๐จ Thumb-stopping AD creative
In this section I will be highlighting a few stand out ads I came across during the week.
AD 1: Prose
โAt Prose, we know one size fits none. So we re-thought the entire model of mass-beauty to create haircare thatโs one-in-a-million. Itโs a radically custom approach: we create products that fit you alone, combining lab innovation, natural ingredients, and proven performance to create truly personal care. We are also a Certified B Corporation, a Public Benefit Corporation and Carbon Neutral, proving that good business is always sustainable.โ

What Sets This Ad Apart?
The Engaging Hooks:
"3 Signs You Need to Switch Your Shampoo"
This hook is crafted with such natural flair, you could easily mistake it for organic content created by an influencer โ it doesn't scream 'advertisement'.
The first section of the ad is a mini-education on the three telltale signs that your shampoo is wreaking havoc on your hair, offering immediate value to the viewer.
The second hook smoothly re-engages your attention, guiding it towards Prose โ the solution to the hair damage issues identified earlier.
"Break up with your old shampoo. Start new with Prose"
Intriguing Visuals:
UGC (User-Generated Content) usually features creators speaking to the camera from a fixed distance.
In contrast, this ad smartly utilizes close-up shots and various camera angles to create riveting footage. It not only captures your attention but also focuses it on the problem areas โ such as dryness โ that need addressing.
AD 2: Huel
โNutritionally complete food, simply delivered. #huelโ

What Sets This Creative Apart?
The Hook:
Deploying a myth as an initial draw ingeniously sparks curiosity. "Alright, why might this be considered a myth?"
Pricing Strategy:
The cost-per-meal model pioneered by companies like Huel, Gousto, and Hello Fresh, is an absolute game-changer. It ingeniously spreads the upfront cost across each usage, transforming the perspective on value. So instead of staring down the barrel of a ยฃ58 Huel packet purchase, you can now balance the ยฃ1.68 per meal against your habitual ยฃ6 lunch splurge at Pret.
