How are you creating enough ad creatives to test?

2 Upvotes

Creating a product is easier than ever.

But getting people to discover it, use it, and pay for it?

That's still hard.

You need to research competitors, find winning ideas, create enough ads to test, launch campaigns, and figure out what's actually working.

And then do it all over again.

We kept asking:

What if AI could handle the entire marketing workflow, from research to results?

So we built Fastlane 2.0.

An AI-powered marketing platform where you can:

  • ⁠Research your brand and competitors
  • ⁠Find trends and winning creative ideas
  • ⁠Generate AI video and image ads
  • ⁠Launch campaigns on Meta
  • ⁠Publish content to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube
  • ⁠Analyze results and create more of what works

It also comes with Senna, an AI agent that works alongside you throughout the process.

Instead of juggling multiple marketing tasks and tools, you get one workflow that learns from your results and helps you make smarter campaigns.

The goal is to help businesses test more ideas, create better ads, and spend less time managing marketing.

We launched Fastlane 2.0 on Product Hunt.

Curious: What's your biggest marketing challenge right now finding ideas, creating enough content, launching campaigns, or knowing what to scale?

Babylovegrowth Review - Pros & Cons after 30 days

1 Upvotes

I ran babylovegrowth for a full 30 days on one of my sites. Here’s the unfiltered experience.

What Babylovegrowth Actually Is:

It’s marketed as an all-in-one AI SEO + GEO autopilot. You connect your site, and it handles:

  • Keyword research & content planning
  • 30 AI-written articles per month
  • Auto-publishing to WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Wix, etc.
  • Basic technical audits
  • Some tracking of brand mentions in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini

Price starts at expensive $99/month for the Grow plan.

Cons:

  • Content quality is mediocre most articles still need heavy manual editing and often sound generic
  • Backlink exchange feels like they just buy low-quality links from third-party.
  • Trustpilot practices are shady - the company has been flagged for offering incentives for reviews, and the rating is suspended or marked as a breach of guidelines
Trustpilot - Babylovegrowth Breach of guidelines This company has been offering incentives for reviews.

TL:DR Ran BabyLoveGrowth for 30 days. Content is mediocre and needs some editing, but the real deal breaker is their Trustpilot guideline breaches and review incentives that permanently killed any trust I had in the company.

How Clay went from a niche data tool to $7.1B, broken into plays

1 Upvotes

Clay went from $1M to $100M ARR and now counts 17,000+ customers, including 80% of the Forbes AI 50. We broke the run into eight plays. A few that stood out:https://slatehq.com/teardowns/clay

  • Naming a role. Clay coined “GTM engineer” and built the guides, job board and community around it.
  • Creators doing the selling. YouTube and LinkedIn creators teach Clay workflows, and local Clay Clubs carry it offline.
  • Answer-first pages. FAQ and guide pages earn about half of Clay’s AI citations.
  • A gap it leaves open. Competitors write most of the “Clay alternatives” pages, so Clay doesn’t control that conversation.

Which of these would work for a company without Clay’s funding?

First-ever Reel for a client hit 334K+ views in 24 hours. Here's the proof.

We recently launched a brand-new Instagram account for a client through Project Monet, our creative and social media agency.

The account was confirmed active by October 17, 2026, and we published its very first Reel on October 21 at 9:00 PM IST.

Exactly one day later, we checked the Instagram analytics.

The results after approximately 24 hours:

- 334,944 views

- 270,012 accounts reached

- 53,411 total interactions (Instagram-reported)

- 34,193 likes

- 10,924 saves

- 4,594 shares

- 72 comments

- 179 total account followers

One account. One published Reel. Its first 24 hours.

What did we do before posting?

We spent roughly a week on positioning, identifying the intended audience, developing the creative direction, and preparing the launch.

Instead of immediately producing content, we started with a specific question: Who are we trying to reach, and what would actually resonate with them?

That informed the first piece of content.

The timeline:

- October 17: New account confirmed active

- October 21, 9:00 PM IST: First Reel published

- October 22, 9:00 PM IST: 334,944 views recorded

We also captured earlier milestones:

- Under 12 hours: 72,509 views

- Approximately 21 hours: 251,585 views

- Approximately 24 hours: 334,944 views

What did we learn?

Having a clear audience hypothesis before publishing gave us a deliberate starting point.

But one successful Reel doesn't establish sustainable growth. The real test is whether we can turn initial attention into consistent, relevant engagement.

The project is still ongoing.

I've included the timestamped Instagram analytics as supporting evidence, with identifying details removed to protect client confidentiality.

I'm sharing this as an early result from our work at Project Monet, not a promise that every first post will perform this way.

For anyone managing client accounts: after a first Reel performs this strongly, would you double down on the same format or test adjacent content ideas first?
