Static Ads Expert | Meta Ads | Facebooks Ads Graphic Designer

The static ads I've created for a UK supplement brand have spent over £1M on Meta. Meta doesn’t just spend seven figures on static ads that don't convert. I'm a static ads specialist with 10+ years of design experience, and I've designed thousands of statics for 7 to 9 figure DTC brands. Ads that look great are easy for me. But ads that turn cold traffic into buyers are what I actually specialise in. 𝗠𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧𝗦: 📈 Over $3M in revenue generated for my clients 📈 Thousands of static ads designed for 7 to 9 figure DTC brands 📈 Clients include Ankhway, Fifth Ray, Infinity Hoop, Solawave, Perk, Everstride, sven’s island 📈 10+ years of design experience 📈 Worked with brands spending $100k to $1M/month on Meta 📈 Deep experience in health, wellness, supplements, skincare, beauty, fitness and fashion 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗪𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗗𝗢 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗬𝗢𝗨: ❌ Pretty ads that don't sell - Most designers make ads that win compliments, not customers. Every static I design starts from direct response principles and creative strategy. The design exists to make the message land. ❌ Template designs - Your brand doesn't need the same static ad layout as the other 500 brands your customer scrolled past today. I design from scratch around your brand and your ideal avatar. ❌ AI slop - I use AI image gen daily (ChatGPT Image Gen 2 in Higgsfield), but as a tool to move fast and create assets that would otherwise need a photoshoot or be designed from scratch. It’s never used to one-shot your static ads. All ads are finalised and polished in Figma where I add text and additional visual elements. ❌ Disappearing mid-project - You'll always know where your ads are up to, and you'll never chase me for a reply. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗗𝗢 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗬𝗢𝗨: ✅ Static Ad Audits - Static ads not performing or getting any spend on meta? I'll tear down your current static ads and give you a gameplan for exactly what to fix and test next. You can grab a full static ads audit in my project catalog right now. ✅ Custom Static Ad Design - Send me your brief and I'll design high-converting static ads for Meta, with 3 variations, in every ratio for Meta and Figma source files included. ✅ Creative Strategy & Ad Concepts - This is where I add the most value. Not only am I a designer, but I’m a senior creative strategist. I go through Reddit threads, reviews, Facebook groups ad comments etc to find untapped angles and avatars your competitors haven't discovered using my own creative strategy framework, then turn them into concepts ready to test. ✅ Static Ad Copy & Headlines - Strong grounding in direct response copywriting, so your headlines stop the scroll and resonate with your ideal customer and your ads close on the click. ✅ Creative Testing Strategy - Not sure what to test next? I'll build you a roadmap of angles, formats and variations for your next 30 days of Meta creative. ✅ Static Ads Strategy Consultation - 30 minutes with me and you'll know exactly why your static ads aren’t converting and what to do about it.

Josh __ 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗤𝗨𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗟𝗬 𝗔𝗦𝗞𝗘𝗗 𝗤𝗨𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦: Do you only do one-off projects? I'm open to both one-off projects and longer-term contracts. Most clients start with one batch and stay on ongoing. What do the ads look like? Check my portfolio below. Do you write the copy? Depends on the service. My catalog design project is executed from your brief. If you want me to develop the concepts and write the copy, that's my creative strategy service, just message me. How fast is delivery? Depends on scope, but I turn most static projects around within days, not weeks. Do I get the source files? Yes, you get the Figma source files
