Post-call · September 14, 2026 · Meta only

Built for Evan.
Built for Mejuri.

Mejuri spends about $200K a month on Meta and builds nearly everything in-house. Evan named the pendulum on the call: "higher velocity and volume" on one side, "very meticulous about our brand" on the other, and every AI tool tried so far "never passes the brand vibe check." The 8 spec ads on this page were built the afternoon of the call from Mejuri's own product photography and verified reviews, each keeping the wordmark signature the account already runs, each testing a persona or angle the library never has. Month to month. Kickoff Wednesday, September 16 means briefs Monday and assets in the account by the end of September, before SelfMade's October 1 cutoff for new clients.

What your live account says

Format is fine. Persona and angle are the gap.

On the call Will ran a subsample of Mejuri's live Meta statics through the classifier against a fashion-category benchmark (the full library pull happens at kickoff). Formats are spread: product shot 53%, headline 27%, testimonials 7%, handwriting 3%. Personas and angles are not. 37% Young Professional and 17% Identity/Status carry the account while the three biggest angles in the category sit at zero.

8 specs, 8 personas
The slate

Every spec opens a persona or angle the account has never run, in the wordmark format the CEO already approves.

"Beyond the tech itself, I just think the framework, this is a lot of what we've been trying to drive and struggling to drive in terms of adoption." Evan, on the call. That framework is the tagging. Every ad gets a persona, an angle, a format. Iterating means holding two constant and moving one. The 8 specs are the first move on each open lane.
Every lane above maps to a spec on the work tab. None recycles an angle you already run.

What we heard on the call

Four things Evan said. Four answers.

Evan's own words from September 14, and how the engagement is built around each one.

"We want to push a lot more performance creative, get higher velocity and volume. And then we also are very meticulous about our brand."
Evan · on the call

Both, not either. Every concept ships inside Mejuri's own spec cards (built today from the live site tokens and the wordmark), and the volume is the tier: 14, 30 or 45 unique concepts a week, tagged, on top of what the in-house team makes.

"Every time we test out some of these AI-forward solutions, it never passes the brand vibe check."
Evan · on the call

Humans write and humans edit. Strategists write every brief off the gap map; editors finish every ad in Photoshop and After Effects. AI is a compass, not the pen. The CEO's weekly approval stays exactly where it is: briefs Monday, notes by Wednesday, assets Friday.

"We have our tried and true, the seven or eight things that we know work, and then maybe 20% innovation."
Evan · on the call

The 60/20/20 split makes that explicit: 60% iterate winners (hold persona, swap angle), 20% reskin winners into new formats, 20% net-new personas. The tried-and-true stays; the 20% stops being a guess.

"A lot of that spend is going towards catalog ads."
Evan · on the call

Coverage, not takeover. The slider below is the share of the $200K SelfMade covers with net-new concepts, one concept per $1,000 of covered spend. Catalog and in-house stay in-house.

Worth saying out loud: nothing here asks the creative team to change how they work. Briefs land in a Slack Connect channel on Mondays with the persona, the angle, the reason, the copy, and the format. Your team leaves notes by Wednesday. Assets arrive Friday. Your usage-rights constraint is respected: we work from the UGC and asset library you send at onboarding plus new AI and studio renders we make.

Process

Kickoff Wednesday. Briefs Monday. Assets Friday.

Evan asked what a pilot kickoff looks like. This is the calendar.

Week 0 · Wednesday, September 16

Kickoff

Account access, the brand questionnaire (the 1-to-5 "keys to the car" scale Will described: 5 is every format, 1 is only the current style), the UGC and asset library handoff, and the media buyers on the call to confirm the testing-and-scaling structure (roughly 80% net-new audiences, 20% retargeting via Advantage+).

From your side: access, the questionnaire, the asset library. That is the ask.
Week 1 · Monday, September 21

First briefs in Slack Connect

Every ad in the account tagged persona, sub-persona, angle, emotion, format, product. The gap map is what makes the briefs specific and keeps every new concept a genuine test instead of a rerun. Notes by Wednesday.

What a brief holds: the persona, the angle, the reason, the copy, and the format.
Week 1 · Friday, September 25

First assets delivered

Then weekly: briefs Monday, assets Friday. Every ad tagged and queryable in the dashboard, so the weekly approval sees persona and angle next to the creative instead of a folder of files.

Will's words: "up and running by the end of September."
Why now

SelfMade does not onboard new clients in Q4

"We generally don't take on any new customers in Q4, which is obviously October 1." Starting this month means October spends into tagged, tested creative instead of learning at holiday CPMs.

The frame: month to month, no lock-in; average client tenure about 1.8 years.
Pricing

Two tiers. Your covered spend picks one.

SelfMade pricing, applied to Mejuri, in USD. The slider is the share of your monthly Meta spend SelfMade covers with net-new concepts (one concept per $1,000 covered). At $200K total with catalog carrying a large share, covering $60K to $100K is Pro, $100K to $150K is Scale, and $150K to $200K is Velocity, the tier named for the word Evan used on the call.

What counts as a concept: a concept is an entirely new ad, not a hook alt. 1 concept = 1 static; trade 6 statics for 1 scripted video, mixed any way inside your monthly total.
