Creator-generated content isn’t easy, and most briefs are the reason it underperforms.
In this episode of Ad-venturous, we break down how to write creator briefs that actually perform, from setting the right intent and audience context to structuring visual hooks that work in a post-Andromeda Meta landscape.
We cover when not to use creator content, why testing net-new concepts with creators is risky, and how to brief external creators without over-scripting or wasting budget. If you want CGC that scales—and not just looks good—this episode is your playbook.
