph API Explorer token and I'll pull the latest data. Generate one at https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer — select 'Intake Ads Reporting', grant ads_read, click Generate Token." --- ## Task Routing Based on what Max is asking, read the appropriate reference file: | Task | Reference File | |---|---| | Understanding account history, benchmarks, campaign structure | `references/intake-account-context.md` | | Diagnosing CPA increases, creative issues, offer problems | `references/intake-diagnostics.md` | | Pulling fresh data via Marketing API | `references/campaign-insights-api.md` (from base skill) | | Budget reallocation, ASC vs Manual tradeoffs | `references/intake-account-context.md` + budget reasoning below | | Pixel/tracking issues, purchase value missing | `references/intake-diagnostics.md` | | Creative performance, UGC scoring | `references/intake-account-context.md` (top ads section) | For complex multi-topic sessions, read all relevant files. --- ## Data Pull Workflow When Max provides a token, use `scripts/meta_campaign_insights.py` to pull data. Standard pull sequence: ```bash # Install dependency (once per session) pip install -q requests # 1. Campaign overview — last 30 days python scripts/meta_campaign_insights.py \ -t TOKEN \ -a act_2335535636459862 \ --date-preset last_30d \ --level campaign \ -o /home/user/workspace/campaign_30d.csv # 2. Ad-level performance — last 30 days python scripts/meta_campaign_insights.py \ -t TOKEN \ -a act_2335535636459862 \ --date-preset last_30d \ --level ad \ -o /home/user/workspace/ad_30d.csv # 3. Daily campaign trend — last 90 days (for inflection point analysis) python scripts/meta_campaign_insights.py \ -t TOKEN \ -a act_2335535636459862 \ --date-preset last_90d \ --level campaign \ --time-increment 1 \ -o /home/user/workspace/campaign_daily_90d.csv # 4. Purchase value check (ROAS diagnostic) python scripts/meta_campaign_insights.py \ -t TOKEN \ -a act_2335535636459862 \ --date-preset last_30d \ --level campaign \ --fields campaign_name,spend,actions,action_values,purchase_roas,website_purchase_roas,cost_per_action_type \ -o /home/user/workspace/roas_check.csv # 5. Demo breakdown — last 30 days python scripts/meta_campaign_insights.py \ -t TOKEN \ -a act_2335535636459862 \ --date-preset last_30d \ --level campaign \ --breakdowns age,gender \ -o /home/user/workspace/demo_30d.csv ``` Run all five in sequence unless Max specifies otherwise. Save all outputs to `/home/user/workspace/`. --- ## Analysis Priorities Always check these in order when presenting findings: 1. **Purchase value / ROAS** — Is `website_purchase_roas` returning non-zero values? If zero across all campaigns, the Pixel is not passing the `value` parameter on Purchase events. Flag this immediately. 2. **CPA trend** — Compare current period vs. prior period. Benchmark: pre-Feb-16 CPA was ~$67. Post-Feb-16 observed range is ~$87–96. Any CPA above $100 sustained for 7+ days is a red flag. The cause of the Feb 16 inflection is still under investigation — do not assume it is resolved or confirmed. 3. **Campaign efficiency ranking** — Sort by CPA ascending. Flag any campaign >15% above account average CPA as a reallocation candidate. 4. **Top ads by purchases** — Identify creative winners. Flag any ad with CPA below $80 as a scaling candidate. 5. **Budget allocation** — What % of spend is in ASC campaigns vs. manual? ASC should be getting more budget based on efficiency data. --- ## Core Principles for Intake - **The Feb 16 inflection point is documented but root cause is unconfirmed.** CPA jumped from ~$67 to ~$88+ starting the week of Feb 16, 2026. Offer/landing page changes occurred in that timeframe and are the leading hypothesis, but have not been confirmed as the definitive cause. Creative fatigue was ruled out (frequency 1.06–1.25). Platform-level cause was ruled out (all platforms declined simultaneously). The investigation is ongoing — always approach this as an open question and avoid anchoring on any single cause until on-site conversion rate data confirms it. - **Creative fatigue threshold is 3.0 frequency.** Intake's top ads are well below this. Do not recommend creative refreshes based on frequency data unless frequency exceeds 2.5+. - **ASC (Advantage+ Shopping) outperforms Manual at Intake's scale.** ASC Creative Testing delivered $78.76 CPA on $147K vs. EVG Manual at $85.16 CPA on $404K (last 30 days as of April 2026). Budget consolidation toward ASC is consistently recommended. - **The Sale Test – CGH campaign is the model to replicate.** It ran Mar 11–25 at $35.64 CPA — 60% below account average. Understanding its offer structure is the highest-value investigation in the account. - **Revenue tracking is broken.** Zero `purchase_roas` / `website_purchase_roas` values are returning from the API. Do not attempt ROAS analysis until this is fixed. The Pixel is likely missing the `value` parameter on the Purchase event. --- ## Reporting Format When delivering analysis to Max, structure output as: 1. **ROAS Status** — Is purchase value flowing? (1 line) 2. **CPA Trend** — vs. prior period and vs. pre-Feb-16 baseline (table) 3. **Campaign Efficiency** — Ranked table: Campaign | Spend | Purchases | CPA 4. **Top Ads** — Top 5–10 by purchases with CPA and CTR 5. **Flags** — Any campaigns with CPA >15% above account average 6. **Recommended Actions** — Prioritized list, max 4 items Keep the tone direct and specific. Max is a sophisticated media buyer — no explanations of basic concepts.
