Quick creative analysis of one of my favorite brands Waterdop🔥
They have a heavy focus on UGC (sorry AGC @herrmanndigital 🤣)

You will see some interesting elements and patterns.

Ready?
Let's dive in👇👇
1/5
Thumbnail analysis:
👉Face. It always grabs attention.
👉"Ask Me!" Headline - It's native and it points out one of the BIG problems of the target audience
👉They show the product
👉Subtitles point out the same problem
2/5
Hook analysis👇

Visuals:
They start with the talking head but immediately switch to "how to" use a product and then they switch back to the model.

Text:
They point out the problem and EASY transition to the solution.
I like how they point out that this solution is easy.
3/5
Product introduction:
👉Visuals have a similar pattern. Talking head but then they switch to product-focused visuals in a very native way.

Product benefits:
👉Packed with Vitamins & the bottle is beautiful
👉Visuals are the same pattern
👉"Ask Me!" headline is always there
4/5
CTA:
Done in a very native way: "I mean, come one. So go on and check it out."

And then they stop the video with an image of their starter pack and another value prop "Drink More"
5/5
Their pacing is great.

Really quick but not too quick so you can consume all the information but you don't get bored.

And if you look at their library. They have a ton of similar ads. So these must work well.

If you find this 🧵valuable please share it with the world😊

Stop using testimonials randomly in your ads

Use them to GUIDE your creative scripts instead.

Here’s how we do it

A thread 🧵: Image
1. Testimonial Guidance:

We start by using testimonials to shape our scripts.

These can be in various formats:

- First-person
- Brand-centric
- Educational

For example, we might have a creator say,

"You should do X for your bald spots."
2. Social Proof:

Social proof usually comes in the second part of the video.

After explaining the product and its benefits, we address the viewer's potential objections.

This is where testimonials shine.

Creating a storyboard for your creatives isn't throwing together some ideas and hoping for the best.

It's a meticulous process that perfects every detail for a compelling message.

Here's how we give instructions to the creator: Image
1. Product Understanding

- Explanation: We start with a quick explanation about the product.
- Connection: Ensures creators fully grasp and emotionally connect to the product.
- Immersion: Creators understand the role they’re playing, enhancing their performance.
2. Background on the Angle

- Context: Provide background on the angle to set the right tone.
- Emotional Connection: Helps the creator get the right mindset for the shoot.

I recently signed on a client in the compression sock niche,

So I was thinking we do another breakdown of the creative analysis process

I’ll show you the guide I used to refine their ad strategy and maximize performance: Image
Step 1: Testing Various Angles

First, we identify multiple angles to determine what works best for the audience.

Here are some example angles for compression socks:
1. Swelling: Targeting individuals with issues like swollen feet.

2. Physical Conditions: Addressing conditions like neuropathy or poor circulation.

3. Work-Related Use: Focusing on people who stand for long periods.

Behind every great strategy is years of experience.

So, you can either spend the next 5 years learning this…

Or you can pick it all up from reading this post.

The choice is yours.

After 8 years in the industry,

I’ve decided to share my PERFORMANCE CREATIVE process.

Everything from research → execution.

Here’s the only roadmap your DTC brand will EVER need:
1️⃣ Research:

This can be broken down into four simple steps:

Reviews

>Find the most frequent problems and results that people talk about.
>Learn how they talk about these situations.
>The most frequent are your main targets.

Post-Purchase Surveys

>A different perspective than reviews.
>We get an answer WHY people bought for the first time and not WHY they enjoy the product.

Ad Account Analysis

>We look at what angles they tried.
>What creatives they tried.
>What are their hook rates and what kind of people they stopped.
>What are their hold rates and the connection between hook & hold.
>Age and gender analysis, placements - We get a good idea about what creative styles we should run.
>What kind of visuals they tried.
>We look at how they demonstrate the product.

Competitor Analysis

>Most frequent angles.
>Hooks.
>Script structures.
>What is their editing
>What are their visuals.Image
2️⃣ Strategy:

Based on everything, we find patterns.

>Most frequent angles: These are the angles that consistently perform well.
>Creative styles: We analyze what styles work best for each angle.
>What they haven’t tried: Identifying missed opportunities.
>Internal hook document and script structure: How can we modify in our game plan.

Most common angles based on our experience:

Problem-focused
Results
Depositioning
Situational

Creative is your TARGETING🎯

But what does it even mean?

Your message in the hook actually stops the right people.

Let’s look at 9 examples👇👇👇 Image
1/9

Target persona: People who travel a lot✈️

Visuals are the actual situation at the airport.
2/9

Target audience: Parents with kids around 6 years old

Call out that with text but then also show kids that age.
