  1. Question

    Can the setting change the outcome?

    The studio ad is costing US$40 per purchase. Excutia writes the question before making a new image.

  2. Controlled split

    Two full ads. One changed image.

    The copy, offer, eligible audience and placement stay fixed. Separate groups receive A or B for a planned 60 days. Purchases per assigned person are the decision metric.

  3. Day 15 · early signal

    Engagement favors B.

    A has 1,200 likes, 120 comments, 2.2% engagement and 56 purchases. B has 1,650 likes, 150 comments, 3.0% engagement and 68 purchases.

    Excutia: B draws more interaction, but the purchase gap is too small to decide.

  4. Day 30 · keep watching

    The original improves too.

    A's CTR climbs from 1.8% to 1.9%; B reaches 3.6% engagement. Purchases are 132 for A and 165 for B.

    Excutia: delivery and purchase tracking look healthy. Continue the planned window.

  5. Day 45 · no early call

    B leads, but the test is still running.

    A has 216 purchases; B has 280. Both groups have reached 180,000 assigned people.

    Excutia: the purchase gap is widening, but the 60-day review window remains open.

  6. Day 60 · readout

    Use B as the next starting point.

    At equal US$11,520 spend and 240,000 assigned people per ad, B brings 384 purchases at US$30 each; A brings 288 at US$40 each. The purchase-rate difference passes a two-sided 95% check.

    Excutia: carry the in-context setting into the next brief, then test the message.

The in-context ad becomes the next starting point.

At equal spend, B delivers 33% more purchases at 25% lower cost per purchase. Keep the in-context image and test the message next.

The purchase-rate difference is statistically significant at the planned 95% level. Likes and comments were monitoring signals, not the decision metric.
