Summary

The video presents static image ads as an underused way to scale e-commerce and dropshipping products. Its main operating principle is to research proven ad concepts, then adapt multiple formats to a product rather than copying a competitor’s creative verbatim. The presenter argues that creative diversity helps reach customers with different motivations and gives ad-platform campaigns more variations to test.

Performance examples shared

The presenter cites results from his own campaigns:

  • A static creative reportedly spent €60,000 and generated over €150,000 in revenue, with a €3.35 CPM and approximately 2.56 ROAS.
  • Another reportedly spent €40,000 and generated over €124,000 in revenue.
  • Other examples included roughly €15,000–€16,000 in spend and €45,000–€50,000 in revenue; one was described as achieving 3.16 ROAS.
  • The presenter also points to static ads with over 9 million views and over 1 million views as evidence of reach.

These are examples attributed to the presenter, not independently verified benchmarks.

Ad research process

  • Look for evidence of scale: Prioritize ads with substantial impressions. The presenter treats high impression counts as a practical signal that a store has invested in the creative and likely found it commercially useful.
  • Favor European ads: EU ad transparency makes impression data visible, which can help identify creatives that have received meaningful distribution.
  • Prefer dropshipping-style stores: The presenter recommends learning primarily from stores whose products can be sourced through dropshipping and whose business model is more likely to depend on first-sale profitability. Large brands may accept losses on initial sales, making their ads less relevant to that goal.
  • Use ad-research tools: The presenter demonstrates Trend Track and says the same general method can be used with Ad Library. The subtitles appear to render the tool name as “After Lib.”
  • Example Trend Track filters:
    • Select image-only ads.
    • Set a minimum of 300,000 impressions.
    • Filter for stores created within the last one or two years to find relatively recent businesses.
  • Example Ad Library filters: Limit page followers to about 30,000 on Instagram and 70,000 on Facebook to reduce the number of large brands in the results.
  • Keep monitoring: Start with an initial review of ads from the past one to two years, then check for new concepts regularly—weekly, every two weeks, or monthly. The presenter says older concepts can still work, so don’t dismiss an ad solely because it ran earlier.

Static-ad concepts to test

The presenter recommends adapting these formats to the product and testing variations:

  • Bullet-point benefits: Use arrows, icons, numbered points, or denser text to make product benefits easy to scan.
  • Split-screen creatives: Show problem versus solution, before versus after, benefits alongside the product in use, or a comparison such as “us versus them.”
  • Social proof: Feature customer reviews in formats such as review-site ratings, Facebook comments, Messenger/iMessage or WhatsApp conversations, verified-buyer posts, and Instagram Stories.
  • Offer-led ads: Make discounts, bundles, free bonuses, limited stock, or promotional pricing prominent for customers already interested in the product.
  • Refund or guarantee messaging: Use a clear refund promise to address purchase hesitation.
  • Handwritten, paper, and sticky-note styles: Present offers or benefits as notes, lists, signs, or informal messages to make the ad feel different from polished product advertising.
  • Text-heavy and native-looking posts: Try blog-style copy, founder messages, Facebook-like posts, or other formats that resemble organic content.
  • Simple product photography: A straightforward product image can refresh a campaign, especially for clear, visually appealing products or fashion.
  • Crossed-out objections: Strike through common problems or alternatives and present the product as the solution.
  • Phone-interface formats: Test notes, notifications, or AirDrop-style layouts.
  • Search-style formats: Mimic a Google search query and show the product as the answer.
  • Illustrations: Use drawings to explain benefits, particularly when showing a body part directly would be unsuitable.
  • Photo collages: Show product colors, use cases, or settings to help customers imagine how they might use it.
  • Numbers and statistics: Highlight relevant figures or recommendation rates where substantiated.
  • Visual demonstrations: Use cues such as flames, cold imagery, or durability props to communicate warmth, weather resistance, or toughness.

Practical recommendations and cautions

  • Build creative diversity: Different shoppers need different reasons to buy—reassurance, a clear solution to a problem, comparison with alternatives, or an attractive offer. Develop multiple concepts so campaigns can identify which messages convert.
  • Adapt the concept, not just the product image: The presenter emphasizes borrowing the format and angle, even when the example comes from another niche.
  • Translate and tailor copy: Many examples were originally in other languages. Adapt their copywriting and benefits to the target product and audience.
  • Be cautious with before-and-after claims: Explicit before-and-after ads may be rejected by ad platforms. The presenter recommends testing carefully and considering less direct comparisons.
  • Check image and content restrictions: Body-focused visuals may face restrictions, particularly if they appear to show nudity or sensitive body parts.
  • Use figures responsibly: The video encourages leading with statistics, but any figures used in ads should be supportable.

Presenter and sources

  • Presenter: Zigho, also associated with the channel name Zezinho Ecom.
  • Tools and references mentioned: Trend Track, Ad Library (the name is unclear in the subtitles), and examples of ads from European e-commerce and dropshipping stores.
