The ad

Smalls ad creative

My notoriously picky cats can’t get enough of this food. Even when I could find food they liked, they never even finished a serving. Now they lick the plate clean.

77/ 100

Funnel score

8-point CRO breakdown

How well the landing page behind the ad is built to convert, scored across 8 factors: offer, copy, speed, trust, mobile, message-match, CTA, and social proof.

This page excels at building trust through abundant social proof (2000+ verified reviews, 88% health improvement stat, New York magazine endorsement, detailed customer testimonial with 5 stars) and clearly communicates the core offer (50% off + free treats for life). The headline is emotionally resonant and the product benefits are well-articulated through multiple angles (health, digestion, coat quality, hydration). However, the page suffers from poor mobile optimization with cramped layouts and small text in several sections, and the page speed is critically slow (40/100), which will hurt conversion on mobile devices. The CTA buttons are prominent and repeated throughout, but the messaging around "raw without the risks" could be more directly tied to the ad's emphasis on picky cats finishing their plates.

Full breakdown

Call to action

9/10

Multiple prominent yellow 'START NOW' buttons throughout the page with high contrast and clear visibility; also includes secondary CTA 'TRY OUR SAMPLER' for lower commitment.

What works
  • Large, high-contrast yellow buttons with black text (START NOW) repeated 5+ times
  • Secondary CTA option 'TRY OUR SAMPLER' provides lower-friction entry point
  • CTAs positioned after benefit sections to capture interest at multiple scroll points

Page speed

4/10

PageSpeed score of 40/100 is critically slow, indicating significant performance issues that will hurt mobile conversion rates and user experience.

What hurts
  • PageSpeed score of 40/100 indicates poor performance
  • Multiple high-resolution images throughout page likely contributing to slow load
  • Slow load times will increase bounce rate, especially on mobile

Trust signals

9/10

Page builds strong trust through verified reviews, media endorsements, customer testimonials, money-back guarantee, and transparency about sourcing (USDA certified facilities in New Jersey and Ohio).

What works
  • 2000+ verified 5-star reviews on Trustpilot with explicit trust signal
  • New York magazine endorsement with specific quote and date
  • 100% Money-back guarantee mentioned multiple times throughout page

Mobile experience

4/10

Mobile optimization is poor with cramped layouts, small text in several sections, and navigation elements that appear difficult to interact with on small screens.

What works
  • Yellow CTA buttons are large enough to tap on mobile
  • Hero image with cat and food is visually compelling on any screen size
What hurts
  • Text in benefit grid (4 items with icons) appears cramped and small on mobile
  • Customer testimonial section has small text that would be hard to read on phone
  • Footer navigation with many links appears cluttered for mobile viewing

Headline

8/10

The headline 'The benefits of raw without the risks' is compelling and emotionally resonant, though it doesn't directly address the picky-eater angle from the ad.

What works
  • Emotionally engaging with emoji (😻 🥩) that appeals to cat lovers
  • Positions product as solving a key concern (raw food safety)
  • Clear value proposition in simple language
What hurts
  • Doesn't address the 'picky cats' angle that the ad emphasizes
  • Could be more specific about the product (fresh cat food) in the headline itself

Social proof

9/10

Page features multiple strong social proof elements: 2000+ verified 5-star Trustpilot reviews, 88% health improvement statistic, New York magazine endorsement, detailed customer testimonial with photo and 5-star rating.

What works
  • 2000+ verified 5-star reviews on Trustpilot displayed prominently below hero image
  • 88% of customers report health improvements stat with visual proof (78% shinier fur example)
  • New York magazine quote 'The Best Cat Food, According to Veterinarians' with date (06.20.23)

Message match

6/10

The ad emphasizes picky cats finishing their plates, but the page focuses more on health benefits, raw food safety, and general product quality rather than palatability for selective eaters.

What works
  • Page does mention 'Perfect for even the pickiest of the litter' in one section
  • Customer testimonial mentions cat being 'VERY enthusiastic about Smalls'
  • Product quality and freshness messaging aligns with 'human-grade' claim in ad
What hurts
  • Main headline doesn't address picky-eater angle that ad emphasizes
  • Primary focus is on health/safety benefits rather than taste/palatability
  • Limited emphasis on cats actually finishing their food (the core ad claim)

Offer clarity

9/10

The offer is stated clearly at the top (50% Off + Free Treats for Life) and repeated multiple times throughout the page with checkmarks highlighting key benefits.

What works
  • Limited-time offer banner at top with specific discount (50% Off + Free Treats for Life)
  • Offer repeated with checkmarks: 50% off first order, free shipping, money-back guarantee
  • Multiple CTAs reinforce the same offer throughout the page
