🧭 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

📈 Performance Highlights

Since this was a brand-new Meta ads account, traditional “before and after” analysis didn’t apply. Instead, we looked at initial profitability benchmarks:

⚙️ 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.”

This Success Story is a little different since we have no performance history on the ad account so we could not conduct our typical "before vs. after" analysis. However, we thought this case study could be just as valuable since it…

  • Shows how AI agents can launch Meta ads from scratch — no past spend required

  • Demonstrates immediate profitability and operational ROI

  • Proves Meta can be a profit center, not just a test

  • Highlights AI agents as a cost-effective, rational alternative to traditional agencies
