How to add new ads to your live campaigns in seconds

Supermetrics for Claude lets you add new ads to a live campaign straight from the chat, across Google Ads, Meta, Microsoft Advertising, and TikTok. Tell Claude which campaign and ad group to use, it drafts the variations, and you review and enable them within the chat interface. Every new ad is created paused, so nothing goes live until you switch it on.

Your campaigns are live and spending. The creative was working well three weeks ago, but the click-through rate has started to drop and you know it's time to test out a fresh new angle.

However, adding a new ad variation is more hassle than it should be. You log into the ad platform, find the right campaign and the right ad group, rebuild the ad format, paste in the copy, add the image, and check it all looks right.

It’s not a particularly complex task, but it’s a surprisingly arduous one. Especially when you’ve got far more important things to be doing with your time.

I've watched this happen on our own team. Before we built this, our marketers at Supermetrics spent far longer than they should have on exactly this job: rebuilding the same ad across three or four platforms just to get a handful of fresh variations live. Fixing that was a big part of why we built the integration.

With Supermetrics for Claude, you can add new ads straight into a live campaign from the chat, in seconds, without ever opening the ad manager. This playbook teaches you how.

Key takeaways

How do you get started with Supermetrics for Claude?

Getting set up takes a few minutes. Start a free trial and connect your data sources if you're new, or add the connector if you're already a customer.

Before running this workflow, you'll need a Supermetrics for Claude connection and access to the ad accounts where your existing campaigns live (Google Ads, Meta, Microsoft Advertising, TikTok, etc.).

New to Supermetrics?

The quickest way is to start a free Supermetrics trial, then connect your marketing data sources. Our support documentation walks through this step by step.

Once you've connected your data sources, head to Claude, click Customize, select Connectors, search for Supermetrics, and authenticate your account.

Already a customer?

If you're already a Supermetrics customer, you've got two options. Either add the Supermetrics connector in Claude (Customize → Connectors → search Supermetrics → authenticate), or add Claude as a destination from inside your Supermetrics Hub.

Your existing data connections carry over automatically — Claude can immediately query everything you've already set up.

How do you add new ads to your live campaigns in Claude?

To add new ads to your live campaigns in Claude, follow these three simple steps:

1. Tell Claude which campaign you're adding to
2. Generate the new ads
3. Review them and set them live

Here's how.

Note: The prompts below are starting points. Refine them as needed and continue iterating to see what delivers the best results.

Step 1: Tell Claude which campaign you're adding to

Start by telling Claude which live campaign and ad group (or ad set, if you're on Meta) you want to add to.

Tips:

• Analyze your current ads so you can copy what’s already working.
• Look at the current ads before you add new ones, so you don't accidentally launch a "new" angle you're already running.
• Be specific about which ad group you're adding to. A single campaign often has several, and new ads belong in the right one.

Step 2: Generate the new ads

Brief Claude on the variations you want, and have it create them inside that ad group in a paused state.

Tips:

• To create copy grounded in what's already worked, check out our guide on writing ad copy in Claude. Ask for a few variations so you've got options to test, not just one.
• Tell Claude what to avoid, such as claims you can't make, words that aren't in your brand vocabulary.
• Need images too? Ask Claude to generate them, or tell it you're supplying your own.

Step 3: Review them and set them live

Preview the new ads alongside the ones already running, make any final tweaks, then enable them when you're happy.

Tips:

• Compare the new ads to your existing ones, making sure they’re relevant to the same audience and that you’re not repeating angles you’ve already used.
• Every new ad is created in a paused state, so remember you have to manually enable them (this takes just a few clicks).
• Ask Claude if it spots any problems before you go live. It might catch a mismatch you've missed.

What are the benefits of adding ads to live campaigns through Claude?

Adding ads through Supermetrics for Claude saves you time, keeps your live campaigns fresh, and lets you act on new ideas the moment you have them.

What used to take half a morning now takes one conversation. No logging into each platform, no rebuilding the same ad format twice, no copy-pasting between tabs.

However, time-savings are just one benefit.

Performance usually dips the longer an ad runs. Your audience has already seen it too many times, and the response falls off. The usual fix is fresh creative, but building new variations and getting them live takes long enough that the weaker ads keep running in the meantime. When a fresh variation takes seconds, that changes. You can refresh your live campaigns continuously, replacing the ones that are slipping before they hurt your overall performance.

It also means you can act on a new idea straight away. Spot a competitor's gap or a seasonal hook, and the ad is in market that afternoon, not sitting in a backlog until you next find a free hour.
