What works in a coach or consultant ad

  • The client’s problem in their words, from the first scene.
  • A named method in 3 steps.
  • Proof: testimonial, number, client logo.
  • A free action: discovery call, masterclass, guide.
  • Your face or voice to build connection.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Talking about yourself before the client.
  • Guaranteed numerical results: they put off serious clients.
  • Too many concepts: one ad, one problem, one solution.
