In reality taking a look at all these apps it appears that evidently they’ve tried FAN for some restricted time period and appear to not be utilizing it an excessive amount of anymore. So the evaluation of those creatives is extra related when contemplating how they’re used for Fb feed advertisements or different Fb channels.

Solely two different advert networks appear to be used: AdMob by way of Common App Campaigns and Unity (by Badoo and Tinder).

Our favourite creatives from essentially the most used video advertisements

Amongst the highest 5 video advert creatives which have been used essentially the most by every of the apps (utilizing the share of impressions given by Cell Motion), we chosen 3 we like and are consultant of what appears to carry out nicely.

Some are quite simple and easy, and a few required extra work from a video manufacturing perspective.

Bumble

That is the everyday “testimonial” advert for Bumble, who’s utilizing loads of these of their Fb promoting.

It’s tremendous easy, and meant to look consumer sourced (or perhaps truly used). This advert artistic already has had greater than 1.5 million views and has subsequently been used quite a bit by Bumble.

To allow them to have some consistency between advertisements of this type, the caption has the Bumble colours.

With their current tremendous bowl advert, they’ve additionally spinned off a couple of prime quality advert creatives with Serena that they’re testing.

OKCupid

Like most different relationship apps OKCupid additionally has video creatives which are testimonials or visuals of {couples} collectively, normally with the angle of “substance” vs. profile photograph as that is their strategy.

What they’ve been utilizing essentially the most nonetheless on Fb Viewers Community (and Fb feed) are advert creatives on the DTF idea they launched greater than a yr in the past now. In the event you’re not within the US and haven’t seen any OKCupid billboards or subway advertisements, the DTF idea is a twist they gave to the acronym (initially All the way down to F***).

It is a fairly sensible strategy and it should have labored pretty nicely since a yr later they’re nonetheless leveraging the idea and designs, at the least in digital.

The advert artistic with essentially the most impression on Fb Viewers Community is the one beneath (regardless that they’ve since stopped campaigns on FAN), and a number of different variations (quite a bit in static) are presently utilized in Fb feed advertisements.

This provides a way of how a holistic strategy will be carried out. It’s robust from a branding perspective and may final for some time.

It’s fascinating to additionally see different relationship apps like Tinder taking a robust “stand” with their strategy (they now have #SingleNotSorry and #AdultingCanWait advertisements in dwell motion video).

Happn

Though we really feel the execution and high quality of the dwell motion photographs would achieve from being improved, it appears that evidently Happn has discovered the kind of creatives that work for them.

Right here too they have an inclination to decide on one thing that’s in keeping with the distinctive strategy of the app: reconnecting with somebody you crossed path with.

They’ve been utilizing a number of creatives round that “reconnection” idea, with variations in a number of languages. As a result of some variations should not have actors speaking, they’re additionally in a position to localize them pretty simply (so long as the actors may look native) by simply altering the voice over and subtitles/finish playing cards.

Right here is an instance with essentially the most used advert creatives on Fb Viewers Community in line with Cell Motion.

As talked about earlier like a number of different apps Happn doesn’t appear to be utilizing FAN anymore, nonetheless by taking a look at the creatives they use for Fb feed advertisements that is an strategy they’re utilizing quite a bit (with some movies totaling greater than 500k views already).

It additionally appears that they’re upping the standard a bit, and their newest creatives there look much less novice.
