How to use these angles

Pick one angle per batch, not one per ad. Read its desire and objection first: those two lines decide the script, the static headline and the landing page message. Use the stage to choose who sees it, then take opening lines from the ED treatment hooks page and check the copy on the ad compliance page before it runs.

An angle is worth a batch when its objection is one your audience actually raises. Read the objection line out loud: if your support inbox, intake answers or comments already contain it, the angle has a real job. If not, start with a different angle and keep this one for later.

Questions

What is an ad angle?

The reason a person should care, written down before any ad is made: the desire, the objection that stops them, the line that explains how the service works, and a hook. Each angle on this page lists all four.

How is a ED treatment angle tested?

In one batch: the angle is made into 10 ads, 5 videos in 5 formats and 5 statics, and tested in one ad set, so the result says something about the angle and not just one ad.

Can an ad ask the viewer if they have a condition?

No. Meta's Personal Attributes policy says ads must not assert or imply personal attributes, including physical or mental health and medical conditions. Meta rejects "Do you have diabetes?" and suggests "you" language without a personal attribute instead.

Can an opening line promise a result by a date?

Not without qualifiers. Meta's Health and Wellness policy bars promises of specific outcomes within a set timeframe without disclaimers or qualifiers.
