‍✌️ Meta Just Doubled Your Purchaser Window

730 days. That's the new ceiling for purchase event audience retention, up from 180. Two years of pixel-tracked buyers now available as a targetable pool.

Meta also added audience labels to the creation flow, letting you manually categorize segments as high value, low value, at risk, or disengaged. That taxonomy matters for how Meta treats the audience in delivery.

Where this gets interesting for brands with new product lines: your 730-day purchaser list contains buyers who converted before your new SKU existed. They already cleared the trust barrier. They bought once, went dormant, and have likely never seen anything from your new range. That's a warm audience most brands aren't currently working because their retention window cut off before it could capture them.

Build the 730D purchaser segment. Get it into your existing customer settings. If you're launching anything new this quarter, consider including that list.

‍🍉 How Kylie Jenner’s Sprinter Storefront Feels Fast and Intuitive

Kylie Jenner’s Sprinter recently pivoted from canned cocktails to functional hydration mixes. Their latest drop, K20 by Sprinter, is a drinkable beauty mix packed with collagen, electrolytes, and hyaluronic acid.

They are scaling fast, already pulling in $130K per month on Shopify.

Their secret? A highly optimized, friction-free tech stack.

Here are three AI-powered tools helping drive their growth:

1. Instant AI Page Builder

In highly visual, impulse-driven categories like beverage, presentation is everything.

Sprinter uses Instant AI to create high-converting landing pages without waiting on developers.

Fast-moving brands need agility. Product drops, seasonal campaigns, and promo bundles require landing pages that go live in minutes, not weeks. You simply describe what you want, and the AI builds it.

2. Revize

Post-purchase friction is a silent killer for scaling brands.

Revize allows Sprinter customers to edit their orders (updating shipping addresses, swapping products, or correcting details) directly after checkout without opening a support ticket.

Customers get immediate control, and the support team stops wasting hours handling manual edit requests.

For a high-volume brand with tight fulfillment windows, this eliminates costly operational bottlenecks before they happen.

3. Microsoft Clarity

Conversion metrics tell you what is happening, but behavioral analytics tell you why.

Sprinter uses Microsoft Clarity’s heatmaps and session recordings to catch friction in real-time.

It tracks exactly where mobile users hesitate, which page sections get ignored, and where drop-offs happen during checkout.

Instead of guessing, Sprinter builds a continuous feedback loop where real behavioral data directly dictates UX improvements, instantly lifting conversion rates and long-term retention.

‍Get more phone calls from Meta Pro Team than your family? Relatable. 😅

Even though they’re filling up your inbox, it’s a good idea to actually pick up the phone and hear them out.

Pilothouse shares what Meta Support Pros are really good at helping with:

1️⃣ Another set of eyes on your ad account

When you look in the same ad account daily, it’s easy to get into a flow and miss some opportunities.

Meta Support Pros can provide extra advice on creative and structure to make sure your account is meeting best practices.

2️⃣ Valuable information on new / upcoming products on Meta

Meta is always rolling out new features and products for advertisers. By connecting with your Meta Pro, you can get information on upcoming releases and updates to stay ahead.

3️⃣ Access to funded test opportunities

This is a big one! Sometimes Meta offers special funded opportunities for testing new features or products.

Having a strong relationship with your Meta Support Pro may help you get access to funded test opportunities.

4️⃣ Troubleshooting and ad rejection support

Ad rejections can put a damper on performance. Thankfully, if you have a dedicated Meta Support Pro, they can help with quick solutions if you face rejections, along with the main Meta business support chat.

5️⃣ Help with creative ideas and formats

If you’re unsure about what ad format might work best, the Meta Support Team can provide recommendations and insights on how to diversify your account further to boost performance.

So don’t ignore those calls from the Meta Pro Team! They’re offering valuable opportunities and support that can directly impact your ad success.
