This week’s chat featured guest co-host Jess from Fire Team and the topic was “​​Creating Creative that Drives Conversions.”

Questions

Q1: Are you currently running ads on social platforms? If so, which one(s)? And for what type of product or service are you advertising?

Q2: Do you find a particular type of ad creative drives the best results for the brands you work with? Does it vary by platform?

Q3: How do you currently test ad creative in your social campaigns? Does your testing method vary by platform?

Q4: What is your biggest challenge or frustration when it comes to testing ad creative in your social campaigns?

Q5: Are there any resources you’ve found that help with your social ad creative? Either inspiration and/or for testing?

Q6: Do you have any questions about ad creative for @HireFireTeam?

A6: I think when advertisers literally try to horrify you or confuse you in the first 3 seconds because they think that makes a good “hook”. The viewer isn’t hooked, they are confused, or sometimes revolted, which isn’t a good lead in to then try and sell a product.

A2: I think this question is a bit of a trap.

A style of ad creative works for a style of person. Some people are swayed by video, some by memes, others by copy.

A healthy ad account has a diversity of creative types, and a high-spending account requires it.#PPCChat

Yeah you do have to know your audience as well. Younger people gravitate towards anything more “native”. That could be content-oriented or memes.

Older people have been trained on infomercials so they love that camp or “as seen on TV” style of creative. #PPCChat

Humor cuts through privacy first web audience targeting struggles. Even in (and especially in B2B). Also ads that make you feel good about yourself (Infiniti’s infinitely you campaign is gold)#ppcchat https://t.co/1U5Ev0VFpE

UGC works across age groups. But people like to “see themselves” in an ad, minus a few years. So if you are talking to 65 year olds try a 55 year old in your UGC. #ppcchat

— Jess @ FireTeam 🔥 An agency on fire… (@HireFireTeam) March 28, 2023

A3: This is a hotly debated topic!

We run a testing campaign and test ONE creative PER adset. Usually for about a week minimum and $100/day.

It’s very expensive to get a good read on if an ad works, but a requirement.

One we have a winner, we let Meta choose the winners after…

A2. Big fan of what I call the customer review 50/50 ad. Each ad account and brand is different, even two cell phone cases brands would have different creative that works. Not a one size fits all.https://t.co/l8455jqYBZ#ppcchat

— Duane Brown 🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈 4x Vax’ed! (@duanebrown) March 28, 2023

Another hot button issue! We are a “quality over quantity” shop and rarely see a need for more than 10 pieces of creative, even when spending over $1M/mo.

One or two very good new creatives a week can get you very far! #PPCChat

— Jess @ FireTeam 🔥 An agency on fire… (@HireFireTeam) March 28, 2023

A5.

1,300+ DTC brands with links to their FB ad library, and organic IG & TikTok & Youtube accounts. Plus site URL. If we need creative ideas, first place we hit…

A5: This is tough because even the concept of “creative is important” is new enough to NOT have the educational base to support it.

That said, there are some leaders in this space, like @DenneyDara and @binghott.

It’s also important to expose your creatives to others. If you…

Its a great place for inspo but be careful. The criteria to be selected to its “top ads” is the loosest I’ve ever seen. #PPCChat

Hello incredibly dramatic & over the top Google Ads alert.

One low-performing keyword can HARM MY WHOLE ACCOUNT?

This is a ridiculous alert. What kind of language is that to describe having low CTR keywords in an account?

Still looking for examples of Google Ads Led Forms opening on a Google hosted page that appears to be on the destination host domain.

#ppcchat Does anyone us Lead Form Extensions & have seen the experience change recently? Looking for any documentation. Current experience hijacks the click with display url of domain/form instead of having it as a serp option INSTEAD of clicking to site.
