### How to read your Google Ads attribution report — and why it's probably lying to you (April 2026)
URL: https://ambire.com.au/blog/google-ads-attribution-explained/
Author: Andrea Atzori
Summary: The Google Ads attribution report, GA4, and a CRM will report three different conversion counts for the same campaign — and each is correct, because each measures a different thing. The article explains what the attribution report can and cannot see (only Google-observed touchpoints), why data-driven attribution, attribution windows, and cross-channel blind spots make platform-reported numbers a partial truth, and why GA4 and CRM figures diverge. The takeaway: read attribution as a directional signal for optimising within a channel, not as proof a channel is working — and judge overall performance at the business level using Media Efficiency Ratio. Builds on the ROAS and MER/POAS articles.

### Should you add Meta Ads to your Google Ads? Run these four checks first. (April 2026)
URL: https://ambire.com.au/blog/google-ads-meta-ads-when-to-add-second-channel/
Author: Andrea Atzori
Summary: Before splitting budget across Google and Meta, there are four checks worth running on an existing Google Ads account: search impression share for core terms, full-funnel coverage (not just bottom-of-funnel search), whether the return is flattening due to budget or account structure, and lifetime value optimisation. The article explains what each check actually tells you, covers the demand capture vs demand creation distinction that makes Meta a different kind of channel rather than simply a second one, sets out the budget threshold where running both in parallel becomes viable ($15k–$20k/month combined), and includes a short-version summary for readers who want the diagnostic without the full context. Includes a case study: a boutique strata management firm that passed all four checks and added Meta as a structured test.

### How to actually implement MER and POAS: a practical guide for eCommerce brands (March 2026)
URL: https://ambire.com.au/blog/media-efficiency-ratio-poas-ecommerce/
Author: Andrea Atzori
Summary: The practical follow-up to the ROAS article. Covers how to calculate and track Media Efficiency Ratio (MER = Total Revenue ÷ Total Media Spend) and Profit on Ad Spend (POAS = Contribution Margin ÷ Ad Spend) without a data science team. Includes the historical grounding of POAS in Cost of Sale (COS) from two decades of client-side retail experience, a simple weekly dashboard template (five columns in a Google Sheet), three budget decision scenarios (defending brand investment, evaluating a new channel, diagnosing a plateau), and three common objections answered directly. Closes with the cultural shift required to move from optimising campaigns to optimising the business.

### Your ROAS is lying to you — and that's the problem (March 2026)
URL: https://ambire.com.au/blog/roas-limitations-media-efficiency-ratio/
Author: Andrea Atzori
Summary: ROAS is a genuinely useful metric in the early stages of paid media — it creates accountability, identifies efficient channels, and builds confidence in media investment. But at a certain point in a brand's growth journey it becomes a ceiling rather than a floor, optimising for capturing existing demand rather than creating new demand. The article explains why ROAS runs out of road once warm audiences are exhausted, how attribution window distortion and post-iOS 14 signal loss compound the problem, what gets defunded (brand campaigns, upper-funnel activity, new channels), and introduces Media Efficiency Ratio (MER) and Profit on Ad Spend (POAS) as the practical alternatives. Closes with a step-by-step MER calculation any eCommerce brand can run today.

### Creative Velocity is the New Targeting — Meta's Andromeda Algorithm & the 2026 Playbook (March 2026)
URL: https://ambire.com.au/blog/creative-velocity-meta-andromeda/
Author: Andrea Atzori
Summary: In 2026, Meta's Andromeda algorithm has fundamentally shifted how ads are matched to audiences. Rather than relying on interest-based targeting, Andromeda uses ad creative itself as a targeting signal — analysing visual and copy patterns at the pixel level to find the right audiences. This means Creative Velocity (the systematic production and rapid testing of ad creative) has become the primary growth lever for Meta advertisers. The article covers what Andromeda is, why creative signals now drive distribution, the 4-phase Creative Velocity system, winning account characteristics, and practical implementation steps for 2026.

### Demand Gen vs Meta Ads — Which Should You Run? (March 2026)
URL: https://ambire.com.au/blog/demand-gen-vs-meta-ads/
Author: Andrea Atzori
Summary: A strategic breakdown of Google's Demand Gen campaigns versus Meta Ads for Australian businesses. Covers the key differences in audience targeting, creative formats, attribution, and performance benchmarks. Includes a practical decision framework for choosing between platforms (or running both), with real-world context on how each fits into the full-funnel media mix.
