Who the set is for

  • Shoppers who have already tried other bedtime routines and want to know why this one is different.
  • Keto and fasting followers who think about minerals as part of their bedtime routine.

What she wants to know

  • I fall asleep fine. Why do I keep waking at 2 a.m.?
  • I’ve tried other bedtime fixes. What makes this one different?
  • Will it mix easily enough to take every night?
  • Does it fit a keto or fasting routine?

The angle behind each ad

Ad 01 / Native post-it · Problem aware

The post-it

A post-it on the bathroom mirror reads “2:47 AM. Again.” The specific time names the wake-up she remembers each morning, and the note doubles as tonight’s plan: one scoop, warm water, 30 minutes before bed.

Ad 03 / Bold problem · Problem aware

You fall asleep fine

A bedside clock at 2:13 and one bold line separate falling asleep from 2 a.m. waking. A shopper who already falls asleep easily sees her actual problem named.

Ad 05 / Lifestyle · Product aware

The honest warning

The ad admits the powder doesn’t mix well in cold water, then turns warm water into a 9 p.m. ritual. Owning the objection first makes the rest of the ad easier to trust.

Ad 09 / Typographic quote · Product aware

In his own words

Dr. Berg’s existing hook, “Take one scoop of this magnesium powder every single night before you go to bed,” set as a typographic quote above the tub and a full scoop.

Ad 10 / Bold callout · New audience

Keto and fasting

A bold callout speaks to keto and fasting followers, Dr. Berg’s core audience, and places magnesium in a low-carb bedtime mineral routine.
