Atlantis Resorts targeted Florida
� Goal of the campaign was to get users to their resort
� Used the same copy in 4 different pieces of creative
• COPY: “2 nights from $159, includes over $650 in
experiences free!”
• Out of the 4 themes that were created the one that
performed best was the ad that actually had that copy
in the last frame

Creative Best Practices
1. Make sure messaging is simple and to the point.
2. Use a prominent call to action!
3. Creative should be similar look and feel to your
landing page.
4. Test all ad sizes available per ad theme.
5. Test multiple ad themes if possible.
6. Begin with a minimum of three to five completely
unique ad themes, more if possible.
7. Test ad themes side by side.
8. Testing is never complete.
