An ad can do everything right and still lose the sale on the very next screen. Here's the gap that quietly kills otherwise winning campaigns.
Turning one winning ad into a template for every product is one of the highest-leverage moves in paid social, and also one of the easiest to run into the ground.
Everything below the first frame only matters to the fraction of people who don't scroll past it. Here's why that first frame deserves most of the attention.
