Information flow ads with high click-through rates cannot do without these 3 points!

With limited text and pictures, how to attract users' attention and stimulate their desire to click is a question that many advertisers are thinking about. In other words, if the advertiser's information is only exposed but not clicked, it can be said that it is not a successful marketing campaign.

Today we will take Baidu information flow as an example, how can we find the right entry point from advertising? How to come up with a click-worthy title? How to choose materials to be more attractive? Let’s discuss how creativity affects advertising conversion from three perspectives.

1. Find an entry point

People often say: Finding the right direction is half the battle. The advantage of mobile marketing is that it can accurately deliver information to the corresponding audience, and the "content" carried by this "information" also needs to be refined, accurate and creative enough.

The creativity of information flow advertising can start from nine points: product functions, user emotions, consumption scenarios, celebrity endorsements, product prices, usage trends, and social hot spots , and directly hit the user pain points.

Product function: "Product attributes are fundamental", it's really new and light, how good it is...

User emotions: "Who is the buyer?", family, friendship, love, parents, children, classmates...

Consumer groups: "distinct identity and sense of belonging", exclusive to those born after 1995, a must-have for fashionable white-collar workers, and the choice of the working class...

Consumption opportunities: “Not because we don’t need it, but because we didn’t think of it”, family reunion, travel, New Year’s Eve, year-end self-reward…

Consumption scenarios: "Important things should be said three times", must-haves for business trips, destination features, mobile phone performance...

Celebrity endorsements: "Fan economy has power", TFboys, Yangyang, Luhan...

Product price: "People want not only cheapness but also bargains", discounts, limited time, red envelopes, special offers, coupons...

Usage trends: "The herd mentality makes everyone worry about being left behind", rankings, top ten, hot products...

Social hot spots: "Popularity has its own value", my brother is awesome, Lanshou Xianggu, small goals...
