FAQ

Start with setters or forms?

If ACV is high and volume is inbound, use setters. Otherwise a 2‑step form + VSL is simpler.

How many creatives before judging?

At least 20 hooks per angle before deciding. Kill or iterate quickly.

What breaks show-up rate?

No SMS confirm, unclear value, long wait times, and calendar friction. Fix those first.

🌍 Outlook for 2026

Creative velocity beats media budgets. Teams that pair UGC iteration with setter ops and simple guarantees keep CAC stable while scaling.
