Brief next

Three concepts worth testing now

Each one takes a pattern that works here and fills a gap no brand fills.

01

The wear test, on camera

9 videos promise the piece won't tarnish, fade, turn green or hurt. No video tests it: Connecty finds no torture test in any of the 43. Film one piece after a month of showers and workouts, next to a new one.

02

Say the deal in the video

Ana Luisa's ad copy names a discount on 8 of its 10 videos, but no video says it. Only 6 of 43 videos have a clear CTA. End on the offer, said out loud, with the date it ends.

03

Give the deal a voice

All 6 videos without speech get a medium hook; all 37 with speech get a strong one. 3 of GLD's 4 deal videos are text only. GLD 10 says it: "you can get any two pieces for $99". Do that for the BOGO.

More detail

Every quote, every ad and the format definitions

What they say, word for word

Hook43 of 43 ads

The strongest hooks are a creator's first-person line: a fake complaint, an opinion, a fear.

Problem8 of 43 ads

Problems are personal: sensitive ears, an overwhelming ring search, a basic ring.

Benefit30 of 43 ads

The benefit is a feeling: put together, a glow up, an easy ring search.

Proof22 of 43 ads

Proof is the creator's own habit: she wears it every day, sleeps in it, gets compliments.

  • Every time I wear this ring, I get tons of compliments. Everybody wants to know where did I get it.Ana Luisa 1 ↗
  • Because I am doing everything in them. I am showering, I'm sleeping, I'm running my errands, I'm going out.Ana Luisa 9 ↗
  • I wear this every day. Like, actually, I wear the jewelry every single day.GLD 9 ↗
  • I literally cannot stop staring at the sketch.Frank Darling 8 ↗

CTA23 of 43 ads
