Rising above the noise with David Brier

What Facebook’s Stupid (and Irresistible) Ads Made Me Do

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Facebook's Stupid Ads Interpreted

Ever notice Facebook’s impossible-to-ignore (yet often reminiscent of snake oil) ads seen on the right-hand side of your news feed?

You know, the ones that promote everything from weight loss to growing your hair to thinning your waist to finding the perfect mate to making tens of thousands every month without ever leaving your bed?

Facebook Giveth,
Facebook Taketh Away

Well, just the other day, I ran across one that was so corny, I was, shall we say, inspired.

What you see above is the result from this “inspiration.”

I followed a lot of the format and injected my own “unique twists” to keep it interesting.

After all, what business owner wants to live with:

  • eye strain?
  • a thick neck?
  • undefined elbows?
  • itchy parts? or (worst of all)
  • sagging ankles?

Plus there are the other side effects (including being mistaken for one of the Duck Dynasty stars). Whoa.

This was important enough for me to share this in this post.

The actual link and article the above image goes to is here. (While the ad is questionable, the post it links to isn’t.)

(For those seeking more serious meaty articles: if you’re a startup, you’ll want to read this article now. If you’re an existing brand that is looking how to rebrand the effective and proven way, click here for that post.)
