A brand engine for StefanBrain-owned eCom. You drive the marketing in StefanBrain. I run sourcing, the store, ad accounts, flows and the daily watch through an agent system I built on Claude. I direct it and check every result. We talk in Slack.

Who does what

You + StefanBrain

Stefan

Product direction. Angles, copy, creative, ads and landing pages, all in StefanBrain. A yes or no on picks.

Me + my agents

Shaw, operator

I built the agent system and I run it. I set the work, check every result and make every call: suppliers, ad accounts, money, launch structure. I own the numbers.

My agentsResearch, verification, store builds, wiring, monitoring and support, at a volume one person can't type.

One operator, many agents. I decide. They execute. Nothing ships until I've checked it.

The run, brand by brand

Direction

Day 0

YouDrop a category, an angle or a product link in Slack. Or pick from my shortlist.

MeI turn it into a brief: price point, margin floor, ship-time ceiling. Then I cut the candidates to three.

My agentsSweep the Meta Ad Library for products scaling right now and tear down each funnel: offer, price, bundles, upsells.

GateEvery candidate has live ad spend behind it.

Sourcing

Day 1

MeI set the sourcing rules, read the sheet and make the go or no-go. I order a test unit to check packaging and the return address.

My agentsQuery CJ's API for stock per warehouse, landed cost and ship-time quotes per route. Line up a backup supplier.

YouApprove the pick. Five minutes.

GateUS stock covers 30 days of target volume. Delivery in 7 days or less. Margin above the floor.

Real check, Oct 27: unit $0.89 · shipping $3.02 · landed $3.91 · 3–7 days to NYC

Store

Days 2–3

YouStefanBrain writes the product page, offer stack and landing copy.

MeI spec the store from SB's output and review every page on my phone. Then I place a real test order end to end and refund it.

My agentsBuild the Shopify store: bundles and upsells, CJ order sync, pixel and Conversions API, legal pages.

GateThe test order passes: payment, fulfilment sync, emails, refund.

Brand 01 product page, as it leaves the build. Copy and creative slot in from StefanBrain.

Ad accounts

Day 3

MeI set up Business Manager, extra ad accounts as we need them, domain verification, pixel sharing and payment methods.

My agentsWatch every account through the Meta API for rejected ads, spend limits and quality flags. They alert me in Slack.

YouSB ads go in. We agree the launch structure once.

GateTwo ad accounts ready before the first dollar, so one ban never stops a brand.

Email + SMS

Days 3–4

YouStefanBrain writes the flows.

MeI map the flows, approve every send and keep the list clean.

My agentsBuild welcome, abandon, post-purchase, shipping updates, review ask and winback. Set up SPF, DKIM, DMARC and warm-up.

This week: 27,081 contacts moved off GoHighLevel · 38,969 tracked links rewritten · 0 spam complaints

Launch + watch

Day 5 on

MeI kill or scale every ad with a written reason and clear support escalations from my phone.

My agentsPost the daily digest in Slack. Answer where-is-my-order and handle refunds inside the rules I set.

YouNew creative from SB when the numbers ask for it.

I set the work, the agents do the volume, and I check what comes back. Cheaper models handle bulk work and Claude reviews it before it reaches me. I run all of it from my phone. For our own offers we built ad-creative tools for scripts, statics and video. Here StefanBrain owns creative. If you want more volume, they can cook alongside SB.
