Creative systems that keep paid social from burning budget

Paid social rewards velocity, but velocity without structure becomes noise. The teams that win build a creative system: a brief template, a test backlog, naming conventions, and a kill switch when an angle fatigues.

We map pains, proof types, and CTAs in a grid so designers and media buyers can mix formats without reinventing strategy each week. Every cell should have a hypothesis you can falsify with clear primary metrics.
