Whatโs scarier than CPMs rising this Q4? ๐ฑ Running the same creative over and over.
For one of our bra brand partners, we did the opposite โ casting the first male creator in their account history.
Not to shock, but to learn.
We tapped into our expert creator network and had a male plastic surgeon speak to his first-hand experience with patients post-surgery.
The outcome? 98% new customers reached. Proof that under Metaโs Andromeda update, creative diversity isnโt just smart โ itโs essential.
When you lead with curiosity, performance follows.
Meta's Andromeda update made creative diversity that much more essential for strong performance. Here's why and how you can take advantage ๐

๐ฌ Improved creator briefs โ capture a wide variety of creative concepts and angles up front
๐จ Visually differentiated creative refreshes โ deliver stronger learnings than indistinguishable tweaks and iterations
๐ค Replicating winning creative angles to additional diverse creators โ increase resonance with different audiences
๐ก Hot Take: This shake up doesnโt make us nervous, it creates an opportunity for brands to compete in a new way and shake up the top performers. The future of performance belongs to brands who test often, think creatively, and contextualize for their audiences.
๐ Iโm Caroline Levere, Co-Founder & CEO of Grapevine & UGC Whitelisting Queen. I run a paid social ad creative agency helping brands reduce CPAs through creator and publisher whitelisting. Need help scaling your creative mix? Letโs chat.
TL;DR We want to let you in on our paid social secrets. Today we released the top 10 performance UGC ad formats of 2025

Trust us, the top DTC brands spent $10M on our content in the last month alone
Q4 is around the corner and weโre deep in planning with our partners, leveraging our learnings from all year to help them scale effectively during crunch time.
Why trust us? My team works with leading consumer brands (think: Nobl Travel, Honeylove, and Arrae) and saw over $10 million in spend against our ads in the last 30 days.
We took a look at the top ten performance UGC ad formats of this year to date across our portfolio and know every brand needs a few of these in their account. So after our monthly team all hands, we decided it was time to share some of our secrets.
"We tested whitelisting - it didn't work for us."
That's what our top performing clients said... until they launched with us.
Now it's their #1 growth lever.
