  • Ep. 22: How I Built a Custom GPT That Writes Meta Ads Better Than Most Copywriters
    Feb 6 2026

    In this video, I’ll show you how I built an AI-powered GPT that can generate Meta-compliant ad copy in under 30 seconds, transforming your ad strategy and boosting conversions. 70% of Meta ads fail before they even get a click, not because of your offer, but because your ad copy doesn't connect with your audience emotionally.With my custom GPT, you’ll get five powerful emotional ad angles for A/B testing, complete with headlines, long-form and short-form copy, and everything formatted for Meta’s compliance standards. No fluff, no M-dashes, just pure conversion-focused copy inspired by the greats like David Ogilvy, Dan Kennedy, and Sabri Subi.I’ll walk you through the process of how this GPT works, the different frameworks it uses (ADA, PAS, FAB), and how it’s trained to generate winning ads. Plus, I’ll give you a live demo showing how you can use it to create compelling Meta ads quickly and efficiently.If you want access to the exact GPT we use at our agency, as well as exclusive training, templates, and more, be sure to check out Great Marketing Systems.

    Jan 15 2026

    Are you still burning budget A/B testing your Facebook ads? In this episode, Rafael Hernandez sits down with insurance industry veteran Luis to break down his "LEAD Framework"—a 4-step system that generated over 5,000 high-intent leads last year for just $4 each.

    Luis reveals why he never pays to test creatives, how he uses organic content to "hack" the ad algorithm, and the specific automation strategy involving a screenshot that doubled his lead conversion rates overnight. Whether you are an insurance agent, agency owner, or digital marketer, this episode will change how you view paid traffic.

    In this episode, we cover:

    • The LEAD Framework: How to turn organic videos into paid winners without guessing.

    • Creative-Led Targeting: Why "Broad" targeting beats detailed audiences in 2026.

    • The "Screenshot Strategy": The exact SMS automation that gets a 24% response rate.

    • Emotional Selling: Why logic kills sales and stories print money.

    • Scaling to $50k: How one agent used this system to generate $50,000 in commissions in 90 days.

  • Ep. 18: The Truth About Making $426K (My 2025 Mistakes)
    Jan 7 2026

    In 2025, my agency generated exactly $426,000 in revenue. While that is a 13.9% increase from the previous year, I still fell $74,000 short of my $500k goal.

    In this unfiltered annual recap, I’m breaking down the specific mistakes I made, the lessons I learned from managing $10M+ in ad spend, and the roadmap I’m using to hit $1 Million in revenue in 2026.

    If you are an agency owner or entrepreneur, this video goes beyond just Facebook ads. I talk about the trap of "Systems vs. Sales," why pivoting niches too fast killed our momentum, and the "Pay Per Lead" (PPL) business model that completely changed my perspective on scaling.

    In this video, I cover:

    • The Revenue Breakdown: Real numbers, including a painful $20k loss due to a Stripe subscription error.

    • The "Notion Trap": Why I spent too much time building the perfect Notion agency system and not enough time selling (and the advice Neil Patel's partner gave me about this).

    • The PPL Pivot: How a mortgage client referral led me down the rabbit hole of the Affiliate/Pay Per Lead model, which is far more scalable than standard retainers.

    • Personal Growth: Training for a half-marathon, fixing my cholesterol, and the impact of reading the Bible on my business mindset.

    • 2026 Vision Board: Why I'm printing my vision board and putting it everywhere (even the restroom) to stay focused this year.

    Jan 2 2026

    Imagine a business model where you don't need a warehouse, you don't need inventory, and you don't even need your own product. 📉📈It’s called Lead Arbitrage (or Pay Per Lead), and it is essentially the digital equivalent of day trading. You buy attention from platforms like Facebook for $10, generate a lead, and sell that lead to a business for $20. You profit the difference.In this video, I break down exactly how this high-leverage model works, how companies like "Lower My Bills" used it to exit for over $300 Million, and why I am personally moving my marketing agency from a standard retainer model to this performance-based approach.If you are a media buyer, agency owner, or entrepreneur looking for a scalable business model, you need to understand the mechanics of being the "Hunter" (Publisher) and finding the "Chef" (Buyer).In this video, you’ll learn: ✅ The exact math behind Lead Arbitrage (Cost per Lead vs. Sale Price). ✅ The "Hunter vs. Chef" analogy for understanding the market. ✅ Case Study: How "Lower My Bills" sold for $380M with ugly ads. ✅ Key definitions: Affiliates, Publishers, Networks, and Aggregators. ✅ Why big brands like NerdWallet and LendingTree are actually arbitrage companies.

    Dec 25 2025

    Is your sales team constantly complaining about lead quality? You are not alone—62% of marketers say their biggest struggle is finding high-quality leads.Most business owners make the critical mistake of optimizing for the lowest Cost Per Lead (CPL), but more leads doesn't always equal more sales. In this video, I break down the "Friction Framework" and specific Facebook Lead Form settings you can change today to filter out bad leads and skyrocket your conversion rates.I’m Rafael Hernandez, and after managing over $10 million in ad spend for brands like Neil Patel’s NP Digital, I’ve found that adding the right type of friction actually improves results.In this episode, we cover:

    ✅ The "One-Time Passcode" (OTP): A new Meta feature that forces leads to verify their phone number, eliminating fake numbers and spam.

    ✅ Conditional Logic: How to automatically disqualify leads who answer "0-$10k" on budget questions so you stop feeding Meta bad data.

    ✅ The BANT Framework: Exactly what to ask to determine Budget, Authority, Need, and Timeline.

    ✅ Higher Intent vs. More Volume: Why you should almost always select "Higher Intent" on your form settings.

    ✅ Optimizing for "Conversion Leads": How to connect your CRM to train the algorithm on who actually books appointments and buys, rather than just who fills out a form.

    ✅ Speed to Lead Secrets: Why calling within 5 minutes and "double dialing" (calling back-to-back) creates high urgency and contact rates.

We’ll look at the math required to hit $10 million in revenue with both models, the best niches to target for PPL, and how AI automation changes the game.
