🚨 5 Static Ads That Stop the Scroll (and Sell)

These real-world examples turn passive scrollers into buyers - here’s how to copy them.

Hey friend,

Static ads don’t have to be background noise.

Done right, they stop the scroll, tell a story, and sell in under 3 seconds.

Here are 5 that do it brilliantly, and what you can steal from each one 👇

1. Quasi Bio Collagen Mask

đź§  Principle: Stack the proof

This ad turns a beauty cliché (“Say goodbye to wrinkles”) into something specific and believable with three stacked proof points:

âś… 3X more effective than Amazon dupes
âś… 243 Dalton Marine collagen particles for deep penetration
âś… 6X Galactomyces to reduce fine lines

Why it works:

It doesn’t just promise - it quantifies.

Every claim feels measurable and confident, so the viewer believes it’s more than just marketing fluff.

2. Dose - For Your Liver

đź§  Principle: Let your customer be the headline

Instead of brand-led copy, Dose leads with a direct quote from a 4-month customer:

"My doctor asked how I did it!"

Why it works:

It’s social proof with stakes. The mention of “liver enzyme levels” makes it feel credible and health-focused.

The raised-hands emoji adds personality without distracting from the benefit.

3. Cuts Clothing

đź§  Principle: Social proof + offer in one frame

Top banner: the deal (“As low as $17 per shirt”)

Middle: a 5-star review

Bottom: a clean, flattering lifestyle shot.

Why it works:

The viewer immediately knows price, quality rating, and style in a single glance. No wasted real estate - every part of the frame earns its keep.

4. Huel Black Edition

đź§  Principle: Short, sharp, and behaviour-focused

“Skipping breakfast? Stop that.”

One question, one command - with the product visually pouring into frame.

Why it works:

It reframes the product as a solution to a bad habit, not just another protein shake.

The black background makes the chocolate flow pop, adding appetite appeal and contrast.

5. Gardencup

đź§  Principle: Speak like a Post-It note

“Hate planning meals? Try this →”

The handwritten sticky note feels casual, human, and instantly relatable - like a friend’s recommendation.

Why it works:

It strips away the “ad” feeling. The relaxed tone and real-world prop make it feel approachable, while the product is framed as the obvious solution.

That’s a wrap for this edition.

👉 Borrow these.
👉 Adapt them to your market.
👉 Test relentlessly.

Because in a busy feed, it’s not just about being there.

It’s about being remembered.
