Paid Media Grok Bot Setup: Monitor Spend Without Auto-Changing Budgets

Build a paid media Grok bot that compares CAC and budget, recommends reallocations with numbers, and drafts Slack — never changes campaigns alone.

Paid media bots should analyze and draft, not push budget buttons. One bad unsupervised change wastes a week of spend.

Connect

Ads platforms (or exported Sheets), analytics, budget sheet, Slack channel for drafts.

First prompt

Pull current spend and performance by campaign for the last 7 days. Compare to monthly budget and target CAC. Recommend reallocations with supporting numbers. Draft a Slack update for growth. Do not change budgets or send the message.

Make it durable

  1. Put CAC / ROAS thresholds in the bot description.
  2. Require every recommendation to cite a number from source data.
  3. Review digests for two weeks before scheduling.
  4. Keep campaign mutations behind approval forever.
