One post, on an account I started ten days earlier, with no ad spend behind it. That is my own account — @meggzwor1d — not a client's, and I say so up front. It came down to the first three seconds, which is the same thing that decides whether a paid ad works or quietly burns your budget.

This is what you get.

Both cut for Dark Shadow Investigations — a licensed PI firm in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Same process you'd get: a concept, a script, a finished spot with the branding on it.

Following Him0:28

A wife hires an investigator to follow her husband. The twist lands in the last four seconds.

The Stakeout0:30

The call, the car, the restaurant, the timestamp. What surveillance actually looks like.

Whose client is that? Mine. Dark Shadow is my own firm — I say so because it is the first thing worth asking about any sample, and because these were made the same way yours would be. Nothing here is a mock-up or a template with a logo dropped in.

@meggzwor1d — see the post and the numbers yourself

This is the post.

Not a case study you have to take my word for — the actual reel, with the insights screen still attached to it. 11.9 million views on the first post from an account I had made ten days earlier, with nothing spent on distribution.

What did the work was the first three seconds. That is the entire job of an ad too, which is why the same approach is what I sell here.

A batch is three concepts, four hooks each.

Not twelve unrelated videos. Distinct angles, each cut several ways, so you can read the test afterwards and know which angle won and which hook carried it.

CONCEPTS

Different arguments

Problem-agitate, social proof, offer-led. Genuinely different cases for the same product — not one video with the text swapped.

HOOKS

The first three seconds

Rewritten and re-cut several ways per concept. Hook moves cost-per-result more than anything else in the edit, so it gets tested hardest.

RATIOS

Every placement

9:16, 4:5 and 1:1, reframed for each — not centre-cropped and hoping the subject survives.

What actually arrives.

These are the layouts, not client work — your brand, your offer and your footage go in the marked slots. I'd rather show you the shape of the deliverable than a case study you can't verify.

Prefer the free one first? Email Mmeggiolaro@apexaipipeline.com or DM @meggzwor1d the word “ADS”.
Monthly retainers from $1,500. No setup fee, no minimum term.

Straight answers.

What do you need from me to start?

The offer, who it's for, and any footage or product shots you already have. If you have none, I work from stock and motion — say so and I'll tell you honestly whether that suits your product.

Is this AI?

Partly, and that's why it's 72 hours rather than three weeks. The concepting and the edit are mine. If you have a no-AI clause, tell me and I'll shoot around it. I'd rather say this here than have you find out later.

Do you work white-label for agencies?

Yes, and most of this is built for exactly that. Your branding, your delivery, your client never hears my name. Send your NDA and I'll sign it.

What happens after the first batch?

Nothing automatic. If it worked, monthly retainers run from $1,500 for 6 assets to $3,000 for 15. Month to month, cancel with 14 days' notice.

Who am I actually dealing with?

Michael Meggiolaro, in New Jersey. One person, which is why the turnaround is fast and why I cap how many accounts I take at once.
