Weekly Volume

How Many Ads to Create Each Week

In the current Meta environment, creative is your targeting. Enough variety lets the algorithm find your audience without causing ad fatigue.

1–2
New Creatives Per Week

Test one new hook or visual style each week. This prevents ad fatigue where people see the same thing too often.

4–6
Active Ads Per Month

Keep 2–3 winners running and rotate in 2–3 new tests. Let the algorithm optimise delivery across your best performers.

Pro Tip
Same Script, New Format

You don't always need a new script. Try the same copy with a different headline, thumbnail image, or video format.

Rotation Strategy

1

Launch 2–3 scripts simultaneously in a single ad set to let Meta's algorithm identify the best performer.

2

After 5–7 days, pause any ad with a CTR below 1% and replace it with a fresh creative from your backlog.

3

Keep winners running until their frequency score exceeds 2.5 — that's when fatigue typically starts.

4

Refresh winning scripts by changing the thumbnail, headline, or first 3 seconds of video before retiring them.

Daily Budget

Budget Tiers and Expected Results

For a local buyers agency in Toowoomba, you don't need a corporate budget — but you need enough to feed the algorithm. Start at $30–$50/day.

Testing Phase
$20/day
Monthly spend~$600
Est. daily clicks10–13
Est. monthly leads5–10

Good for finding which script works best, but results will be slower. Ideal for the first 2 weeks of testing.

Recommended
Growth Phase
$50/day
Monthly spend~$1,500
Est. daily clicks25–35
Est. monthly leads15–25

Ideal for consistently filling your calendar with discovery calls. Enough data for the algorithm to optimise effectively.

Scaling Phase
$100+/day
Monthly spend$3,000+
Est. daily clicks50–70+
Est. monthly leads30–50+

Only move here once you know your Cost Per Lead and your team can handle the volume. Scale what's already working.

Note: Estimates based on ~$1.50 CPC (Australian real estate average). Actual results depend on creative quality, audience relevance, and landing page conversion rate.

The Off-Market Hook — 30s Video

Target: Time-poor professionals in Toowoomba. Goal: Drive traffic to landing page.

0–3s
Visual

Quick cuts of attractive Toowoomba homes at golden hour. Two homes with 'Sold' signs visible. Fast-paced, slightly urgent energy.

Editor Note

Hook — grab attention visually. No voiceover yet. Subtle, slightly tense background music.

3–12s
Visual

Aaron walking confidently down a tree-lined Toowoomba street. A 'Sold' sign is visible behind him. He looks directly at camera, natural and relaxed.

Voiceover

"About a third of the homes our clients buy in Toowoomba never actually hit the public market. Most buyers don't even know they exist."

Editor Note

Key stat delivered calmly. Music softens. Aaron's tone is grounded, not salesy.

12–22s
Visual

B-roll: Aaron and Holly reviewing property documents in their office. Cut to: a family walking through a new home, smiling.

Voiceover

"Holly and I spend our days talking to agents and finding those pre-market opportunities — so you don't have to waste your weekends chasing open homes."

Editor Note

Show the service in action. Warm, natural lighting. Convey ease and professionalism.

22–30s
Visual

Text overlay on screen: 'Learn How Successful Buyers Win' and 'FindersKey.com.au/landing-page'. Arrow animation pointing to CTA. Finders Key logo.

Voiceover

"I've put together a short video that explains exactly how we help buyers win in this market. Click the link below to have a look."

Editor Note

Clear CTA. Text must be large and readable on mobile. Music resolves to a calm, confident close.

Format

9:16 vertical (Reels/Stories) or 1:1 square (Feed). Film both if possible.

Music

Subtle, reassuring, slightly optimistic. Not too upbeat. Professional and calm throughout.

Captions

Always add captions. 85% of Meta video is watched without sound. Use bold white text with dark outline.
