Example #1 - Simpplr's Big Flex
Say what you will about waves and quadrants, but they still matter to many enterprise buyers.
So when Simpplr won the leader spot in all three β you know they had to let people hear it.
This ad is major validation flex that any enterprise buyer can send to their boss. And the CTA is great: "Discover Why"
ββ See Simpplrβs powerful proofβ
β
Example #2 - Clear and Simple Differentiation
This ad works for one simple reason: in a single glance, you know exactly what the company does and why theyβre different.
Spotted on the Toronto subway, itβs perfect for the channel β short, clear, and compelling.
Thereβs no confusion about why someone would choose this company for buying and selling real estate.
β
2% commission. Itβs even right in their name!
ββ Check out their website, or go ride the Toronto subway.

Example #3 - Objection Handling Hero
Objection handling is most effective when itβs proactive.
Slite does this immediately in their homepage hero.
By addressing a common concernββthere is no learning curveββthey speed up the sales process and reassure new potential buyers upfront.

Example #4 - Fun and Tactile Problem Section
This problem section is effective, entertaining, and unique. It captures the frustration marketers face when creating ads.
A video shows exactly how the product solves the issue, and the interactive box beside it offers a fun, tactile way for buyers to engage.
I havenβt seen anything like this before.
ββ Play with Foreplayβs problem section hereβ

Example #5 - A Product Page Disguised as TOFU Content
This landing page feels like a top-of-funnel piece of content, but it's actually an impressive blend of demand gen, content, and use case marketing.
Itβs packed with useful, data-backed tips on improving form performance β the exact use case being highlighted.
And all of the CTAs lead to one thing: signing up for Typeform.
