QUESTION 1 OF 5AUM OS
START HERE

Who should run your Meta ads?

This picks the right service for you. You can come back and change it.

WHAT THIS MEANS

AUM OS is done for you. We plan, write, film, edit, check, launch and report. Your account manager, paid media strategist and media buyer run it all year. Your advisors take the booked calls.

Blackbox Studio is creative only. We make the videos and ads, and can build the landing pages. Your team runs the campaigns and reporting.

AUM OS

Which plan fits you?

Same team and system on every plan. Higher plans ship new ads and VSLs more often and add more time with us.

NEW VIDEOS PER YEAR
WHAT THESE WORDS MEAN

VSL: a 10 to 15 minute video your advisor records. It sits on a landing page and does the teaching before the call.

Ads: short videos on Facebook and Instagram that send people to the VSL. Every VSL comes with 30 ads.

AUM OS

How much do you want to spend on ads each month?

You pay Meta directly for ads. Your retainer covers your first $10,000 a month. Above that, a fee applies to the spend in each range.

BLACKBOX STUDIO

How many advisors will be on camera?

Every advisor gets their own videos and their own ads. More advisors recording means more videos, so the price goes up.

Advisors on camera
Each one records their own VSLs and gets 30 ads per VSL.

BLACKBOX STUDIO

Will your advisors read the same scripts?

If they all say the same words, we write the scripts once. Each advisor still records, and gets their own edited VSLs and ads.

EXAMPLES, 8 VSLS EACH, EVERYTHING DONE BY US

With the same words, the extra advisor skips the scripting cost. Recording, editing and QA are still per advisor, because each one has their own footage.

BLACKBOX STUDIO

How many VSLs should each advisor get?

A VSL is a 10 to 15 minute video. Each one comes with 30 short ads, assembled from the recorded segments. 8 is our standard set.

VSLs per advisor
1 VSL = one 10 to 15 minute video + 30 ads.

YOUR ADS
BLACKBOX STUDIO · SCRIPTS

Who writes the scripts?

Scripts are the words your advisor says on camera.

WHAT YOU GET PER VSL

One full script for a 10 to 15 minute VSL, plus the scripts for its 30 ads. Not just one video: the whole set. We build them from your ideas and from what is working across our clients right now.

Revisions included. We rewrite until you and your compliance team approve.

BLACKBOX STUDIO · RECORDING

Who coaches the recording?

Good video comes from good light, sound and delivery.

WHAT YOU GET

Our videography consultant joins remotely and coaches your advisor on camera, light, sound and delivery. One session covers up to 8 VSLs for one advisor. Each advisor needs their own session.

BLACKBOX STUDIO · EDITING

Who edits the videos and builds the ads?

This turns raw footage into a finished VSL and 30 ads.

WHAT YOU GET PER VSL

A finished 10 to 15 minute VSL with graphics, subtitles, music and disclosures. Plus 30 ads assembled from the recorded segments, sized and ready to upload to Meta.

Revisions included. We make your changes until the videos are right.

BLACKBOX STUDIO · QA

Who checks the videos and handles compliance changes?

Compliance often sends many rounds of edits. This is the work that gets videos approved and live.

WHAT YOU GET PER VSL

We check the VSL and all 30 ads for mistakes, audio problems and compliance flags. When your compliance team sends changes, we make them, check again and send them back. We repeat until they approve.

Your compliance team still gives the final sign off.

BLACKBOX STUDIO · TECH

Who builds the landing pages and tech?

This is the page each VSL lives on, and what makes a lead land in your calendar and CRM.

WHAT YOU GET

Not just connecting. We build a landing page for each VSL in our own format, the same layout we use for our AUM OS clients. Then we connect your booking calendar, CRM and Meta tracking, so every lead lands in your system and every booking is tracked.

Priced per build out, not per VSL. One build out covers one advisor, up to 8 VSLs.
