Sharing a small method that I tested about a month ago, but never really scaled that hard due to time commitments.

We are leveraging competitors high adspend and piggybacking on their ads.
The concept is dead simple — **let your competitors pay for the audience, and you swoop in**


Was doing this manually, but now working on automation, so might start a follow along.

## The Core Idea
Some of these eCom stores are spending **$10K+ per day** on Facebook ads.
That means a massive, warm, buyer-intent audience is getting served their ads constantly.

1️⃣ You find facebook ads for a product that is being scaled hard.
2️⃣ Replicate their site and find the source. Offer @ like 20% discount.
3️⃣ Drop UGC review ai ad of the product and link the video + your site in comments (say that this is way cheaper on xyz.com site)
4️⃣ Buy fake likes, comments on your comment to push it to the top comment.

Why This Works:
- The audience is **already warm** — they were served the ad because they match the buyer profile
- You're offering a **cheaper price** with zero ad overhead
- The comment feels **organic**, not promotional
-You're riding **someone else's $10K/day+ budget** for free


Now whenever competitors ad is being shown to the facebook audience, you are getting free exposure.
Dont scam here and actually deliver the product obviously. Y
ou can offer it @ cheaper price because you are not paying for ads.


So some of these stores as spending 10k per day, and basically you are getting a fraction of that audience for free.


Any questions?

looks interesting but i dont fully get it . You just click on their ad posts and comment there with all ur info , buy likes and all that , do they not see it ?

They do see it at times yes.
The problem is the owner can ban your comment no ? :)
They can and happens at times, but you rotate accounts and do it again.
With automation you can just monitor and repost.
are you using stripe?
if yes, is it on your name ?
Yes. I have used both own names and non own.
For this you can use your own - you are not doing anything blackhat that goes against stripes rules.

Very interesting, wish you all the luck
 
Looks very interesting,
Still so many things are unclear, for example :

1. the Facebook accounts, are they old and warmed or new ?
2. How do you find these ads and how do you know that they are doing scaling (I mean spending big numbers) ?
3. How do you find the same exact product they sell ? So you will be mostly targeting dropshippers not actual brands that they make the product ?
4. To build the store, which platform(s) do you use and which payment gateways ?

Still may other questions, but didn't want to bother you a lot

1. I happen to have lots of aged accounts. But I dont think it matters that much in practice, as long as they look real and have some age.
2. Train your feed. I have several accounts for different niches.
3. Mostly its same sources etc everyone is using. With saas product or digital products it even easier to copy the whole funnel.
4. Shopify, or build your own. Cloning sites with ai is super fast these days

He did reply, but tbh it is much of a reply.

Thank you for all the replies.
Sorry for being rude, but these replies are much of useful information, u basically didn't answer my questions.
If you don't have time or don't know to explain smth in details, you can go ahead and share an example (not your store obviously) this way I can get relevant informations by doing my own research.

pretty busy and dont have time to spoon feed:)

Search for these terms on forums, feed the thread to ai or smth.
Its pretty basic knowledge, so learn how to learn.
Best of luck

"pretty busy and dont have time to spoon feed:)" I am fine with first part, but calling answering relevant questions with well elaborated and sincere answer is WILD.

I know the basics man, and I know how to learn, I learned a lot on this forum from people who share good information.
I am asking YOU, bcs you supposedly sharing a METHOD, so I am curious about ingredient of this method.

Anyway, I guess it would be useless to keep replying to this thread.

Ciaoooo !
 
Do you really go to the trouble of creating new products for more than one niche? I imagine it's a digital product, or is it a scam?
with claude code, cursor and templates takes about 20-30 minutes to spin up a new website.
 
Kinda genius for leveraging competitor ad spend by just swooping in with a cheaper offer in their own comments. It’s definitely a cheeky workaround, but honestly, riding someone else’s $10K+ daily budget for free exposure is some next-level resourcefulness if you can nail the execution. Anw, how many facebook accounts do you have?

I have a farm anyways, but in this case study I used about 5 accounts.
Sometimes the page will ban you from interacting with the page, so you need to swap
 
Interesting concept, tbh. I’ve seen similar tricks work a bit, but the ban risk is real. If you can prove real value behind the discount, maybe give it a test—but automation plus fake engagement still feels sketchy to me. Anyone actually pulling sustainable sales from this, or is it just a month-long thing?
you are not going against stripe TOS with this
