More about this formula

What the pictures show: Photos of everyday people actively wearing or interacting with a device (CPAP, inhaler, glucose sensor, etc.) to show real-life use and normalize the treatment.
On the networks: Keep people fully dressed in ordinary poses: suggestive shots get rejected.

More about this formula

More about this formula
One thing to test: Make your own before/after in the same form: your product, a real-looking customer, an honest result.
What the pictures show: Side-by-side or split images that show a visible ‘before’ problem and an improved ‘after’ result to imply the product delivers a clear physical change.
On the networks: These are running on the networks right now, so a before/after in the same form is fair game. Keep it honest and no more extreme than the ones already running.
A real ad using it that week · +6 more Doctor or lab credibility shot
4 advertisers · up to 62 days · 11.5k+ sites
A credible person explaining something lends authority without saying a word.
- HookSomeone who knows
- EmotionReassurance
- PersuasionAuthority
More about this formula
One thing to test: Show a real-looking specialist in their workplace, mid-explanation, not a celebrity or a stock smile.
What the pictures show: Clinicians, lab researchers or clinical equipment in-frame to lend scientific authority and trustworthiness to the claim being made.
On the networks: No celebrities or recognisable real people, and no fake news layouts.
A real ad using it that week · +9 more Close-up of the problem area
2 advertisers · up to 35 days · 56.4k+ sites
A close look at the problem makes readers check their own.
- Hook“Is that me?”
- EmotionWorry, then relief
- PersuasionLiking and similarity: their problem is mine
More about this formula
One thing to test: Show the same kind of close-up for the problem your product solves, at the same strength as the ads already running.
What the pictures show: A tight, often clinical close-up that highlights the specific body part or symptom (swollen ankle, varicose veins, painful joint, etc.) so the viewer immediately recognizes the problem the product treats.
On the networks: Close-ups like these are running right now, so the same kind of shot is fair game. Keep it no more graphic than the ones already running: nothing gory, nothing sexual.

Using an older week
A winning formula that kept running for several weeks is stronger evidence than one that showed up once. Check whether it is still running on the latest health and wellness page before you build on it, or see the winning formulas that kept winning the longest. Make your own version for your product, never another advertiser’s pictures, names or claims.
