The target, proposed.
Same rules as the Ledisa plan, sized to Cleantra: YouTube only, one calendar month, held at the NC ROAS bar and read in our own data.
≈ $6.5K/day for 31 days on Cleantra YouTube. That is +35% on Cleantra's $571K of monthly paid spend, a big step, but under the ~$700K a month AppLovin video alone ran at over the last 90 days (NC ROAS 0.91). January is the first full month after the test gates and the December ramp, and it keeps BFCM week out of the test read.
The winners exist. The channel is missing.
Picked from Triple Whale and the company's Creative Report, not a guess.
AppLovin video on Cleantra Lymphatic in 90 days, at NC ROAS 0.91 (Triple Whale, TA 7d). 14 videos carried $1.52M of it at ≥ 0.9.
AppLovin in the last 30 days, at 0.78: under half its 90-day monthly pace. The same winners need new inventory. YouTube is the closest thing to AppLovin that Google sells.
$200K on top of $571K of monthly paid spend (Triple Whale, last 30 days). AppLovin video alone ran at ~$700K a month over the last 90 days, so the store has absorbed cold video at this size before.
Cleantra has tried Demand Gen. It fell short.
$14K at 0.47 through August, and the native run of the last 30 days is at 0.06. The setup failed in three known ways, and each one has a fix.

Bid on purchases
The Sep–Oct Demand Gen run optimized to "advertorial click + purchase". Google found people who click: 239 clicks to the offer, 1 purchase.
Proven creative
The summer run used Meta videos. Meta is Cleantra's weakest cold channel: 0.07 on $18K in the last 30 days. AppLovin is the strongest.
The right door
Demand Gen traffic went to the Search top-5 advertorial: $2.9K, 4 new customers. AppLovin sends 70% of its Cleantra visits through a short quiz on the brand domain.
Their idea, our structure.
Since Oct 23, Dominuss has run Ledisa video with each video as four ads, one per page. We take the idea of testing the door. We keep the structure we set for Ledisa, and the split follows Gian's Oct 21 rule for lander tests.
Google decides how much each door gets
With one ad per page, the split is Google's choice, not an even test: the top door got 1.6× the bottom one in week one. Video only, Oct 20–26: $4.0K, 4 new customers, NC ROAS ~0.05. Too early to call any door.
Google Ads 7566607070 + 5541627821, DOM video campaigns · NC = Triple Whale TA 7d by ad_id · 15 of their 61 video ads disapproved, 16 more "approved (limited)"
- Test the door, not only the offer page. Four pages per video, from day one.
- Graduation. A video that holds NC ≥ 0.9 for 7 days moves into its own campaign.
- Purchase objective, no tCPA at start. Same as ours.
- One ad per door. Replaced by an even split inside one Voluum campaign, read on revenue per visitor. One ad per video also keeps Triple Whale's per-video read.
- Excluding men and 18–34. On Cleantra, men are 34% of non-brand Search purchases at the same ROAS (0.94 vs 0.94).
- Shorts and in-stream in one campaign. We keep them apart, so one format can't starve the other.
- Kept from the Ledisa plan: three campaigns per product, YouTube only, purchase bidding, geo holdout, kill rules, gates, native 16:9, Search Brand ready before launch.
Four doors, one split.
Each video runs as one ad. Its link goes to a new Voluum campaign that sends 25% of visitors to each door. All four doors sit on trycleantra.com, so the ad keeps one domain and no destination mismatch. Google bids on purchases from all four.

How we read it
The advertorial door
Dominuss's fourth door. On Cleantra it waits, for three reasons:
- → It lives on a third-party domain, so it can't share the split without a destination mismatch. It would need its own ad, which brings back Google picking the door.
- → Cleantra's Demand Gen to the top-5 advertorial: $2.9K, 4 new customers, 0.06 in the last 30 days.
- → A top-5 comparison after a Cleantra-branded video sends a sold viewer back to shopping.
It comes in on Dec 1 as a single-product article, only if door D (quiz) beats the direct doors. That would show that content before the offer works on video.
One product: three campaigns, never mixed.
The Ledisa template. Prospecting is split from remarketing, and in-stream from Shorts, so each format gets its own budget and learning. Account: Cleantra - DGEN (970-617-2184). Search and PMax are not touched.
All $2.10M of Cleantra's AppLovin video is this product. Oregano, ParaVanish, Astaxanthin and Soursop have no video history and stay on Search and PMax. US only. One video per ad, so Triple Whale reads NC ROAS per video.

How it reaches $6.5K/day: more campaigns, not bigger steps
A video that holds ≥ 0.9 for 7 days graduates into its own campaign, on the winning door, at ~$700–900/day. January runs on about eight campaigns plus RMK, and that needs a steady flow of new edits (see below). Each budget moves +20% per step at most, and the bar never moves.
We start from what already sells.
Six of the 14 AppLovin winners (Creative Report, Jul 28 – Oct 26, Triple Whale 7-day pixel). We read each transcript against Google's rules. Every card shows what we keep and what has to change before Google.
We edit them ourselves, with AI
We don't send edit requests to the creative team: the fixes and the native 16:9 versions are made on our side, scripted, through the company's Higgsfield workspace (CLI and MCP, which bill the plan's credits). Cuts run free on our Mac. Already done on Oct 27: cut-only fixes of #488, #434, #1909 and #4590, each verified by re-transcribing (the burned-in captions are cut along with the audio). #1909 and #4590 still need a new hook.
Batch 1 (six videos, 9:16 fixed + 16:9) is estimated at ~3,500–6,000 credits (≈ $280–470); reframe has no published price yet, so we measure it first. Rules: no voice or lip-sync changes on a real actor without a release, our own credit cap per video (the CLI has none), files stay off GitHub.
The 14 winners: AppLovin originals
Cleantra Lymphatic videos with ≥ $30K on AppLovin and NC ROAS ≥ 0.9, Jul 28 – Oct 26 (Triple Whale 7-day pixel, Creative Report). Original 9:16 files hosted by AppLovin. The status column is the Google read.
| Concept | Ad ID | Format | Spend | NC ROAS | File |
|---|
Know by Dec 1. Run it in January.
Each phase has a gate. Money only scales on Triple Whale and Voluum numbers, never on Google's conversion column.
The ramp, day by day.
Spend follows the gates. The NC revenue line is the floor case (0.9); at 1.0 it sits on the spend line.
Max exposure before the scale decision: the ~$28K test. The ramp is steep (×6.5 in 20 days, the same multiple as Ledisa's plan), so it only starts if Dec 1 says ≥ 0.85. It sits above the Q4 plan, which has $4.5K for Cleantra Demand Gen in November, so it needs an OK.
YouTube creates the search. Brand must catch it.
Cleantra's brand Search campaigns show on about half of brand searches. The Lymphatic brand campaign, the product the videos sell, shows on one in five. We fix that before launch.
So the lever is keyword bids, not budget. Seven brand Search campaigns, last 30 days: 14.1K impressions, $4.4K.
Viewers hear the name. They don't read it.
Our speech-to-text heard the winners' voiceovers as "Clentra", "Klentra", "Clientra" and "Clienture". People already search the misspellings: 414 impressions in 30 days, 3.7% of brand search terms. Video will multiply them.

Three reads. Our data only.
The YouTube tab in Tepui, built for Ledisa, gets a Cleantra view and a door table. The halo and incrementality reads come from a geo holdout and the store's total new customers.

Door table

Is it new, or AppLovin's?
If YouTube only takes credit from AppLovin or Meta, the store's total new customers don't move. We read them in YouTube states against the 20% holdout states.
