Lookalike Audience Training

A structured path for acquisition teams: evaluate seeds, plan expansion, align creative, and study real cohort outcomes.

Seed evaluation

Before any lookalike ships, seeds pass a weighted rubric: volume thresholds, recency, overlap with exclusions, and signal strength by funnel stage. Teams document pass/fail per criterion.

  • 12-criteria scoring template
  • Overlap detection workflow
  • Stakeholder sign-off ritual

Expansion playbooks

Ladder documents define tier names, audience sizes, spend pacing, and refresh triggers. Playbooks include rollback steps when conversion quality drifts.

Seed 1% 3% Broad

Creative alignment

Each ladder tier maps to message hooks and asset formats. Briefs reference seed type so creative teams know whether they are speaking to purchasers, engagers, or trial users.
