Needs attention

4 FLAGGED
LinkedIn — "Trade Program" Sponsored Content
CPA $112 (2.5× target), CTR 0.31%. Audience overlap with Meta B2B set at 64%. Recommend pausing single-image units, keep only the doc-ad lead form, and redeploy $9k to Google PMax.

YouTube — "Craft Story" 30s skippable
View-through rate is excellent (38%) but post-click CVR is 0.7% — half the channel median. Landing page is the homepage; swap to /collections/oak and add sitelinks before scaling June flight.

Meta — Advantage+ Catalog (broad)
Frequency hit 6.2 over trailing 7 days; CPA crept from $34 → $47. Classic fatigue curve. Refresh with the four new lifestyle stills and reset the learning phase before Memorial weekend push.

Reddit — r/malelivingspace takeover
CPM jumped +48% WoW after the community went default-subscribed. CPA still tolerable ($71) but trending wrong. Cap daily at $300 and shift remaining test budget to r/BuyItForLife conversation ads.

What's working

$24 CPA3.8× ROAS
Google PMax — "Spring Refresh" asset group SCALE +30%
Best blended unit in the account. Feed-driven, leaning into oak & walnut SKUs. Headroom to $2.2k/day before diminishing returns per bid sim.
$29 CPA142% goal
TikTok Spark — "Unboxing the Arden Shelf" (creator: @flatlay.home)
UGC outperforming brand-shot video 2.3:1 on CVR. Whitelist two more creators from the same cohort; brief already with the agency.
$33 CPA4.6% CVR
Meta Reels — "Assembled in 60 seconds"
Highest CVR creative on Meta. Hook retention 71% at 3s. Duplicate into a Stories placement-only ad set to isolate the cheap inventory.
$11 CPA9.1× ROAS
Google Search — Brand defense exact-match
Cheap, boring, essential. Competitor "Fernhollow" bidding on our terms again — IS lost to rank up 6pts. Hold budget, raise tCPA ceiling $2.
$19 CPA6.1× ROAS
Meta Retargeting — 7-day cart abandon, DPA
Evergreen winner. Nothing to change — just don't let prospecting cannibalize its budget when ASC reshuffles.

Spend mix by channel

6 platforms
Google Meta YT TikTok
Meta is 35% of spend but 37% of conversions — slightly over-indexing. LinkedIn is 6% of spend, 2.5% of conv.

Budget pacing

$487k / $780k
Day 58 of 91 (64% of quarter elapsed). Pacing 1.5pts under linear — $11k of headroom available for Memorial-weekend heavy-up without touching reserve.
Spent Remaining

Efficiency outlook

Green
Blended CPA beating target by 8.4%. Risk: YouTube + LinkedIn together drag blend up ~$2.10. If both are paused/fixed, projected EOQ CPA lands at $38.90 with 13,400 conversions (114% of goal).
