When the brand finally hits a marketing breakthrough and is 'printing money,' who should get the biggest merit badge?

Creative Strategist?
Media Buyer?
CRO Specialist?
Copywriter?

What's the perfect length for a video ad?

Some say 30 seconds. Others swear by 60.

How long are your top-performing ads?

Your SaaS ads still need UGC.

Why?

Because no amount of fancy UI shots beats a real person saying:

“This tool saved me hours.”

My client is looking for UGC Creators from 🇺🇸 or 🇨🇦 to collaborate on content for an exciting book platform.

If that sounds like you (or someone you know), please reach out.

I interviewed with Amazon 3 years ago.

I dove into LeetCode… and realized the exercises were brutal.

While googling for help, I found a platform that offers every exercise with solutions.

I got it right away.

But it was bad.

Couldn't get a refund.

How do you sell your SaaS?

The fastest way to simplify the price

Eliminate the risk.

Don't say "30-day refund."

Say: "Try it risk-free. If you don't love it, you don't pay a penny."

Zero risk = zero confusion

How do you deal with the guilt of not making much progress on your project the previous week?

How to tell if your video ad works before launch:

👉 Hook: Do the first 3s grab attention?
👉 Visuals: Clear even without sound?
👉 Product: Every shot ties back to it?
👉 Emotion: Does it make people feel something?
👉 CTA: Do final shots guide to the next step?

Lol 50% of people I talked to this week from agencies or e-comms are either on vacation or working remotely from somewhere tropical.

Seems like e-commerce pays really well.

Hooks that actually work:

✅ The Scam Hook
✅ TikTok Reply Hook
✅ The ‘Why did no one tell me?’ Hook

What’s your hook to go?

Huge win today!

My second interview for my product was with a fantastic Video Editor.

We dove into:

✓ The frustrating challenges of subjective feedback and last-minute revisions

✓ We even brainstormed some killer future features the tool could adopt to make their life easier

Stop guessing why it works for your competitor

Now you can see exactly how they do it.

So you can easily improve your #creatives by learning from them.

See how 👇

Share an update 3-5 times a week.

It can be a brief text post, a screenshot, or a quick video clip.

Consistency is more important than perfection.

Your ads won’t be perfect at first

The good news is, now you can break them down frame by frame:

1/ Identify key strengths and areas to improve

2/ Get a score for every aspect of your ad

3/ Analyze shot-by-shot

4/ Generate a full transcript

5/ Get split-test recommendations
