Train Meta's Algorithm for New Customer Acquisition
Wicked Reports’ Advanced Signal transforms your attribution data into laser-focused conversion events that teach Meta to find net-new buyers, not retarget existing customers.
Create custom events for new customer acquisition
Stop Advantage Plus campaigns from retargeting existing customers
Scale campaigns that actually grow your customer base
The Scaling Problem Every E-commerce Brand Faces
Your attribution data shows campaigns are working, but scaling them just means spending more money on existing customers. Meta's Advantage Plus algorithms optimize for easy wins—people who already know your brand—instead of finding net-new buyers.
The result?
✗ Higher ad spend, same customer count.
Clear Decisions in 3 Steps
Step 1: Segment Customer Data
Advanced Signal automatically identifies new vs. repeat customer purchases using your Wicked Reports attribution data.
Step 2: Create Custom Events
Choose which products and customer types to optimize for. Advanced Signal creates conversion events that fire only for new customers.
Step 3: Train Meta's Algorithm
Use these focused events in your campaigns so Meta learns to find buyers who haven't purchased from you before.
