Task Breakdown:

A. Gather Data from All Active Campaigns

1. Collect Key Metrics:
   • Pull data from all platforms where campaigns are running (e.g., Facebook Ads, Google Ads, Instagram, YouTube, etc.).
   • Key metrics to include:
     • Impressions: Number of times the ads were shown.
     • Clicks: Number of clicks on the ads.
     • Click-Through Rate (CTR): Percentage of people who clicked on the ad after seeing it.
     • Conversions: Number of completed desired actions (e.g., purchases, sign-ups).
     • Conversion Rate (CVR): Percentage of clicks that led to conversions.
     • Cost per Acquisition (CPA): The cost of acquiring a customer or lead.
     • Return on Ad Spend (ROAS): Revenue generated per dollar spent on ads.
     • Cost per Click (CPC): The cost of each click on the ad.
     • Engagement Metrics (if applicable): Likes, shares, comments, or other interactions for social media ads.
2. Segmentation Data:
   • Break down performance by different segments:
     • Audience: Performance of different audience groups (e.g., demographics, interests, behaviors).
     • Platforms/Channels: How each platform or channel is performing (e.g., Facebook vs. Google Ads).
     • Ad Creatives: How each ad format (e.g., carousel, video, static image) is performing.
3. Budget and Spend Data:
   • Track how much budget was allocated to each campaign and whether the spend was optimized based on performance.
   • Compare the actual spend vs. budget allocation to assess efficiency.

B. Analyze Campaign Performance and Insights

1. Identify High-Performing Campaigns:
   • Highlight which campaigns, ad sets, or creatives delivered the highest ROI, CTR, CVR, and other key metrics.
   • Look for patterns in successful campaigns (e.g., specific audience segments, types of creatives, or platforms that are more effective).
2. Spot Underperforming Areas:
   • Identify which campaigns or segments did not meet expectations. Focus on areas with poor CTR, high CPA, or low ROAS.
   • Analyze why these campaigns underperformed. Was it targeting, creative, budget allocation, or external factors (e.g., market conditions, competition)?
3. Challenges and Roadblocks:
   • Provide a detailed analysis of any challenges or issues that were encountered during the period. This could include:
     • Budget inefficiency or overspend.
     • Audience fatigue or poor targeting.
     • Underperforming creatives or poor engagement.
     • Platform issues, such as ad disapproval or policy changes.
     • External factors impacting performance (e.g., seasonality, industry trends, or competitor activity).

C. Generate Performance Summary

1. Overview of Key Results:
   • Provide a high-level summary of overall performance, including:
     • Total spend
     • Total revenue generated
     • Key performance trends (e.g., improving or declining ROAS)
     • Achievements and campaign milestones (e.g., best-performing creative, most efficient audience segment)
2. Performance by Platform:
   • Break down the performance by individual platform (Facebook, Google, etc.), noting which platform had the highest ROI and which one may need adjustments.
3. Creative Performance:
   • Summarize which types of creatives (image, video, carousel, etc.) performed best. Highlight any variations that stood out (e.g., a specific color scheme, CTA wording, or visual elements).
4. Audience Insights:
   • Provide insights into which audience segments worked best and delivered the highest engagement and conversions. This could include specific age groups, geographic locations, or interests.

D. Provide Optimization Recommendations

1. Ad Creative Recommendations:
   • Based on the data, suggest adjustments to ad creatives (e.g., new design ideas, copy tweaks, or testing new formats like video ads).
   • Recommend strategies to refresh ads and reduce fatigue, such as rotating new creatives or optimizing CTA placement.
2. Targeting Refinements:
   • Suggest adjustments to audience targeting based on performance data, such as:
     • Expanding or narrowing audience segments.
     • Adjusting demographic or behavioral targeting.
     • Testing new custom or lookalike audiences.
3. Budget Adjustments:
   • Recommend budget reallocations to prioritize high-performing campaigns or scale successful ads.
   • Suggest adjustments to bidding strategies, such as switching to automated bidding or adjusting bids to reduce CPA.
4. Platform and Placement Recommendations:
   • Advise on platform optimizations, like reallocating budget to the platforms with the best performance.
   • Consider adjusting placements (e.g., switching from Newsfeed ads to Stories or YouTube ads to Google Display Network) based on performance data.
5. Testing Opportunities:
   • Identify areas for further testing, including new audience segments, ad creatives, or bidding strategies.
   • Suggest potential A/B tests based on trends from high-performing ads (e.g., testing new CTA buttons or different headline formats).
