The commercial problem

Unsubstantiated result claims

Before/after content and efficacy claims are restricted on major platforms and by consumer law in many markets.

Loss-making first orders

High repeat rates can hide negative first-order economics unless cohorts are tracked.

Category-specific ad rules

Cosmetic and health-adjacent products face different policies by product type and region.

What FOCUSADS would actually do

  1. Set a break-even and target return from your contribution margin, per product group where it differs.
  2. Fix feed quality and purchase tracking (including server-side where needed) before scaling.
  3. Split new-customer acquisition from returning-customer revenue so CAC is honest.
  4. Report MER and margin-adjusted return alongside platform numbers, never blended.

Primary candidates

Supporting or test

Candidates from the reference taxonomy. Each is checked for account, market, format and policy eligibility before launch.

What you will need to provide

  • Margin by product group, return rate, average order value
  • Product feed or catalogue access
  • Ecommerce platform and analytics access
  • Stock and promotion calendar

Cosmetic and health claim rules, influencer disclosure, formulation and certification accuracy require verification per market.

What happens next

  1. Build your plan

    Ten minutes of questions about your market, economics and current setup. You get channel Priority Scores, a landing-page and tracking decision, and every cost line before anyone talks to you.

  2. Strategist review

    A FOCUSADS strategist checks the plan against your accounts and data, and flags anything the engine could not know.

  3. Agreement and access

    You approve scope and fees. We request least-privilege access to your own ad accounts. You never share passwords.

  4. Launch with measurement

    Tracking and landing pages are verified before media spend starts, so the first report measures business results.

Plan sales campaigns on net revenue and contribution margin after returns and cancellations, not gross platform ROAS.
