I love taking photos of groups of people, particularly founders. The first round of photos I default to “cheese”. The second round of photos I make them say “product market fit” and then it genuinely makes them laugh (in pain) 🤣

My favourite anonymous street artist lives in the same area as me, and recently they’ve been much more active. All around the city they graffiti positive messages, and everytime I’m down, I always come across their art like a little Easter egg and it makes my day. Last year I came across a gallery selling their art, after almost 3 years of following their work and attempting to find them. The gallery owner was moving and could not fit the piece through their new gallery, so I picked it up. I negotiated hard though, the piece was originally around $1100, but I got it for $700, since I sent pictures of the artists’ precious work around the city. After closing the deal, I got laid off the next week, and the piece was due to arrive, which took 4 movers to lift it through my balcony. I was very grateful to receive what I thought was a sign from the universe. I’ll put the piece I bought in the comments below.

Any recommendations for headphones? I've had the Bose XM4s, regular airpods, Airpods maxes. I'm looking for headphones that are not to heavy on the head and really make things sound *clear*. I listen to a lot of jazz, bossa nova, pop etc.

No idea why I’m thinking about this, but in high school I did an art project where I approached strangers on the streets and photographed them while they described their darkest fears. Most of them described being alone or being sick and unable to take care of the people around them

Ok I’ve been getting feedback that people like hearing about ads, so I’ll share what I learned today. I was mentally fatigued bc I’ve launched maybe 8-9 creatives the past 3 weeks, with at least 2 variations, and a maximum of 4 variations. So total maybe 30 ads in 3 weeks. I learned a lot about fonts, colours, format, made a million bazillion headlines. My head was just hurting so today I had to do something different. I focused today on mainly campaign structure, and using a lookalike audience to run a sales campaign. The problem is that whenever you run a sales campaign, it automatically categorizes your audience as “advantage+” (their AI audience tool) and you have to manually turn it off. But it’s hidden deep in settings, and ChatGPT was not updated on meta ads. I watched like 7 YouTube videos, I looked through Twitter, Reddit, and probably 3-4 Facebook documentation articles on lookalike audiences. The problem is that semantic search on their docs are very bad, so the information was hidden deep. Eventually I was able to turn it on manual and do what I wanted. The second thing I learned is that I’ve been killing ads too fast. I wanted my creatives to be so good that when I turn the campaign on they just print money. That obviously is not happening and I blew a bunch of money learning. But that’s what you gotta do to get there. So I’m letting my new campaigns run a bit longer just to see, even if they aren’t profitable in the first 24 hours. My product is fairly expensive so I have to play with a higher adspend to start. The last thing I learned is that for meta to actually give me good estimates, I need to do at least 50 sales thru ads. I’ve done a few but no where near that amount. So I changed my campaign such that I focus on add to carts, so my campaign can warm up faster and meta can have more data sooner. Even though I didn’t solve my problem of my brain hurting from thinking and searching I’m glad I learned today 😇
