from the show-hn dept.

Hi I am Orlando founder of blanco (https://www.blanco-media.ai/). Were automate social media ad management for small businesses. We have taken the advertising agency model of managing ads and put it into a software product. We provide far greater performance as we can analyse data 24/7 have 98% lower costs than agencies (we start at just $49/month compared to agencies at $2.5-$12k/month) and you can get started in just 10 minutes with our streamlined onboarding.

We have made and end to end solution from creating the ads to managing the ads. Ad copy is done by GPT-3 so you can just type in your first ideal version and then we will generate multiple others. We allow you to create graphic ads on our site using our ad generator, creating high quality, converting ads for your business.

For managing ads dynamically A/B test all of your title, image and description combinations to see what preforms best with your target audience and then optimise the budget to the ads that preform well. We also look at metrics like cost-per-action to optimise ads which convert your desired goal (e.g. product sales) for the lowest price possible.

So far we have over 100 small businesses effectively managing their ad campaigns with us. Providing greater performance for a fraction of the price. I saw that agencies were expensive and ineffective and so I created blanco.

If you need to run ads for your website or business then we would love to hear feedback from you. The first month is free only for the next 5 days.

Ok, I'll start.

Username had to be less than 12 characters, weird. Password had to be less than 12 characters, ultra weird. Just got an email from [email protected], shady. None of the Docs, Blog, Careers links work, not good.

I would love to try your product but I can't ignore all of these issues and get myself to pay 49$ for something that with the current information I have seems it will be unpolished, rough and a waste of my time and money.

Looks/polish matters for conversion unfortunately.

Hi there - Thanks for the reply. I am acting on your feedback and I am changing the username and password to have no limit and getting rid of the email on sign up.

Will get the docs blog and other pages set up as you said by tomorrow. If you are still interested I would love to give you a free access to try it out after I have fixed these issues.

Thanks so much for your feedback, Orlando

* correction/clarification to post. We have under 100 businesses. And we have applied to YC but are not in YC. Sorry for the confusion.

In terms of updates we have a better way to to connect your FB account to ours using your business manager which is going to be rolled out next week as well as general web app ui updates and free trial for all plans to allow anyone to try our product.
