🧭 Macro Overview
Before partnering with AdAmigo.ai, Stilnovo Shoes had never run Meta ads before. Hiring an agency felt risky, expensive, and opaque.
Instead, they turned to AdAmigo.ai’s AI agents — a rational, data-driven alternative that offered the same level of performance expertise without the hefty agency price tag. The result? A hands-off experience that transformed Meta ads into a profit center — right from day one.
🧠 About the Business
Stilnovo Shoes is a design-led Italian footwear brand that blends minimalist fashion with artisanal craftsmanship. The team wanted to explore Meta ads to reach new audiences — but without adding operational complexity or overspending on agency fees.
🎯 Goals
Launch Meta ads from scratch, with no prior data
Get the expertise and ease of an agency — at lower cost
Turn Meta into a profitable, scalable channel

⚙️ Operational Shift
Before AdAmigo.ai: Stilnovo had never run Meta ads and was considering hiring an agency — but didn’t feel confident about who to trust, or how much value they'd get for the cost.
After Onboarding: Stilnovo used AdAmigo.ai to launch Meta ads from zero — and hit their profitability targets immediately. The brand now scales profitably with AI agents that require no training, oversight, or media buying background.
✅ Outcomes
+55% ROAS target surpassed in the first 10 days
3.1x ROI on AdAmigo.ai’s monthly fee
Launched Meta ads with zero prior data or setup
Saved ~7 hours of campaign building and optimization time
No need for an agency — AI agents handled it all
💬 Brand Perspective
“We didn’t know where to start with Meta ads. Agencies seemed expensive and hard to trust.
With AdAmigo, we felt in control — and got results immediately. The AI handles everything, and the return on investment was clear from week one. We’re incredibly happy we went this route.”
