Where ads lose people, second by second

Most ads lose their audience before the offer. Reading a watch timeline shows exactly where, and why, before you pay to run the ad.

Key takeaways

  • Look for the moment people stop, not the average watch time.
  • Ask what would have kept them watching.

An ad that loses people at second eighteen of twenty-two never shows them the offer. The average watch time hides that; one viewer’s timeline does not.

Read the stop, not the average

Where someone stops tells you what the ad asked of them that they would not give: more patience, more trust, or more claims than they wanted to hear.

Ask what would have kept them

The answer is often to move the part they care about, usually the price or the promise, earlier.
