14 Fucking Awesome Ad

Hooks were ALWAYS important.

Even MORE so now, where people have endless content options. The hooks

we’re going to talk about today were pulled off of Youtube.

Why Youtube? Because that’s where I consistently see the strongest creatives.

It’s a super competitive, interruption-marketing environment where everyone is competing


for attention.

However, these hooks can easily be adjusted for Facebook, email, VSLs, etc. In fact,

the gap is closing FAST between “ads”, “content” and “sales messages.”

You see more and more brands using weird scroll stopping shit in their actual VSL
leads. And it makes sense. Whatever gets attention.

There’s Two Kinds Of Attention


Targeted Attention

Talking specifically to your market. The exact people you want to attract. Ideal
customers.

Collateral Attention

Mass appeal. General human interest. Passing curiosity. The impossible to ignore
story.

GOOD ads generate targeted attention. GREAT ads

generate both.

They speak at their core market FIRST. But make the ad interesting enough to
where even less than ideal prospects are still sucked in.

What Is A Youtube Hook?

A YouTube ad hook refers to the initial few seconds of a YouTube advertisement. Its
purpose is to swiftly capture the viewer's attention, enticing them to either watch the full
ad or engage with it before they select the "SKIP AD" option.

Given that users can typically skip ads after just 5 seconds on YouTube, these precious
moments are vital for advertisers to captivate your target audience.

Ultimately, the ad's success often relies on the strength of this initial hook. It’s the make or
break moment.

A compelling YouTube ad hook should accomplish two objectives:

#1: Capture Immediate Attention: Whether through captivating visuals or intriguing


spoken content, if the ad fails to grip the viewer right off the bat, they'll likely skip it.

#2: Relevant to the Target Audience: Nobody wants to watch your ads. So your ads
need to feel PAINFUL to ignore. Simply put, you need to imply that watching your ad will
make your prospect’s life BETTER in some meaningful way. And skipping your ad will
make their life WORSE.

Two Ways Of Calling Out To Your


Prospect: Direct And Indirect

Here are two examples from the dating niche to help better understand
direct and indirect callouts:

Direct Callout Hook Example: “So you like a girl and want to go on a date with her.
But the only problem is when you try to text her, she takes forever to respond or worse.”

>> This directly addresses those facing this specific situation, without adding any
complexities.

Indirect Callout Example: “Online dating never worked for me, at first I thought
maybe i'm just too f***in ugly, but then somehow over the last year…”

>> This is indirect because it expresses a sentiment many can relate to, without directly
asking, "Do you feel online dating isn't working for you?" It subtly connects with
viewers who have harbored similar thoughts.

In essence, direct and indirect callouts are the two main strategies you'll observe in
YouTube ads. These techniques encapsulate the primary methods of engaging potential
customers on the platform.

14 High-Performing YouTube Ad
Hooks:
These hooks work for 90-95% of YouTube ads. It's rare to find an ad that doesn't fall into
one of these hooks. They are the foundation of effective ads.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

These following hooks are battle-tested, they have been tried and proven to work time and
time again.

They're versatile too—they can be adapted to fit any niche or product.

Again, the magic often lies in the first few seconds of your ad. You can get transformative
results just by tweaking the beginning of your video ads. The core message of the ad
remains the same; only the initial seconds/hook change. And that can make all the
difference.

- Hook #1 -

The Proof or “Let Me Show You How” Hook


Hook Brief Intro:

This is a basic and prevalent type of hook, especially evident in the "make money online"
niche. It's effective for claims promising substantial results to prospects.

Hook Goal/Purpose:
The primary aim of this hook is to present proof that you can solve your audience's
problems. This proof can manifest as customer or student success stories or personal,
company, or guru success stories. Using customer success on top of personal success
usually yields better results.

If you lack customer proof, you can begin with personal proof, or borrow proof from
other businesses' publicly published results or reference established/proven facts.

For example, to use proof from outside sources, we say "70% of youtube searches start
with how to...". Trying to show people that YouTube is a great source of traffic because
you can harness the power of intent targeting.

Student/Customer Success Stories Proof Examples:


wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Show proof that your other customers are satisfied and have achieved great results
using your products or services to pique their interest.

If you have good student stories to share, the student story hook can work great, especially
if your own story isn't that relatable. Sharing the story of a student or of several students
can help more and more potential customers relate to what you are trying to help them
with!

Now, I want you to adapt those YouTube ad hooks for the following market. Please stick to the
structure and underlying psychological principles. (For example, do not include any strange
greetings).

However, ensure that you adapt any promises so that the new hooks makes sense. (No one
should be able to recognize that it was taken from the previous YouTube ad hooks).

Please DO NOT make the NEW hooks longer or shorter than the provided example hooks
above.

Here are the market details:

[Emotional Impact Of Problem] = lack of confidence, feeling undesirable, ashamed of their


body, feeling “lost” like they no longer recognize themselves, afraid of future health issues
caused by their weight, feeling like a burden on their children and grandchildren, feeling like
life is passing them by

Guidelines:

Be direct. Write in an appropriate tone for our target market (Write how a typical member of
our target market would ACTUALLY talk in casual conversation while out at lunch with a
close friend).
IMPORTANT: Write using simple, conversational language. At a 3rd grade reading level. Short,
punchy, easy to read sentences and action oriented. Short paragraphs. Limit words with more
than 3 syllables.
Write using active, visual, action-oriented words. Limit/avoid passive constructions.
Be VIVID, DESCRIPTIVE, VISCERAL, VISUAL and ULTRA-SPECIFIC when describing
benefits. Do not mention anything vague.
Make sure we stay LASER-FOCUSED on the benefits referenced in the primary
promise. Remove any fluff and focus on the core message.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Our prospects should be able to see, feel, and experience the situation you’re describing… as
if it’s really happening right now. It needs to impact them emotionally. Anything less is a
failure.
Optimize each sentence for maximum emotional impact.
Include vivid, specific details that create a strong emotional connection.
Ensure the tone is relatable and speaks directly to the audience's experiences and feelings.
MOST IMPORTANT: Do NOT artificially try to “complete” the hook. I’m going to attach
this hook to the rest of the email. And it will all make sense. So for now, I JUST want you to
focus on generating the most compelling YouTube ad hooks possible. Without worrying
about what comes next.

Write me 20 new variations of Youtube ad hooks for my market, following the principles
above. Remember, these hooks are designed to drive maximum engagement from our target
prospects. If 100 of our ideal prospects watch the first 5 seconds of our video, at least 99 of
them should want to CONTINUE watching the video. Anything less is considered a failure.

Also, since these are VIDEO ADS, please include suggested VISUALS to accompany these
hooks. These visuals needs to grab attention immediately. Things that are weird, unusual, a
“pattern interrupt” from what our prospects expect to see tend to work best.

The Simple Mistake

Hook Brief Introduction:


Discussing common mistakes made by prospects in a market not only reflects an insider's
understanding of the industry, but it also grabs the attention of those who may unknowingly be
making these errors. When positioned as a hook, it can be an impactful way to lead into an

and we can show you how."

The goal: Talk about a common mistake that you see prospects in your industry
making. This type of hook is very effective if you're using ad copy that is centered
around a new opportunity.

The power of these hooks lies in its ability to resonate with a specific pain point or typical

this hook to the rest of the email. And it will all make sense. So for now, I JUST want you to
focus on generating the most compelling YouTube ad hooks possible. Without worrying
about what comes next.

Write me 20 new variations of Youtube ad hooks for my market, following the principles
above. Remember, these hooks are designed to drive maximum engagement from our target
prospects. If 100 of our ideal prospects watch the first 5 seconds of our video, at least 99 of
them should want to CONTINUE watching the video. Anything less is considered a failure.

Remember to explore the EMOTIONAL impact of how these mistakes impact our
prospects in their daily lives. Be specific and visceral.

Be wildly creative with these different ad hooks. Remember, we need maximum


curiosity.

Also, since these are VIDEO ADS, please include suggested VISUALS to accompany these
hooks. These visuals needs to grab attention immediately. Things that are weird, unusual, a
“pattern interrupt” from what our prospects expect to see tend to work best.

solution.

focused on the WRONG thing…

Your entire existence has been about MONEY.”

If you’ve spent hours plugging numbers into spreadsheets, then check out this new
software that automatically does everything for you with a few clicks…

Explanation: This type of ad emphasizes the time-consuming traditional manual


approach and presents the software as a modern solution.

Example #6: Personal Development Niche:


There's no such thing as a good or bad memory there is no such thing as a good or bad memory
there's just a trained memory and an untrained memory.

Explanation: The speaker challenges the long-held belief of inherent memory quality and

You are an absolute master at grabbing and holding the interest of complete strangers. And
creating interest and desire for the products and services you’re tasked with promoting.

The most important part of the Youtube ad is the "Hook." That refers to the
opening of the video ad. Specifically the first 6 seconds. Because that's the time
where the audience decides whether to watch the ad or skip the ad.
So the first 6 seconds needs to be especially compelling. It needs to create massive
curiosity and desire, so members of our target market want to continue watching the
ad.

- Hook #5 -

The Visualization Hook


Hook Brief Intro:
This hook draws prospects in by getting them to visualize a specific result or outcome, linking
a desired goal to something simple and visual.

Hook Goal/Purpose:
The objective of the Visualization Hook is to initiate with a visually captivating element, often a
tangible object or a relatable scenario, and then transition to explain its connection to a more
intricate subject. By starting with a basic visual element, the content's complexity becomes more
digestible. This approach mirrors teaching methods where learners begin with simple concepts
and progressively delve into complex ones. Furthermore, this hook encourages the audience to
imagine brighter prospects and outcomes.

Example #1: E-commerce Niche:


Do you know what this is? Because believe it or not, this weird little blue tool actually sells
thousands of units right here on amazon for $19.99, and you can buy them right here for a
dollar 97 per unit.

With over 82% of households in America having an active prime membership. Can

you guess what this little bad boy makes?...

Explanation: This ad capitalizes on the viewer's curiosity about the blue tool's
significance and potential profit, especially given its prevalence in American
households.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Example #2: Home Business Niche:


Just imagine the perfect small business that you could start. What would that look like?

You'd be able to work from home; you wouldn't have to rent expensive commercial office
space…

Explanation: This ad paints a clear and relatable picture of an ideal business scenario, thus
catching the viewer's attention. Its effectiveness is evident by its longevity since 2016.

Example #3: Wealth-building Niche:


Imagine making $246,000 a minute, that's 14 million dollars an hour and 355 million dollars
a day. Listen, I don't know if anybody personally could ever make that kind of money…

Explanation: This ad draws viewers in with its exaggerated figures, making them
ponder the vast possibilities, even if they seem far-fetched.

Example #4: Architecture Niche:


Ever seen a cube like this? This simple geometric shape is the basis for some of the most
advanced architectural designs in the world.

From this, we've built wonders.

Explanation: A simple cube is used as a segue into the world of advanced architecture,
highlighting how basic foundations can lead to magnificent creations.

Example #5: Astronomy/Philosophy Niche:


Picture a single grain of sand.

Now, realize that our galaxy contains more stars than grains of sand on all the beaches on Earth.
Let that sink in.

Explanation: By juxtaposing a tangible element like sand with the vastness of the
universe, the viewer is made to marvel at the enormity and wonder of existence.

Additional Insights:
By strategically placing an intriguing visual element or scenario at the beginning of the content,
it's possible to make complex ideas or prospects more approachable. This not
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

only makes content more engaging but also promotes better understanding. Given the right
circumstances, the Visualization Hook can be a powerful tool for content creators, especially
those looking to break down intricate concepts.

- Hook #6 -

The Provocative/Abrasive Hook


Hook Goal/Purpose:
This hook is designed to make a bold, unexpected statement to catch the prospect's attention
immediately. By invoking curiosity or even a hint of controversy, the viewer is enticed to watch
further. It's crucial, however, to ensure that any explicit content, like swear words, is censored or
bleeped out, especially on platforms like YouTube, to avoid any content violations.

For example, a provocative statement about commonly accepted practices in a particular industry
or niche can lead viewers to rethink their understanding or beliefs and engage more with the
content.

Example Demonstrations:
These examples illustrate how a provocative or abrasive statement can draw the viewer's
attention and make them curious enough to engage further with the content. The success of this
hook often lies in its unexpectedness and the emotions it evokes.

Example #1 (Online Business Niche): By Sabri Suby…


Most businesses are walking around trying to sell to complete strangers…

Explanation: This statement is jarring because it challenges conventional business wisdom.


Sabri doesn't directly address his prospects because he is targeting a broad audience, which
explains the vagueness. The wide applicability of his offer means it resonates with almost
anyone in the online business domain. This approach has proven successful for him, as
evidenced by the high number of views on his content.

Example #2 (Online Advertising Niche):


Think YouTube ads don’t work? That's what everyone who's failing wants you to believe.

Explanation: This statement is confrontational, directly challenging a commonly held


belief. It evokes curiosity about why such a statement would be made, prompting viewers to
continue watching.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Example #3 (Digital Marketing Niche):


You're still using this outdated marketing strategy? No wonder you're left behind.”

Explanation: This is abrasive as it directly calls out the viewer, implying that they are out of
touch. It creates an immediate reaction, either defensive or curious, both of which can drive
further engagement.

Example #4 (SEO/Content Marketing Niche):


Everyone thinks SEO is the key. That's why they're all wrong.

Explanation: By directly opposing a commonly accepted view (that SEO is essential), this
statement forces the viewer to reconsider their beliefs and engage more with the content.

PROMPT:

Today, you’re a world-class direct response copywriter and YouTube advertising expert
who specializes in writing ultra-compelling, attention-grabbing, and
high-curiosity provoking YouTube ads.

You are an absolute master at grabbing and holding the interest of complete strangers. And
creating interest and desire for the products and services you’re tasked with promoting.

The most important part of the Youtube ad is the "Hook." That refers to the

unwanted views.

Hook Brief Intro:
This hook primarily thrives on generating immediate attention from the audience by utilizing the
word "STOP" or a similar command. Often, it incites curiosity, urging the viewer to know what
follows next. It can be jarring, and works best when paired with compelling/interesting visuals.
Many times, it's further complemented by another opener like a power question or a bold
statement. The viewer gets entranced, awaiting what the advertiser has to unfold after such a
commanding interruption.

Hook Goal/Purpose:
The main purpose of the "Command Hook" is to capture instant attention, making the viewer
curious about the subsequent content. By generating this immediate pause or halt, the hook
engages the audience, urging them to pay close attention to what follows.

Examples of The Stop Hook:


Example #1 (Biz Opportunity Niche):
STOP. Do you want a much better job?

Explanation: This hook instantly draws attention towards new job opportunities.

Example #2 (E-commerce Niche):


STOP. Did you know every time you shop on Amazon you are helping someone make passive
income?

Explanation: Sheds light on the passive income prospects related to Amazon


shopping.

Example #3 (Fitness Niche):


STOP doing this exercise.

ningg.c.coouursrseess

or practice.

Explanation: Urges the viewer to reconsider their sugar consumption based on


possible unknown consequences.

Example #5 (Travel Niche):


STOP. Think twice before visiting this tourist spot.

Explanation: Creates intrigue about potential downsides or secrets related to a popular travel
destination.

Example #6 (Cybersecurity Niche):


STOP. Are you sure your computer isn’t being hacked right now?

Explanation: Generates immediate concern and curiosity about personal cybersecurity.

PROMPT:
Today, you’re a world-class direct response copywriter and YouTube advertising expert who
specializes in writing ultra-compelling, attention-grabbing, and high-curiosity provoking
YouTube ads.

You are an absolute master at grabbing and holding the interest of complete strangers. And
creating interest and desire for the products and services you’re tasked with promoting.

The most important part of the Youtube ad is the "Hook." That refers to the opening of the
video ad. Specifically the first 6 seconds. Because that's the time where the audience decides
whether to watch the ad or skip the ad.

So the first 6 seconds needs to be especially compelling. It needs to create massive curiosity and
desire, so members of our target market want to continue watching the ad.

Today, we’re going to write new ads using The Command Hook

Now, I want you to adapt those YouTube ad hooks for the following market. Please stick to the
structure and underlying psychological principles. (For example, do not include any strange
greetings).

However, ensure that you adapt any promises so that the new hooks makes sense. (No one
should be able to recognize that it was taken from the previous YouTube ad hooks).

Please DO NOT make the NEW hooks longer or shorter than the provided example hooks
above.

Here are the market details:

[Target Market]= overweight women over 45


[Problem] = menopausal weight gain making it impossible to lose stubborn fat [Emotional
Impact Of Problem] = lack of confidence, feeling undesirable, ashamed of their body, feeling
“lost” like they no longer recognize themselves, afraid of future health issues caused by their
weight, feeling like a burden on their children and grandchildren, feeling like life is passing
them by
[Primary Promise] = release your stubborn fat in a safe and healthy way
[Unique Solution]= The Metabolic Reset
[Credible Proof] = developed by female metabolism expert Andrew Hanoun, a functional
diagnostic nutrition practitioner
[Social Proof] = helped thousands of women achieve lasting weightloss without
restrictive dieting or extreme exercise

Julie, a 64 year old grandma of 6, dropped 37 pounds in 12 weeks.

Penny, age 66, was able to effortlessly regain control of her weight after 40 years of failed
dieting.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Karen, 58, was able to reach and maintain her ideal weight. Even after having her thyroid
removed.

[Common But Disliked Solutions] = restrictive diets like keto, demanding exercise
routines, shady weight loss supplements, dangerous medications like Ozempic

Guidelines:

Be direct. Write in an appropriate tone for our target market (Write how a typical member of
our target market would ACTUALLY talk in casual conversation while out at lunch with a
close friend with zero fear of judgment).
IMPORTANT: Write using simple, conversational language. At a 3rd grade reading level. Short,
punchy, easy to read sentences and action oriented. Short paragraphs. Limit words with more
than 3 syllables.
Write using active, visual, action-oriented words. Limit/avoid passive constructions.
Be VIVID, DESCRIPTIVE, VISCERAL, VISUAL and ULTRA-SPECIFIC when describing
benefits. Do not mention anything vague.
Our prospects should be able to see, feel, and experience the situation you’re describing… as
if it’s really happening right now. It needs to impact them emotionally. Anything less is a
failure.
Optimize each sentence for maximum emotional impact.
Include vivid, specific details that create a strong emotional connection.
Ensure the tone is relatable and speaks directly to the audience's experiences and feelings.

MOST IMPORTANT: Do NOT artificially try to “complete” the hook. I’m going to attach
this hook to the rest of the email. And it will all make sense. So for now, I JUST want you to
focus on generating the most compelling YouTube ad hooks possible. Without worrying
about what comes next.

Write me 20 new variations of Youtube ad hooks for my market, following the principles
above. Remember, these hooks are designed to drive maximum engagement from our target
prospects. If 100 of our ideal prospects watch the first 5 seconds of our video, at least 99 of
them should want to CONTINUE watching the video. Anything less is considered a failure.

Remember to explore the EMOTIONAL impact of how this problem/solution impacts our
prospects in their daily lives. Be specific and visceral.

ningg.c.coouursrseess

Be wildly creative with these different ad hooks. Remember, we need maximum


curiosity. Be bold and provocative.

Also, since these are VIDEO ADS, please include suggested VISUALS to accompany these
hooks. These visuals needs to grab attention immediately. Things that are weird, unusual, a
“pattern interrupt” from what our prospects expect to see tend to work best.

- Hook #12 -

The Open Loop Hook

Hook Brief Intro:


The Open Loop Hook is a masterful tool used in advertising where the goal is to captivate
the viewer with an unfinished story or an unanswered question. The viewer feels the need to
stay engaged and continue watching in order to find the resolution. This hook operates on the
Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), ensuring viewers feel compelled to see the content to its
completion.

Hook Goal/Purpose:
The purpose of the Open Loop Hook is to create an unfinished narrative or pose a question that
leaves a gap in the viewer's understanding. This intentional omission incites curiosity, ensuring
that the only way to satiate it is by watching the entire ad. Coupling this with a product or
service as the answer or solution can significantly boost engagement and conversion.

Examples of the Open Loop Hook:


Example #1 (Music Training Niche):
What's the best kept secret to becoming a great singer?

I'm going to answer that question in 30 seconds let's start that clock. hi if you don't know who I
am my name is Aaron Anastasi Anastasia…

Explanation: This example creates suspense by posing a question and then briefly shifting the
focus to introduce the speaker, ensuring the viewer remains hooked to learn the answer.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Example #2 (Stock Market Niche):


If it were easy to make money in the stock market everybody would be doing it. But they're
not rich and you know there's a reason why…

Explanation: Here, the speaker hints at an undisclosed reason, stimulating the viewer's
curiosity and enticing them to continue watching in hopes of uncovering the mystery.

Example #3 (Relationship Advice Niche):


There is one four-word question you must absolutely never ask a man if you want him to be your
boyfriend or your husband or anything beyond just a hookup who you never hear from again. do
you know what the question is?

Explanation: The ad tantalizes the viewer with a promise of revealing a secret, yet
strategically delays the reveal to maintain interest and engagement.

Example #4 (Fitness and Health Niche):


Ever wondered why some people can eat whatever they want and not gain weight? I was as

puzzled as you until I discovered this one simple secret…

Explanation: The question posed at the start sparks curiosity in viewers who might have the
same query. The claim of having found a secret further intensifies the viewer's interest, urging
them to watch the entire ad.

Example #5 (Travel Niche):


There's a hidden gem in Europe where you can experience the beauty of five countries in just
one day. Curious?

Explanation: Travel enthusiasts would be intrigued to know about such a unique place. The
open-ended question at the end builds anticipation and ensures viewers stick around to find out
more.

Example #6 (Gourmet Cooking Niche):


What if I told you there's a spice that can transform your ordinary dishes into
gourmet-level cuisine? Hold on, because I'm about to reveal it...
Explanation: For viewers interested in cooking, the promise of unveiling a transformative
ingredient can be quite enticing. The suspense keeps viewers engaged, eager to discover the
secret spice.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Additional Insights:
By introducing a story or a question without an immediate resolution, the Open Loop Hook
taps into the viewer's inherent desire for closure. By delaying the satisfactory ending or
answer until later in the ad or even after a specific action (like clicking on a link), advertisers
can harness the power of FOMO, compelling viewers to remain engaged and more likely to
respond to the call-to-action.

The Curiosity Hook


Hook Brief Intro:
The Curiosity Hook is a powerhouse in the world of advertising, often leading with intriguing
questions or statements that pique the viewer's interest. While the primary aim is to tease and
make the viewer inquisitive, the succeeding parts of the ad cater to this curiosity with revealing
insights, ultimately guiding them towards the advertiser's objective.

Hook Goal/Purpose:
The main intent of this hook is to open the ad with an intriguing question or statement that
immediately captures the viewer’s attention, driving them to watch the entire advertisement.
Understanding the target audience and their interests is paramount to crafting a successful
curiosity hook. The effectiveness of this hook lies in its ability to keep the viewer engaged,
tantalized by the promise of an interesting revelation.

Examples of the Curiosity Hook:


Example #1 (Skin Care/Health Niche):
Can eating sweet potatoes make us look younger?

Explanation: For those keen on maintaining their youthfulness, this hook taps into their
curiosity about achieving it, making it an excellent opener for skincare or health products.

Example #2 (Weight Loss Niche):


There’s an herb that’s already sitting in your fridge that will help boost your metabolism by
500%. You just need to know where to look.
wwwwww.i.mimaarkrkeetit
ningg.c.coouursrseess

Example #4 (Travel Niche):

discovered?

Explanation: Sparks curiosity for adventure-seekers and frequent travelers by hinting at an


undiscovered destination.

Example #5 (Tech/Gadget Niche):


Ever wondered how your smartphone can actually make you smarter?

Explanation: Teases the audience with the paradoxical idea of a device, which often gets
blamed for distractions, actually benefiting cognitive abilities.

Example #6 (Literature/Reading Niche):


Did you know there's one book that even the most avid readers have missed out on?

Explanation: Piques the interest of bookworms and challenges them, making them
curious about this potentially overlooked gem.

Additional Insights:
The Curiosity Hook's potency comes from the promise of revelation. The key is to keep the
initial tease vague enough to pique interest but relevant enough to the content that follows,
ensuring the viewer feels satisfied and informed by the end of the ad.
