Facebook $1/Day Challenge Results — Testing Kyle’s Formula
This week’s assignment was simple on paper and sneaky-powerful in practice: run three $1/day boosted posts to test engagement, link clicks, and conversation starts—then let the numbers tell me what to write and promote next. I kept it light, respectful, and useful (no BS), and let the creatives do the talking.
Full breakdown with extra screenshots is here: My Week 5 Facebook Ad Challenge Results.
Content & Experiments
Content
- Published: Affiliate Marketing & Focus — Staying Consistent
- Set up: Week 5 test posts on the FB Page (copy variants + visuals)
Experiments
- Ad 1 — Engagement: text post, no link (test: question vs. statement lead)
- Ad 2 — Link Click: WA post share (link placed in first comment)
- Ad 3 — Conversations: “Message me” style prompt to start chats
Engagement Test — Hook vs. Hook
What the image below shows: Facebook post-level results for an engagement-only boost. You’ll see reactions, comments, and reach distribution. Purpose: validate which opening line stops the scroll better—question vs. statement.
Here’s What I Learned
- Question-led openings earn more quick reactions and comments.
- Short, clean text posts can outperform images when the promise is crystal clear.
- Replying fast to early comments compounds reach (free distribution).
Link Click Test — WA Post (Link in First Comment)
What the image below shows: Results for a link-click objective using my WA post as the destination. Purpose: learn whether a native-looking post (link in the first comment) improves CTR without hurting reach.
Here’s What I Learned
- Value in the first three lines lifts click-through.
- Comment-first links keep the post looking native and reduce friction.
- Country targeting lined up with GA traffic—nice external validation.
Conversation Test — “Message Me” Prompt
What the image below shows: Messaging-focused boost with metrics for replies and reach. Purpose: invite direct questions (niche selection, next steps) to gauge intent and collect language for future copy.
Here’s What I Learned
- Specific prompts (“Stuck choosing your niche?”) beat generic “DM me” requests.
- Replying within 24 hours keeps quality up and costs reasonable.
What Google Analytics Said
To double-check what I saw inside Facebook, I verified trends in GA. Signals lined up: the majority of new users came from the countries I targeted; organic search and social both moved in the right direction.
What the images below show: engagement/events, user activity over time, and new users by channel. Purpose: confirm ad-led traffic without relying only on FB’s reporting.
Takeaways
- $1/day works—as a learning engine, not a sales engine.
- Creative + hook quality > budget size at this stage.
- Country targeting matched the ad destinations I featured on FB—clean validation loop.

What I’d Repeat Next Week
- Write the hook first. If it doesn’t make me want to click, it won’t make them click.
- Place the link in the first comment for boosted posts; keep the post body clean and personable.
- Reply to comments fast—those early signals are free fuel.
- Pair experiments with focus habits: here’s how I keep shipping when motivation dips.
Challenges & Wins
Hardest
Not letting tools slow the ship date. If a prompt or format stalls, I swap the creative and keep moving.
Best Win
Seeing the targeted countries show up in GA and the FB dashboard—clean validation without heavy spend.

Week 6 Preview — PPC Search Ads for Reviews & Comparisons
Live on Oct 27, 6:00pm: “PPC – Search Ads for Reviews and Comparisons” (Bootcamp Lesson 6 of 15). The plan is to build lean search campaigns around review/comparison intent, write intent-matched copy, add negatives, verify conversion tracking, and set budget guardrails.
My Hypotheses
- Intent-matched headlines (“{Tool} Review — Pros, Cons, Verdict”) will outperform generic copy.
- Tight ad groups + proper negatives will keep CPC sensible even on small budgets.
- Clear conversion tracking will make “keep/kill” decisions obvious within the first $20–$30.
Why “Vegas” Motivates Me
Wealthy Affiliate runs an annual Super Affiliate Conference in Las Vegas for affiliates who hit the target for premium upgrades in a calendar year. It’s an all-expenses-paid trip with Kyle, Carson, and a crew of builders who show up every week and ship. For me, it’s a north star: build useful things, help people, and let the numbers compound. Real talk: I’ve got work to do. But the path is simple—keep shipping, keep helping.

Whether you’re just starting or getting back on track, you can build toward Vegas by stacking small wins: consistent content, clean systems, and $1 experiments that teach you what to do next.
