Brand dossier

One advertiser seen whole: how many ads it runs and for how long, what it sells, where its ads send buyers, and its strategy in your Library's terms.

A brand's dossier is one advertiser seen whole: how many ads it runs and for how long, what it sells, where its ads send buyers, and, once the brand is mapped, its strategy as avatars, angles, hooks and offers. Open one by pressing a brand's name: on an ad's card or in its panel in Explore, or on a card of the Roster in Briefs.

The business

What the brand sells, read from the store its ads send to, with the other sites it advertises into. Some stores refuse to be read; the dossier then says so, and the ads are not affected.

Where the creative goes

Each ad's place in the funnel, read from the page it sends to, the button it carries and how widely it runs: Prospecting, Consideration or nearer the order, as a share of its ads. Beside it, Under test and Longevity say how many ads are still being tested and how many have proven themselves.

What the creative is behind, and where the clicks land

The brand's products, ranked by the live ads pointed at each, then the pages its ads send buyers to, such as a Landing page or a Product page, ranked the same way. Each row gives its live ads and how long they have run.

Creative velocity and the media mix

Creative velocity charts the ads the brand launches and stops each day, from each day's reading. It needs a few days of readings before it draws. Live media mix shows the formats it bets on now, such as video or dynamic ads.

Their strategy

For a brand that has been mapped, the pieces its ads are made of, by kind: Angles, the arguments it runs; Avatars, who it speaks to; Hooks, the openings it reuses; and its offers. A line above them says how much of the brand was read, as in 18 primitives read from 15 distinct concepts across 22 ads.

Each piece shows the words that carry it, how many of the brand's ads run it and for how long, and New when it appeared since the last reading. See the creatives opens those ads in Explore, where an ad's panel lets you save the piece to Swipe or import it into your Library.
