Don't just repurpose viral organic content for lower-funnel ads. Treat it as a validated consumer insight. This single piece of content should serve as the creative brief for everything from high-production brand videos and experiential events to outdoor advertising campaigns.
Instead of viewing organic social media as just a top-of-funnel tool, Vaynerchuk positions it as the central engine for all marketing. He advises brands to create high volumes of organic content, identify what resonates based on views, and then use that winning creative as the foundation for paid ads, TV commercials, and even experiential events.
When an organic post achieves significant viral reach, it has proven its creative resonance. Repurpose that exact video as a paid ad, adding a subtle call-to-action. It will often outperform meticulously tested performance creative because its engagement is authentic and pre-validated by the algorithm.
Stop guessing in boardrooms. Test creative concepts as organic social posts first. The platform's AI algorithm will reveal true audience relevance. Only use paid media to amplify the content that has already proven to over-index organically, ensuring ad dollars support winning ideas.
Use organic social as a mid-funnel testing ground. When a post wildly overperforms, don't just celebrate the viral moment. Repurpose that proven creative for lower-funnel performance ads and upper-funnel brand campaigns to maximize its impact across the entire funnel.
Don't guess what ads will work. Monitor organic social media for posts that get disproportionately high engagement. These posts have already proven resonance with your audience. Turn these validated content pieces directly into paid ads for a higher probability of success and better ROI.
Stop guessing on creative in boardrooms. Test all content organically first and only amplify what has already demonstrated relevance with an audience, thereby eliminating wasted ad spend and de-risking media budgets.
Instead of using social media insights to create a new, expensive TV commercial, simply repurpose the raw, organically successful video and run it as the ad, complete with phone-native formatting.
Don't waste money testing ad creative from scratch. First, post content organically across platforms. When a piece performs exceptionally well, use that as a clear signal to put paid advertising spend behind it. The algorithm and audience have already validated its appeal, de-risking your ad budget.
The best way to test ad creative isn't through paid A/B tests. Instead, post content organically. Pieces that achieve unusually high viewership have been validated by the interest-based algorithm and will outperform guessed-upon creative in paid campaigns.
The traditional "big idea" campaign model is broken. A modern approach starts in the mid-funnel with organic social content. Content that resonates with the algorithm and audience on merit then becomes the brief for both lower-funnel performance ads and upper-funnel brand campaigns, de-risking the entire process.
