EP | 731 - What the Instagram & Facebook Algorithm Actually Wants in 2026, Part 2: Stealing What's Already Working

Here's the single biggest mistake I see coaches make with ads. It's not the targeting, the budget, or the offer.

It's creating content in a vacuum.

They sit down, think about what might work, write something, run it, and wonder why it's expensive. 

Meanwhile their competitors have already done all the testing. 

Their best ads have been running 90 days. The data is right there and almost nobody is looking at it.

Today in Part 2 of this series, I'll explain exactly how you can analyze and iterate your ads based on what's working right now and if you've been wanting to get more advanced with your AI skills, this is a perfect way to do so.
