At a high level, we’ll create variations of the same ad with minor changes (e.g., different images, headlines, or calls-to-action) and run them against each other to see which performs best. Performance metrics such as click-through rates, conversion rates, and engagement are tracked, and the best-performing creatives are identified for further refinement or scaling.
