354. Design Ad Creatives That Gets Attention - Here's How

354. Design Ad Creatives That Gets Attention - Here's How

Author: Salome Schillack May 19, 2026 Duration: 31:36

Tired of being told you need 500 fresh ad creatives every single day just to keep your Meta ads alive? 🚀

Here's what most ad advice gets wrong for course creators: it wasn't built for you. It was built for e-commerce — for selling lipsticks, hoodies, and fidget spinners on a tight seven-to-ten-day promo window. When coaches and course creators follow that advice, it quietly backfires.

You're not selling widgets. You're selling transformation. Your funnels are longer, your campaigns are mostly lead magnet and webinar ads, and you only need to reach the right person once to get that email address. In this episode I walk you through the creative strategy actually designed for online experts — including the "microsecond test," the placement "twin set" trick, and the anti-fiddling plan that makes Facebook and Instagram ads feel easy again. ☕️

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Discover why e-commerce ad advice actively penalizes course creators who follow it

  • Learn the "microsecond test" that tells you instantly if your creative will stop the right person

  • Master the placement "twin set" method so your ads work in newsfeed, stories, and reels

  • Build a simple three-to-five concept system you can set up once and leave alone for seven days
