Ad Professor Original: Spotify

Here's an ad I made for Spotify.


Great Ad: Joseph Giles

🧪 Principle: Status Metaphor

Good advertising can turn door handles into a status symbol.

One of the best pieces of copy of all time.


Great Ad: Reporters Without Borders

🧪 Principle: Visual Misdirection Reversal

This ad uses visual censorship to mislead the viewer, then twists it to

show how censorship itself misleads.

Brilliant.


Social Media Ad: Huel

🧪 Principle: Minimal Design = Maximum Clarity

One bold number.

One surprising line.

One rich visual.

There’s zero clutter

Just contrast and intrigue.


Social Media Ad: Lagoon Sleep

🧪 Principle: Interface Hijacking

Use a familiar interface people trust to stop the scroll.


Great Video Ad: Mous Case

🧪 Principle: Proof in the Extreme

Don’t explain your product’s strength

Push it to the breaking point and let the evidence speak.

Full ad here.
