--- name: meta-creative-analysis description: "Use when analyzing Meta ad creatives: video hook/hold rates, 4 diagnostic scenarios, image/catalog rules, creative pattern recognition." --- # Meta Ads - Creative Analysis Workflow > Metric definitions (Hook Rate, Hold Rate, CTR, performance benchmarks, video funnel) live in `meta/tool-fundamentals` and auto-load with this skill. Do NOT redefine them here. This skill is the workflow for diagnosing creative performance after the metrics are loaded. ## Inputs You Need Before applying this skill, ensure you have: - Ad-level video metrics (`video_play_actions`, `video_thruplay_watched_actions`, `actions` with `video_view`) — see `tool-fundamentals` for the exact fields and the Hook/Hold formulas. - Account-level Hold Rate baseline from a 90-day account-level pull. - Pareto set of ads (cumulative spend ≤ 90%). ## Diagnostic Scenarios for Video Ads Apply the benchmarks from `tool-fundamentals` (Hook Rate / Hold Rate / CTR thresholds) to classify each Pareto video ad into one of these scenarios. ### Scenario 1: Good Hook, Poor Hold - Hook Rate Good (≥ 40%), Hold Rate Poor (< Account Avg), CTR Average - **Root cause**: Hook stops scroll, but content loses interest after 3 seconds. - **Fix**: Keep the intro/hook. Rebuild seconds 3+ — move value prop earlier, show product sooner, use variety (B-roll + testimonial + selfie mix), keep value props concise. ### Scenario 2: Average Everything - Hook Rate Average (26–39%), Hold Rate ≈ Avg, CTR Average - **Root cause**: Nothing stands out. Room for improvement everywhere. - **Fix**: Priority 1 — improve hook first (if they don't stop, nothing else matters). Use `facebook_analyze_ad_creative_by_id_or_url` to assess visual relevance and messaging. Then rebuild remaining clips for hold rate. ### Scenario 3: Poor Hook - Hook Rate Poor (< 25%), Hold Rate any, CTR any - **Root cause**: People aren't stopping to watch. - **Fix**: Rebuild hook completely. Compare to hooks in top-performing ads. Test variations: different visual opening, text overlay, audio hook, problem vs benefit statement, question vs statement. ### Scenario 4: Great Hook + Hold, Poor CTR - Hook Rate Good, Hold Rate > Acct Avg + 25%, CTR Poor (< 0.65%) - **Root cause**: People watch the whole video but don't click. CTA weak or unclear. - **Fix**: Check comments for negative sentiment. If fine — strengthen CTA (more prominent visual, clearer verbal, urgency/scarcity, better landing page alignment). ## Decision Framework by Ad Format ### Single Image - High CPM (30%+ above Pareto avg) + Low ROAS → **Pause ad** (expensive audience, not converting). - Low CTR (30%+ below Pareto avg) + Low ROAS → Check comments first. If fine, test variations with stronger CTA. - Good metrics (within 20% of Pareto avg) → Create variations (copy, angle, or format). ### Single Video - Apply Scenarios 1–4 above based on the Hook / Hold / CTR profile. - High CPM + Low ROAS → Pause ad. - Low CTR + Low ROAS → Check comments, then test stronger CTA variations. ### Advantage+ Catalog - Meta does NOT provide conversion data per product ID. - Use spend + CTR as proxy for product performance. - High CPM + Low ROAS → Pause ad, test different product set. - Low CTR + Low ROAS → Identify low-CTR products and remove from set. ## Creative Content Analysis Use `facebook_analyze_ad_creative_by_id_or_url` to get subjective analysis of: - Main angle, assumed user persona, ad format - Visual elements, visual hook quality (video), audio hook quality (video) Always show the creative metric visualization when using this tool successfully. ## Pattern Recognition Across Top Ads Among top Pareto ads, analyze each with `facebook_analyze_ad_creative_by_id_or_url` to identify: - Common angle patterns (which selling points repeat across winners) - Common format patterns (image vs video vs carousel) - Common hook patterns (videos — what stops the scroll) - Common copy patterns (tone, length, structure) Use winning patterns to guide new creative variations. ## Variation Strategy **When ad performs well**: Copy variations (same angle, different words) → Angle variations (different selling point) → Format variations (same message, different format) → Hook variations (videos). **When ad performs poorly**: | Issue | Action | |-------|--------| | Hook Rate poor | Rebuild hook using winning hooks | | Hook good, Hold poor | Rebuild middle section | | Hook good, Hold good, CTR poor | Strengthen CTA | | All metrics poor | Test completely new approach |
