1. Your Ad Design Doesn’t Stop the Scroll
Social media feeds are noisy. If your ad doesn’t grab attention in the first 2–3 seconds, people scroll past without a second thought.
Fix:
Use high-contrast colors that stand out from the platform’s background
Make sure your main message is visible without clicking “See More”
Use bold, mobile-friendly fonts
💡 Want to skip the design struggle? Our Ultimate Ad Collection includes 3,000+ professionally designed Canva templates built to stop the scroll.
2. Your Message Isn’t Clear
If your audience has to figure out what you’re selling, they won’t bother.
Fix:
Use short, benefit-driven headlines (e.g., “Launch Winning Ads in Minutes”)
Make your offer and price visible in the ad image or first sentence
Avoid jargon — keep it simple and relatable
3. Your Ads Don’t Match the Placement
A feed ad that looks great might look terrible in Stories or Reels if it’s the wrong size or format.
Fix:
Create ad designs for each placement (Feed, Stories, Reels)
Follow Meta’s recommended ad sizes for best quality (see our Meta Ad Sizes 2025 Guide)
Test different formats to see which gets the best engagement
4. You’re Not Testing Enough Variations
Running just one version of your ad is like putting all your eggs in one basket.
Fix:
Test at least 2–3 variations at a time
Change one element per variation (headline, image, CTA)
Keep the winner running and replace the others with new tests
5. Your Ads Look Amateur
This one’s harsh — but true. Low-quality design signals low-quality product.
Fix:
Use professionally designed templates so your ads look polished
Keep a consistent brand style across all campaigns
Use high-resolution images and avoid pixelation
