Account Audit

One continuous audit for Basecamp Supply Co.. It decides what matters and when to check back.

Executive Summary

Audited 9/9/2026

Basecamp Supply spent $11,690 across Meta and Google over the last 7 days (+4.28% WoW) for 264 conversions at a blended ROAS of 3.44, down from 3.66. The account is healthy but drifting: Meta is paying more for less while Google quietly improves, and the gap between the two platforms is now the account's main story.

Biggest issue
Meta retargeting fatigue: 'Retargeting — Cart 14d' is serving a pool it exhausted weeks ago. Roughly $300/week goes to impressions past effective frequency, and it is the largest single driver of Meta's CPA jump from $42.31 to $47.92 (+13.26%).
Biggest opportunity
Shift ~15% of Meta prospecting budget (≈$115/day) into Google PMax and refresh the jacket creative pool. Google converts at $37.92 against Meta's $47.92 with ROAS still climbing (4.0 → 4.2) — the money has a better home while Meta's creative is rebuilt.

What matters most right now. Open an insight for the full analysis and its actions.

Meta Ads
Retargeting — Cart 14d is fatigued and still burning ~$300/week

Frequency on the cart pool is far past effective range; pausing the two worst ad sets already cut the campaign's CPA ~9% — finish the job.

Meta prospecting is buying the same traffic at a higher price

Meta spend rose 4.55% WoW while conversions fell 7.69% — 'Prospecting — Trail Jackets' CPMs are climbing into seasonal competition with nothing to show for it.

Google Ads
Google is the strongest dollar in the account and it is underfed

Google CPA fell 3.85% to $37.92 while spend grew 3.7% — 'PMax — Core Catalog' is scaling without losing efficiency.

Meta Ads
Two creatives carry 61% of Meta spend — and one is aging

'BSC — Alpine Shell Hero 01' and 'BSC — Alpine Shell UGC 01' took $20,310 of the last 30 days' $33,300 Meta spend, and the hero's CTR has started to fade.

Quick Wins

Tactical fixes you can implement in under an hour.

Set a cost cap on Advantage+ — Core Catalog

Meta Ads

'Advantage+ — Core Catalog' drifted to ~$49 CPA this week against the $44.28 account blend. Set a $45 cost cap so it stops absorbing the same auction pressure hitting prospecting; loosen it once the retargeting fix lands.

Exclude Audience Network and right-column placements on prospecting

Meta Ads

~6% of Meta prospecting spend went to Audience Network and right-column placements over the last 14 days with zero tracked conversions. Exclude both across 'Prospecting — Trail Jackets' and 'Prospecting — Ridgeline Boots'.

Medium Impact15 min
Details

Raise the cost cap on Prospecting — Ridgeline Boots

Meta Ads

'Prospecting — Ridgeline Boots' delivered only $1,530 of its $1,750 weekly budget at 3.8 ROAS — the $38 cost cap is throttling the account's healthiest Meta prospecting. Raise it to $44 and watch delivery for a week before touching anything else.

Low Impact5 min

Tighten negatives on Brand Search

Google Ads

Generic queries ('waterproof hiking jacket', 'trail boots') are leaking into 'Brand Search' and have pushed its CPC up ~11% this month. Add them as negatives so non-brand traffic buys through the campaigns built and bid for it.

Broad vs interest-stack prospecting audiences
split testRunning until 9/20/2026

Meta's delivery system now finds outdoor buyers better than the hand-built interest stack. If broad (Advantage+ audience) matches or beats the stack's CPA at equal budget, prospecting can scale without the audience-saturation ceiling that is driving 'Prospecting — Trail Jackets' CPMs up.

UGC creator footage vs studio product creative
split testRunning until 9/20/2026

Trail-shot creator footage will beat polished studio creative on ROAS for cold traffic: 'BSC — Ridgeline Boots Trail Test 01' already outperforms every studio asset in its price band, and the jacket line has never had a true UGC test. A confirmed result redirects all future creative briefs.

Creative

Top 8 of 8 creatives by spend · analyzed 9/9/2026

Retire the fatigued jacket pair before it drags the account

'BSC — Alpine Shell Hero 02' is a near-duplicate returning 1.8x against the original's 3.9x, and 'BSC — Sale Static 01' is the account's least efficient ad at 1.6x. Pause both and let the three new jacket concepts inherit the budget.

Scale the trail-test angle from boots to jackets

'BSC — Ridgeline Boots Trail Test 01' is the account's most efficient creative at 4.1x ROAS. Brief the same treatment for the Alpine Shell — real conditions, spoken review, visible weather — as the lead concept of the jacket refresh.

Settle the UGC question with the running test

'BSC — Boots Studio Flatlay 01' losing to creator footage is one data point; the live UGC vs studio split test turns it into a decision. Hold new studio briefs until it reads out.

Add problem-solution copy to the next brief cycle

The best ROAS-per-impression in the account sits on its only problem-solution creative. Two more scripts — storm protection and pack weight — diversify copy beyond the two angles that carry 83% of spend.

Watchlist

4

Trending the wrong way but not yet critical. The next audits keep an eye on these.

Retargeting frequency (7-day) on the cart pool

The remaining ad sets sit at 6.8 weekly frequency and climbing. If it crosses 8 again after the pool refresh, the audience itself is too small and the window should shrink from 14 to 7 days.

Critical

Meta prospecting CPM

Up ~9% in two weeks on 'Prospecting — Trail Jackets' with flat CTR. If it keeps climbing after the budget trim, fresh audiences are the next lever — the broad-vs-stack experiment reads directly on this.

Monitor

PMax share of Google conversions

'PMax — Core Catalog' is ~58% of Google conversions and rising as it takes new budget. Watch that growth comes from incremental queries, not cannibalized brand search — a widening brand-CPC gap would be the tell.

Monitor

Brand Search CPC

You dismissed the negatives cleanup — a defensible call while brand volume stays cheap — but brand CPC rose ~11% this month. If the creep continues, that decision is worth revisiting next audit.
