What you get
Ads need more than one cut. The platforms show different shapes in different places, and the first seconds decide whether anyone keeps watching, so it pays to test several openings. Launch + Ads gives you three openings, each laid out for landscape, vertical and square, which makes nine ad files ready to upload.
The 60 second demo is for the people the ads bring in: it walks through the core workflow for prospects who want to see more before a call. Our guide to aspect ratios for product launches explains which shape goes where on LinkedIn and Meta.
How it works
- Brief. Tell us who the ads are for, where they will run and the one thing viewers should remember.
- Storyboard. One plan covers the launch film, the openings and the demo. Approve it or ask for changes.
- Preview. Within 48 hours of approval, you watch the full package on a private, watermarked preview link.
- Payment and files. Pay by bank transfer when you are happy, and we send every file, the copy and the posting plan.
Testing the openings
Run the three openings side by side with the same audience and budget, then move the money to the one that keeps people watching and clicking. Muted autoplay is common in feeds, so every cut has captions burned in. Our note on captions for muted product videos covers why.
Not running ads yet? Launch Day covers the launch itself for less, and you can upgrade within 30 days by paying only the difference.
When Launch + Ads is not the right fit
If you have no ad budget yet, the openings will sit unused, so start with Launch Day and upgrade later. Launch + Ads is also not an ad management service: we do not set up campaigns, audiences or bids. It gives your team, or whoever runs your ads, tested creative in every shape so they can launch the campaign the same week.
Frequently asked questions
Which ad platforms are the files ready for?
The cuts are made in 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1, the shapes Meta and LinkedIn ads use, and they also work on X and YouTube. Each shape is laid out for its frame rather than cropped from another.
Do you run the ads for me?
No. We make the ad films, the copy and a launch-day posting plan. You or your team upload them and manage the budget in your own ad accounts.
What does "your choice of voice" mean?
You pick the narrator voice from our options, for example a different accent or tone, instead of us choosing the one that fits the storyboard best.
How long does Launch + Ads take?
The preview is ready within 48 hours of approving the storyboard, because there are more pieces to make than in the other packages. Revisions are made on the same preview link.
