Sparking Glimmers in ads instead of Triggers
Jared Oliva shares valuable insights into his approach to marketing and selling his brand Moss Amigos. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the psychology of buyers and tailoring advertising strategies to resonate with specific target audiences.

He highlights the significance of creating a sense of calm or soothing elements in advertisements to capture attention without overwhelming the viewer. He cites examples from his own ad campaigns, featuring visuals of aventurine stones and cozy settings, all designed to evoke positive emotions.
Furthermore, Oliva underscores the role of setting, composition, and tone in crafting effective ads.The design composition is advised to be dynamic but not overwhelming, ensuring the product remains in the forefront.
