Trying Bid Caps? Here’s A Strategy You Can Test

You already know we’re big fans of Meta’s cost caps.

We’ve even advocated sticking to those when scaling with Meta’s bid strategies.

However, if you’re curious as to how to make bid caps work for you, here’s a strategy you can test in your store:

While @MattiSchroder’s logic is solid, you’ll have to make sure you understand your break-even CPA (cost per acquisition) thoroughly for it to work.

NOTE: As Mathias elaborates in response to other advertisers, the right campaign setup is key. The campaign is set up as a high-budget CBO campaign, with a different bid for each ad set — based on the product/offer it’s promoting.

#FeaturedAd - Daring.

Brand: Daring.Category: Food & BeverageFormat: Single Image (Story)

Daring. Add - Plant-based chicken with a burger as the focus

WHY IT WORKS:

What’s never a bad idea for advertising food?

A delicious food shot — and somehow you just can’t go wrong with a juicy, loaded burger.

Daring. uses this simple advertising mantra to market its plant-based chicken alternative. And just in case you thought meat alternatives were highly processed, there’s some objection-busting right up center — the meat is made from a short list of simple ingredients.

The ad catches the eye long enough for you to read the caption — replacing your chicken with their plant-based alternative just once a week makes a huge impact on the planet. Now that’s some clever advertising. Their meat alternative is not targeted at vegans, but at every conscious shopper looking to make an impact.
