FROM A CLIENT
“I learned more in one hour with Jared than I learned from my previous agency who spent $5 million on Facebook ads for my brand.”
— Josh M.

A different way to spend the money

At $15K in ad spend, a $5K retainer is a big bite.

That’s $20,000 out the door. Only $15,000 reaches the ad account.

If you’re willing to run the ads, the Lab gives you training and weekly coaching for $499 a month. In that same budget, you have $4,501 more available for ads.

You learn what to test, what the numbers mean and when to leave an ad alone. You have someone to ask when the answer isn’t obvious.

01 / LEARN

Start with the problem in front of you.

Testing, creative, copy or the funnel. Open the relevant course and work through the decisions behind it.

Put it to work with your own ads.

You run the account. Use the framework to plan a test, review the results and decide what happens next.

03 / ASK

Bring the question a course can’t answer.

“Is this ready to scale?” “Why are these leads so bad?” Bring your numbers to the weekly live call with Jared and work through what to do.

The parts of the account you need to understand.

From the first creative test to the follow-up after a booked call. Each course tackles a different job.

Hire an agency when it makes sense

Learn enough to be a better client, too.

When the business can support a bigger ad budget and you want the day-to-day work off your plate, an agency can make sense.

By then, you’ll understand the testing, the creative and the numbers well enough to ask better questions—and know whether the answers hold up.

The Lab is for owners willing to run the account or work with someone in-house who does.

Join the Ad Manager Scaling Lab

Run the account with someone to turn to.

Nine courses give you the framework. Weekly live calls give you a place to work through the decision in front of you. Keep applying what you learn to your own ads.

Is this done-for-you ad management?

You or your team run the campaigns and make the ads. The Lab provides the training and coaching to help you make those decisions.

Do I have to watch all nine courses first?

Start with the course that fits what you’re working on. Use the rest as you need it. Bring questions from your account to the weekly live call.

Is it for e-commerce or book-a-call businesses?

Both. The courses cover testing, creative and copy, with separate material for e-commerce funnels and book-a-call funnels.
