I hear some version of this on almost every new client call. We walk them through the work — the Pokémon Monopoly spot, the Stranger Things Social Ad, the Furby Reese's social video. The production quality is obvious. The creative is tight. And then they say it: "And these performed well on social? Because usually, polished videos don't work for us on social media." Every time I hear that, I have the same thought: it's not the polish that's failing you. It's the strategy.
