Scaling your business through ads is like the holy grail; everyone wants it, but sometimes it feels impossible.
Scaling your ads successfully means taking risks, investing in significant spending, and late nights of hard work researching how to make it happen. But even after all this, countless businesses struggle to scale effectively, leading to:
Even worse, some businesses get a taste of success only to face disaster when their ad account gets banned. The question then becomes: what next?
In this blog, we’re breaking down the secrets large businesses use to scale their ads without these headaches. (Hint: it’s because they use agency ad accounts).
But wait a minute. Surely scaling through ads is easy — just bump up your spending and wait for the results, right?
Not so fast.
As your operations grow, so does the complexity of managing campaigns across multiple platforms and audiences.
This means more man-hours spent in the trenches of your Ads Manager, resulting in a far higher cost-per-acquisition (CPA) than before.
On top of this, larger ad accounts face more scrutiny and stricter enforcement of platform rules, running the risk of random suspensions or shadowbans.
This situation is worse for businesses new to the world of digital advertising looking to scale from day one.
They’ll find themselves limited by arbitrary spend amounts, facing lengthy periods of small spend jumping through hoops to prove to the algorithm that they’re a legitimate business.
All this means that scaling your business through digital ads on an individual account can feel impossible, so what is the workaround?
Enter your trusted agency partner.
Scaling your ad spend is much easier when you have an agency partner helping you. With an ad agency account, you can start scaling from day one with access to a legitimate ad account that already has a history of successful, platform-compliant campaigns.
This means you can piggyback on its reputation, ramping up your ad spend and seeing results faster.
On top of that, agency accounts often come with priority support from ad platforms, allowing for faster issue resolution and strategic guidance if your ad ever gets you into hot water.
While an agency ad account is an important part of scaling through ads, it won’t work if your ads themselves aren’t click-worthy. Before ramping up your ad spend on an agency account, it’s important to optimize your campaigns.
Here are some strategies we recommend:
Of course, you know the importance of testing your creatives and your copy. But before you put all your eggs in one basket, test multiple ad elements (creative, copy, CTA, formats) on a smaller budget and see what works.
Then, compare performance metrics such as CTR, CPC, and conversion rates to identify winners and hone in on those.
Never presume that you know the kind of creative that your audience will love. Instead, develop multiple versions of creatives (yes, even the ones you don’t personally like) to test which resonates most with different audience segments.
Our top tip? Focus on personalization to increase relevance and engagement — this is a hot trend for 2025 and beyond, so make sure that your ad creatives are hitting that personalized sweet spot.
The ad is just the first step in your sales funnel. What happens next is just as important. Before you scale up your budget, make sure to optimize landing pages for speed, clarity, and conversion-focused design.
We recommend testing various elements (e.g. your headlines and CTAs) to improve conversion rates before driving large volumes of traffic through your landing pages.
And don’t forget to check for mobile and screen-responsive designs! There’s nothing worse than losing a click to a slow-loading page or a misaligned webpage.
But even with those top tips in place (and an ad agency account on your side), you might still face a roadblock in your scaling journey.
Introducing the phenomenon of diminishing returns — the idea that, after a certain point, increasing ad spending results in smaller numbers of conversions as the target audience becomes saturated.
So, how do you combat this?
First, look at ways you can expand your audience. If you’ve been targeting the same audiences and interest groups for a while, you’ll find saturation hits hard.
The same goes for stale ad creatives — your audience. Often, small tweaks in targeting (and a little creativity) can unlock significant new audiences.
Next, focus on retargeting to strengthen the middle and bottom of your sales funnel. Our experts find that dynamic ads work well here; tailoring content to individual user behavior helps to finally close the loop.
But remember, you can’t just scale by doing more of the same. If you’re running campaigns exclusively on Meta, think about testing other platforms like TikTok or Google (you might find new audiences here, too).
Finally, keep a close eye on your marginal ROI as you scale. Incremental results will tell you when you’re reaching the tipping point where increased spend starts delivering diminishing returns.
And once you hit it, stay agile and shift your budget to the best-performing campaigns to ride that wave for longer.
Scaling your advertising efforts doesn’t have to be a nightmare, dodging account suspension, arbitrary spending caps, and diminishing returns.
With the right strategies and a reliable agency ad account to form the base of your campaign, you can maximize your ROI and sustainably scale without simply burning through a higher budget.
