Hampton Ad — "I sold my company to HubSpot… But I felt completely alone"
Why it works
Parr's own story as the hook: The Hustle sold to HubSpot, and he felt alone anyway. The creative is a screenshot of an old tweet of his, dated "Jun 18", with its engagement counts still on it: "Running a company is lonely. I've launched a private group for CEOs and founders… All members are vetted. Interested?" In this ad the core group has "eight peers". Other Hampton ads say seven, nine or ten.
