About The AI Ads Alchemists

The classroom holds seven courses and 246 lessons, with a Start Here page that sets out the order in which to use them.[1] The Meta Ads Masterclass runs across five modules, from MC1 Foundations and MC2 Creatives That Scale through MC3 Launch Strategy, MC4 Test, Learn & Scale and MC5 Advanced Media Buying Strategy, plus a module on Understanding Andromeda.[1][2] An AI creative course gathers workflows for claymation and Pixar-style ads, a Claude Code ad agent, video made with Arcads, image and video generation inside Airtable, Nano Banana used at scale, and direct uploads into an ad account.[1] Automation lessons cover bulk builds in AdTable, automating ad set budgets in Airtable, bulk uploads and Make.com builds, along with 9 custom GPTs for ad copy, hooks, competitor research and ad policy.[1][2] A live AI and ads Q&A runs every two weeks on Wednesdays at 12pm Pacific, with guest speakers, and sessions are recorded.[1][2]

Kruse left corporate work in 2023 to start a business combining advertising, automation and AI.[3] That business, Kruse Media Solutions LLC, runs the Mr. Paid Social site, which offers paid social tools, automation, courses and consulting.[3][4] Kruse also built AdTable.ai, an ads operating system built on Airtable, and posts about AI and advertising on YouTube.[1][5]

Membership is billed monthly through Skool and can be cancelled at any time from Skool settings.[1]
