🎨 Thumb-stopping AD creative

In this section I will be highlighting a few stand out ads I came across during the week.

AD 1: MOJO

β€œMojo is a sexual wellbeing app that helps men overcome psychological erection issues. Young, healthy men don’t need pills, pumps, or supplements rammed down their throats. Building on over 60 years of sex therapy, our app gives guys the psychological solution they really need.

Finally, they can understand what’s going on inside them and take action. Using clinically proven techniques, our members can take control of what happens in their minds and bodies during sex. This helps them get an erection, keep an erection, and live their intimate lives to the fullest.”

What sets this creative apart?

Hook:

"I can’t believe I feel this good WITHOUT pills" - speaks for itself.

Second scene:

Transition to a man, tossing restlessly, scrolling his phone in search of something, his face etched with stress.

The caption:

"Struggling to maintain erections has become a common issue."

The scene precisely encapsulates the universal anxiety of seeking a solution to our own personal worries.

We're all too familiar with those sleepless nights, frantic Google searches, and throbbing heartbeats.

This scene immerses you in the moment, commanding your focus.

.

POV filming:

A technique growing in popularity, and for a good reason.

  • Filming from the customer's perspective

  • Internet surfing

  • Googling the issue

  • Discovering "Mojo"

  • Browsing through testimonials (social proof)

  • Demonstrating the outcome (In this case, underwear hitting the bedroom floor)

  • Offer & CTA (Try for free)

This approach effectively anticipates and addresses potential doubts a viewer might harbor, walking them through the exact journey they'll undertake, the thoughts they'll encounter, followed by an irresistible offer.

It's clear that Mojo has an in-depth understanding of their customer.

This ad is quite compelling, it's hard not to be impressed πŸ˜‰ 

AD 2: Shinesty

β€œWe created Shinesty for one reason and one reason only: To force the world to not take itself too seriously.”

What renders this creative remarkable?

Bold visual:

Shinesty's branding is harmonious across all platforms. It's spirited, nonchalant, and oozes self-assuredness. They've clearly defined their identity and are unapologetic in flaunting it.

While 99.9% of brands may not dare to use such an image, for Shinesty, it's an absolute fit.

This exemplifies the essence of cutting through the clutter to reach those who will resonate and engage wholeheartedly with this cheeky style of creativity.
