# Boost one-minute videos for personal branding

You have a short clip that people found useful. This guide helps you test it with more people who may need your help. Start with the real post and the proof that it worked.

**The path:** Proven clip → right people → small test → checked result.

**Use this when:** A real personal-brand post has earned useful organic response and the owner has a defined paid-test goal.

## Inputs
- The original post URL, recent organic metrics and the person’s actual Page or eligible professional account; role access to the connected ad account.
- A clear audience and goal from [Goals, Content, and Targeting](https://blitzmetrics.com/gct-business-strategy/), an approved creative and claims, and the full account/currency/budget/date scope for any paid test.
- Rights to the footage, people, music and testimonial; captions or an accurate transcript, a checked profile and a working destination when used.

## First-run prompt

> Review these clips and choose only those with real signal and clear rights. Prepare the exact account, original post, audience, budget, end date and success measure for a small personal-brand test. Carry out only the paid actions already authorized and report saved settings separately from actual delivery.

## Steps
1. Rank the person’s recent clips against their own baseline. Select up to three to five that answer a buyer’s real question, show useful work or contain a verified proof moment. Use fewer if fewer qualify.
2. Keep the person and company identities clear. Use the actual authorized identity that owns the post. A Public Figure category is not a universal requirement for every Meta ad, and a company Page does not become a personal Page by changing its label.
3. Check the opening, captions and visible proof with sound off. Retain the person’s actual words and context. A shared stage or photograph proves only that moment, not friendship, client status or endorsement.
4. Name the goal before choosing settings: relevant attention, profile visits or a defined business action. Choose the current eligible objective and the matching reported metric; do not count a view as a lead.
5. Use the supported existing-post option where available and verify the original post ID in preview. Confirm format, music and placement eligibility. If the original cannot be promoted, record that limitation before preparing a distinct derivative.
6. Build a small relevant audience within real service or market limits. Read whether the interface treats an input as a boundary or a suggestion. Do not assume a list or a famous person’s name guarantees delivery to those people.
7. Plan the method’s $1-per-day, seven-day test where the platform accepts it. Confirm minimums, budget type, actual spend limits, fees and combined tests before launch. If the account cannot fit the approved amount, leave that test pending; do not silently raise the budget.
8. For an authorized launch, re-read the saved identity, post, dates and budget. Check delivery and spend early, then review the planned full window with the same target. Brand-name searches or new followers can be supporting observations; they do not prove the ad caused a sale.

## Definition of done (QA checklist)

- [ ] The selected clip has linked organic evidence and usable media rights.
- [ ] Person/company identity and original post or disclosed derivative are correct.
- [ ] Goal, audience, result definition, budget controls and end date are recorded.
- [ ] Saved settings, delivery and business outcome are reported as separate states.
- [ ] The due review has an owner and a bounded keep/stop/next-test decision.

## Example(s)

**Fictional teaching example:** A bike shop owner posts a 55-second tip on fixing a loose seat. It gets 12 useful questions and shares, while similar recent clips usually get three. She chooses a seven-day awareness test with a nominal $7 plan in an eligible account. The preview uses her real post and readable captions. At review, the operator records $6.80 spend and the platform’s actual view count. Two shop inquiries are recorded separately; neither is called an ad sale without matching evidence. The next test is proposed within a new dated budget, not left on by default.

## Handoff and Content Factory context

Give the campaign owner the test log for [analyze cost per result and engagement](https://local-service-spotlight.github.io/task-library/?task=analyze-cost-per-result-and-engagement#task-analyze-cost-per-result-and-engagement). Send eligible proven clips to [execute switch boosts to new audiences](https://local-service-spotlight.github.io/task-library/?task=execute-switch-boosts-to-new-audiences#task-execute-switch-boosts-to-new-audiences) only when the next audience test is in scope.

This task is in Promote within the [Content Factory](https://blitzmetrics.com/content-factory/). Produce gathers real source material; Process makes useful assets; Post places and checks them; Promote distributes suitable work within its own scope. Use the proof and checked posts from earlier stages; a Promote task does not automatically redo all four stages. Use the actual next step above; catalog neighbors are not prerequisites.

## When this runs

One seven-day test per chosen clip. A series can add one qualified post per day within an agreed total budget. Monthly brand reviews or new tests require an actual recurring arrangement; this file creates none.

## First-run setup and continuity

Open the supplied task file and its linked source. Verify the project’s real inputs, account, access and output folder before work. This Markdown file is a guide; it does not install an app, connect an account, supply a subscription or create a schedule. Carry out work already authorized; do not ask for the same approval again. Keep any unsupplied destination or new action outside that scope clearly pending.

Save source IDs, versions, decisions, checked outputs and next owner in the project tracker. Before a retry, check the saved state and other workers’ changes. A model name does not guarantee memory or a running timer. Repeated work needs an actual configured trigger and durable state; one-off work can be started by the prompt above.

Keep agent media muted with volume zero before playback. If mute cannot be verified, use captions, metadata or still frames. State the limit: silent visual checks do not prove spoken-word accuracy or audio quality. Do not start sound through the user’s speakers unless explicitly asked.

## Write up the real run

For every actual attempt, [write its meta article](https://blitzmetrics.com/meta-article-prompt/) with this recipe and revision, trigger, steps performed, output evidence, measured result, gaps and next owner. Failed, blocked and partial attempts also get a written record. A draft can satisfy writing; publishing it follows the existing job scope.

Keep one stable execution ID across retries and edits. A separately scoped child task may have its own ID linked to its parent. Writing the parent’s meta record is part of that run, not an endless new chain. The [recipe and meta-article guide](https://localservicespotlight.com/meta-articles/) explains this distinction. Teaching examples are not real executions and must not enter the run count.


<!-- factory-layer:start -->

## Factory chain (do not treat this as isolated)

- **Phase:** Promote
- **Importance:** 5/5 `●●●●●` — frequency 5, revenue 5, gating 3 (runs every factory cycle or weekly; ads/revenue path)
- **Suggested previous station:** `boost-top-3-5-facebook-posts`
- **Suggested next station:** `set-1-day-budget-per-ad-set`
These stations are generated neighbors, not verified prerequisites or handoffs. Follow the task’s actual Inputs and Handoff sections.
- **Handoff:** Organic metrics CSV (or Ads Manager export), pixel ID, creative filenames, kill/scale log. Next week's ranking starts from this file.

## Model routing (same factory, any engine)

- **This task's lane:** `computer` — Logged-in UI (Meta Ads Manager, Descript, GSC, wp-admin when REST is blocked). Requires a supported browser tool and the right account access.
- **Single-engine path:** Use the capable AI app you already have. Check its required tools and access before starting. Pass the actual result and proof to the next task.
- **Optional multi-engine:** A tested local model may draft; a stronger model may review facts and voice. Use supported tools for approved actions. Pick models from observed quality and cost; a model name does not prove it can run this task.
- **Never** store the working state in one vendor's memory. Files in the Content Library are the bridge.

## Review and evidence still needed

The source contributor status is preserved. It is not certification of this draft or proof of account access, completed work or a live outcome. The worked example teaches the method and is explicitly fictional.
- Current Meta budget and audience help returned a login/block response; exact account controls must be checked at execution.
- No real clip, proof rights, spend authorization or account readiness is established by this draft.
