+ Just how frothy is the AI bubble, anyway?

Did someone say Free Shoes?

OH HECK YES. Oct 28th, in none other than NYC it-very-self 🗽 we’re hosting a Sip ‘n Shop event for W6ers.

We’re taking over Koio in SoHo for a bit of nosh, a bit of sit, and a bit of shop. Everyone gets a free pair of shoes on their way out!

Just how frothy is the AI bubble?

Why curiosity beats clarity

There’s a reason the best ads don’t tell you everything — they make you lean in.

  • The ad strategy that works because it looks bad

  • Why actors beat influencers (and how to find them)

  • The 10-second UGC setup you can steal right now

  • And the one “shortcut” tool top brands pretend isn’t public

If you think clarity sells, you’re only half right. Read the full piece before your next ad gets too polished for its own good.

🚨 One of the best updates in the history of Meta ads 🚨

➡️ Purchase Profit Optimization

Here's what it is and how it works:

While so far, we only had the option to optimize for Purchase Value, now FB is allowing us to optimize for profit

In order to do that, we first need to create an additional parameter called "net_revenue"

How to create it?

  • You know your email flows aren’t performing like they should—maybe even leaking revenue in ways you can’t see. 😬 Most agencies charge for “upgrades” without proving they actually worked. We don’t guess. We test, measure, and optimize—because every email should earn its keep. 🚀 Learn about the Email Flow CRO method here.
