Best Practices
Writing Effective Primary Texts
✅ Do:
- Start with a hook or benefit
- Include a clear call-to-action
- Mention offers or discounts
- Keep it conversational
- Use 2-3 sentences
❌ Don't:
- Write long paragraphs (150-200 characters ideal)
- Use excessive punctuation!!!
- Make claims you can't back up
- Forget the call-to-action
Example - Good Primary Text:
"Tired of spending hours on Facebook Ads? Lix.so lets you create complete campaigns in 3 minutes. Upload your creatives in bulk, choose a template, and launch. Try it free today!"
Writing Effective Headlines
✅ Do:
- Keep it short (5-10 words max)
- Include the main benefit
- Create urgency or curiosity
- Use numbers when possible
❌ Don't:
- Be vague ("Click here")
- Use clickbait without value
- Exceed character limits (40 chars recommended)
Example - Good Headlines:
1. "Create FB Ads in 3 Minutes"
2. "Save 95% of Your Time"
3. "Batch Upload 100 Creatives"
4. "Templates You'll Reuse Forever"
Naming Convention
Use clear, descriptive template names:
✅ Good Examples:

❌ Bad Examples:
- "Template 1"
- "Test"
- "Copy"
Advanced: Dynamic Content
