3 reasons your paid social ads aren't converting (and how to fix them) | MarTech
Briefly

Paid social media ads often fail due to fixable mistakes such as weak creative, poor audience targeting, and ineffective landing pages. In the fast-paced attention economy of 2025, ads must grab attention within seconds to compete against numerous distractions. To improve ad performance, creators should produce authentic content, create strong opening hooks, and test various ad formats and aspect ratios. Making the ad feel native and engaging audiences effectively can enhance click-through rates and conversions, ensuring budget efficiency.
