Inclusions that survive handoff

Show the wiring

We diagram lists, UTMs, and exclusions before touching platforms so handoffs stay legible.

Name what is unknown

Briefs include explicit gaps — better than fake precision that wastes ad spend.

Keep critiques kind

Feedback targets the work, not the person; we model that in every critique block.

Retire modules fast

When platforms change, we sunset screenshots instead of pretending they still hold.

Live redlines

Cohort calls include live redlines on real brief fragments — names and numbers scrubbed — so you see how we challenge vague targeting language.

The flow from brief to live cells

  1. 01 — Intake

    We read your brief like a media ops lead: lists, UTMs, exclusions, creative versions.

  2. 02 — Diagram

    Paper or FigJam sketch before platforms; name owners for each arrow.

  3. 03 — Lab

    Hands-on cells with stop rules posted visibly on the wall.

  4. 04 — Retro

    Short written retro even when tests fail; feeds the next cohort update.

From recent cohorts

“Meta Ads Audience Labs forced our naming to match what analytics exports — boring win, huge time save.”
