I successfully scaled ad spend while maintaining efficiency by launching ASC+ campaigns with a strong focus on creative testing. By analyzing performance daily and making real-time optimizations—whether pausing underperformers, refreshing creative, or adjusting bids—I was able to steadily increase budget without compromising ROAS or CPA. This agile approach allowed for scalable growth while keeping performance tight and aligned with client goals.See More
