分析框架

Dimension 1: Hooks

维度1:Hooks(钩子)

The first 3 seconds determine if someone watches. Identify:
Spoken hook: What's the first thing said? Visual hook: What's the first thing shown? Text hook: What on-screen text appears first?
Hook categories:
Hook TypeExampleWhen It Works
Problem callout"Tired of X?"Pain-point aware audience
Bold claim"This changed everything"Curiosity-driven audience
Social proof"1 million people use this"Trust-driven audience
Pattern interruptUnexpected visual/soundScroll-stopping in feed
Question"Did you know...?"Educational content
Before/AfterShow transformationVisual products
AuthorityExpert or creator introExpert-positioned brands
Urgency"Only 24 hours left"Retargeting/BOFU
前3秒决定了用户是否会继续观看。请识别:
口语Hook: 第一句话是什么? 视觉Hook: 最先展示的内容是什么? 文本Hook: 最先出现的屏幕文本是什么?
Hook类型:
Hook类型示例适用场景
痛点直击“受够了X吗?”对痛点有认知的受众
大胆宣称“这彻底改变了一切”好奇心驱动的受众
社交证明“100万人正在使用这款产品”重视信任的受众
模式打断意外的视觉/音效信息流中吸引停留
提问式“你知道吗……?”教育类内容
前后对比展示转变效果可视化产品
权威背书专家或创作者介绍走专家定位的品牌
紧迫感“仅剩24小时”重定向/漏斗底部(BOFU)受众

Dimension 2: Persuasion Tactics

维度2:说服策略

Identify all tactics used:
TacticWhat to Look For
Social proofTestimonials, review counts, user numbers, press logos
ScarcityLimited time, limited quantity, exclusive access
UrgencyCountdown timer, "ending soon", seasonal deadline
AuthorityExpert endorsement, certifications, awards, "as seen on"
Emotional triggerFear (missing out), aspiration, belonging, relief
Problem/SolutionPain point → product as solution
Risk reversalMoney-back guarantee, free trial, no commitment
AnchoringOriginal price shown before discount
ReciprocityFree value given before the ask
SpecificityExact numbers ("saves 3.7 hours/week" vs "saves time")
识别所有使用的策略:
策略观察要点
Social proof(社交证明)客户证言、评价数量、用户规模、媒体报道标识
Scarcity(稀缺性)限时、限量、专属权限
Urgency(紧迫感)倒计时、“即将结束”、季节性截止日期
Authority(权威背书)专家推荐、认证、奖项、“曾亮相于”
Emotional trigger(情感触发)恐惧(错失机会)、渴望、归属感、解脱
Problem/Solution(问题/解决方案)提出痛点 → 产品作为解决方案
Risk reversal(风险逆转)退款保证、免费试用、无承诺要求
Anchoring(锚定效应)折扣前先展示原价
Reciprocity(互惠原则)先提供免费价值再提出请求
Specificity(具体化)精确数字(如“每周节省3.7小时”而非“节省时间”)

Dimension 3: Structure & Pacing

维度3:结构与节奏

Map the ad's timeline:
[0-3s]  Hook / Pattern interrupt
[3-10s] Problem identification
[10-20s] Solution introduction
[20-30s] Benefits + proof
[30-45s] Social proof / testimonials
[45-55s] Offer details
[55-60s] CTA
Note: Not all ads follow this structure. Document what actually happens.
梳理广告时间线:
[0-3s]  Hook / Pattern interrupt
[3-10s] Problem identification
[10-20s] Solution introduction
[20-30s] Benefits + proof
[30-45s] Social proof / testimonials
[45-55s] Offer details
[55-60s] CTA
注意:并非所有广告都遵循此结构,请记录实际内容。

Dimension 4: Target Audience

维度4:目标受众

Infer the target audience from:
  • Demographics: Age, gender, location signals in the creative
  • Psychographics: Values, lifestyle, interests shown
  • Awareness level: Unaware → Problem-aware → Solution-aware → Product-aware → Most-aware
  • Funnel position: Cold traffic (awareness) vs. warm (retargeting) vs. hot (conversion)
从以下维度推断目标受众:
  • 人口统计特征: 创意中体现的年龄、性别、地域信号
  • 心理特征: 展现的价值观、生活方式、兴趣爱好
  • 认知阶段: 未知 → 痛点认知 → 解决方案认知 → 产品认知 → 深度认知
  • 漏斗位置: 冷流量(认知层) vs. 暖流量(重定向) vs. 热流量(转化层)

Important Notes

重要说明

  • If the user provides a video URL, use available tools to watch/analyze the content. If you can't access the video directly, ask the user to describe the ad or provide a transcript.
  • Focus on what's replicable and actionable, not just descriptive.
  • Good ad analysis identifies WHY something works, not just WHAT happens.
  • Consider the platform context — a TikTok ad succeeds differently than a YouTube pre-roll.
  • Meta Ad Library (facebook.com/ads/library) is free and public — use it to find competitor ads.
  • 若用户提供视频URL,请使用可用工具观看并分析内容。若无法直接访问视频,请要求用户描述广告内容或提供脚本。
  • 重点关注可复制、可落地的内容,而非仅做描述性分析。
  • 优质的广告分析需明确“为什么有效”,而非仅说明“发生了什么”。
  • 需考虑平台特性——TikTok广告的成功逻辑与YouTube前贴片广告不同。
  • Meta广告库(facebook.com/ads/library)是免费公开资源——可用于查找竞品广告。
