Creative burnout

When an ad set stops paying back

What it is

When an ad set stops paying back

The point when the audience has seen the video enough and stops reacting. Visible as a steady CTR decline while reach stays flat.

Example

What it looks like in numbers

A creative held a CTR of 1.6% for two weeks; on day 15 it dropped to 0.9%. Reach and audience did not change, seasonality was not a factor. The video has been shown to everyone it could reach, and the next impression goes to someone who has already seen it.

In practice

Where this shows up

Pages where Creative burnout is not explained but used — in a channel’s mechanics, in a launch breakdown or in a report.
