PUBLIC AD RESEARCH · Workflow idea

Understand how public image ads present their offers.

Review a selected advertiser’s public image ads and organize useful observations about the visuals, opening hooks, offers, calls to action, and creative themes. Keep each observation linked to its source, and have a researcher check the original ad and the collection’s permitted use before relying on or sharing the findings.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps marketing and research teams compare public advertising creative without manually organizing every image and observation.

  1. Set the advertiser and research purpose

    Choose a public advertiser page, the question the team is exploring, and the ad characteristics that matter.

  2. Select relevant image ads

    Review available ads against the stated criteria, such as how long they have been running or their reported reach, and leave unrelated items out.

  3. Organize creative observations

    Describe the visual, main offer, opening hook, call to action, and notable persuasion themes without presenting interpretation as fact.

  4. Keep images and findings connected to sources

    Preserve references to the original ads and clearly identify details that are incomplete or uncertain.

  5. Verify and approve the research brief

    Have a researcher check observations, source permissions, and the exact brief and recipients before sharing or using the findings.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A structured review of selected ads, with image references, creative observations, and source context ready for verification.

The handoff

A structured review of selected ads, with image references, creative observations, and source context ready for verification.

Keep in mind

Public ads can contain copyrighted creative and information about people, and an interpretation may miss important context. Respect source access and reuse terms, keep only details needed for the research purpose, verify observations against the original ads, and require a person to approve the exact brief and audience before sharing it.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define permitted sources and collection scope

Choose public pages and limits that fit the research purpose, and confirm that the planned access and use are allowed.

Choose the creative details to compare

Set useful fields for visual descriptions, offers, calls to action, duration, and other research questions.

Set privacy and retention boundaries

Avoid unnecessary personal details, restrict access to research materials, and decide when saved images and findings should be removed.

Assign research and sharing reviewers

Name who verifies observations and who approves the finished content and audience before any report is sent.
