Opting out of ad copy can be risky. But when it works, it works. Grummies' weird clown gif is just colorful, unexpected, and creepy enough (depending on your past trauma) to stop your scroll.

Snug

Ah, another stop motion ad. But what's impressive here is that it makes you believe moving a sofa around doesn't have to be as difficult as Ross and Chandler make it look. PIVOT! Plus, it's crammed with USPs that dance around shots of the product in action. We'll just say it: we want a sofa in a box.
