[A Thread]👇👇
Have once shared a thread on how I spy & get inspirations from Facebook ads library. 👉 https://bit.ly/3lkD1yI 

Then I shared examples to illustrate 5 creative guidelines for attention-grabbing ads. In this thread I'd like to continue a little further down the same path.
By sharing a handful of tactics to make images stand out more in the context of the Facebook feed. So that users don't scroll past it mindlessly, but stop their thumb 👍
1. 🎯 Change to grayscale

Most of the content that's shared on Facebook, is colourful. So changing your creative to grayscale can make it stand out from it's surrounding.
2. 🎯 Increase vividness

A simple trick to make images stand out more, is to increase the vividness. Either by increasing the exposure or saturation, or both.

You can do this with free tools, like: http://Pixlr.com  or http://Photopea.com 
3. 🎯 Popart

A very popular ad type right now is the colourful "popart" style.

You can get these images from vector-stock websites and tweak the image with a vector editing tool like  http://Vectr.com  or  http://Vecteezy.com 
4. 🎯 Add some social proof

People are social creatures that value the opinions of others.

Your ad images are a great way to add social proof, by showing features, reviews or aggregated satisfaction ratings.

Make sure that your image stays within the 20% text rule.
5. 🎯 Benefit borders

Like reviews and satisfaction scores, you can add extra reasons to buy to your ad's creative.

I don't know if there's a name for it, but I like to call it "benefit borders" because they highlight additional benefits.
🎯 Add subtle movement

Movement grabs the attention, even it's very subtle. Technically it's not an image anymore when you add movement, but a "cinematograph".

You can easily hire someone to get something of such done on http://Fiverr.com
