Slideshow ad
A slideshow ad is a short-form post built from a sequence of static frames (often an educational listicle) rather than filmed video. It doesn't feel like an ad, is cheap to produce at volume, and is a strong complement to talking-head UGC for top-of-funnel.
Slideshows trade the persuasive power of a face-led demo for shareable, content-first reach and very low production cost. Many performance teams run both: hook+demo UGC to convert, educational slideshows to fill the top of the funnel.
