Elements

Elements For Modular Video Advertising[/caption]Elements are the components that make up your ad, think about baking a cake.You want to start looking at contents in a way that when you see these pieces, you can identify them. Once you can identify them! You can recreate them! Because now you can understand what is contributing to your success.Our team figured this out and made each element, 4 seconds long, because that’s the amount of time somebody will need to read the copy and take in the visual. We always aim for 4 seconds & hardly ever go over.This is all you will need is to identify what pieces you have been using for your success. Here are the elements that make up an ad, but not all of them are a part of one ad!

Video Multiplication For Modular Video Advertising[/caption]You want your elements to be modular! Why? Because you want repeatable success for your creatives. If you want to recreate your success, you need to be able to break it down and know what your ingredient list is.You can then take a successful element from one ad, plug it into another ad, and several other ads. Being modular extends the life of your content & lowers your cost per content.

Segments & Structure

You need to know to the deepest level of what it’s going to be categorized so you can use it over and over again.Anytime you can introduce a product with social proof, PR, or a number of reviews, it is HIGHLY effective and people will start to believe it is all it seems to be.The structure of these elements is very important because they determine what framework you’ll be using. For example, these two are similar but there is a difference between product intro and discovery. Mixing the two will set off the tone, perspective, and the viewers.Without structures, you are not able to reuse the element easily, and not going to have much life out of them. It won’t let you roll over the success you have.

Auditing

Begin with creating your inventory and taking the contents you already have.To Audit, you want to look for your winners & losers. Find which element works & didn’t work, and segregate them. From here, we want to cross-reference them. Look for what element is in this ad & that ad, and find the one being repeated.The next question to solve is, which one of these is leading to success? These are the ones you want to be repeating. Take Inventory, track how many elements do you have that lead to success.You’ll want to plug in the winning element and play, you’ll be mixing and matching the elements with an educated approach. After you have received data back from the Plug and Play, you can now start split testing because you’ll know what each part of the ad is made out of.[caption id="attachment_8025" align="aligncenter" width="1173"]

How To Test Your Modular Video Ads

Good creatives should never die out! Let’s make sure we’re getting rid of the riff raff and promoting the hell outta the winning video ads.It’s always important to test ads with the P.L.R.T. or the Path of Least Resistance Test. If you’re testing creatives, that means you should ONLY be testing creatives.This means that proven copy and proven thumbnails should be used to prevent these variables from affecting your results.From there, you’re gonna start gold mining. Red, yellow, and green are used to sort the different variations to see which video ads performed the best.Red is going to be at the bottom of the barrel, below metrics, and needs to be cut.Yellow is in the middle and can go either way. To figure out what to do with yellow video ads, use a correlation decision making tree.Green are your winning video ads that have floated to the top and need to be promoted and scaled like crazy.

The Power of UGCs

User Generated Content, or UGC, is a really useful framework that can be repurposed to create MANY more video ads than before.There’s more than two ways to use UGC content, but we’ll go over two in this article as an example. The two ways we’ll be talking about using UGC content is in Direct Response (DR) script driven videos and in element morphing pieces of video ads.Any winning videos can be turned into UGC content through UGC morphing. When morphing, we’re basically turning all text-driven elements that were in the video ad and automatically bring them to UGC style content. Turning the video ad into something very similar to “As Seen On TV” ads.In past frameworks, AFTER the solution has been introduced inside of the video ad, the UGC content is used to provide social proof and reinforce the product as a believable solution to the target audience.[caption id="attachment_8028" align="aligncenter" width="2798"]
