Create a display ad experience

This tutorial demonstrates how to generate branded display ad experiences using GenStudio for Performance Marketing Create (paintbrush icon in the left navigation area).

To design a compelling display ad experience, it is recommended that you add guidelines to GenStudio for Performance Marketing and review the basics of writing prompts before you begin.

Choose a template

To create a display ad experience, use an available template to provide the framework for your content. See Best practices for templates for information about supported display ad dimensions.

To choose a display ad template:

  1. In Create, click Display ads in the “What do you want to create today?†section.

  2. Use the search option, adjacent to Filter, to find a specific display ad template.

  3. In the Select template view, click on a display ad template.

  4. Click Use.

    The Canvas, which serves as the central hub for content creation, is displayed.

Add parameters

Adding guidelines and assets in Parameters in the prompt drawer supercharges the content generation process and is an integral preparatory step for generating a display ad experience.

To add parameters and assets:

  1. Click the Parameters icon to expand the prompt drawer.

  2. In the Parameters section, select guidelines—Brands, Personas, and Products—to inform content creation.

    If there are no brands, personas, or products available from these menus, add guidelines to your GenStudio for Performance Marketing.

  3. To add content to be used in the experience and to influence content generation:

    • Click Select from Content to select assets (images) from your Content repository, filter and select one or more images.

      To use assets from a connected AEM Assets Content Hub repository, choose a repository from the Location dropdown menu. Filter and select one or more images.

    • Or, drag and drop assets into the Select from Content section to upload one or more new assets.

  4. Click Use.

When you are finished adding parameters, collapse the prompt drawer by clicking the Parameters icon again.

Enter a prompt

After guidelines are selected, craft a prompt using natural language to start generating content for your new display ad experience. To enhance the quality of the generated display ad experiences, it is crucial to craft detailed and descriptive prompts.

Enter a prompt {width="650" modal="regular"}

See Write effective prompts to learn more about writing prompts.

To enter a prompt:

  1. Enter a prompt in the “Describe the experiences you want to generate†prompt box.
  2. Click Generate.

By default, four variations—fueled by the prompt, guidelines, and content you added—are generated and shown in the Canvas.

Revise generated display ads

Before selecting what to send for approval or publishing to Content you can edit display ad sections and text fields, or delete a generated variant.

To revise generated variants:

  • To edit the display ad draft name, click into the Untitled Draft title at the top of the Canvas and enter a new title.
  • To manually edit a display ad, double-click into any of the display ad sections or fields (such as the subject line, header, or body copy) and edit as needed.
  • To regenerate a section of a variant, click an editable text field and use the available options to rephrase, shorten, lengthen, or generate new text.
  • To change the size and aspect ratio of the ad, click the Resize button (box with a button icon on the left side of the Canvas) and select a new size and aspect ratio to apply to all variants. The variants are duplicated and resized.
  • To crop or reposition images, hover over the image, click the crop icon that appears, and adjust the image size and placement. Click Apply.

Submit generation feedback

To submit feedback about the quality of the generation output, click the options icon (three dots) and select Good output or Poor output.

Verify brand alignment

To optimize the generated ads and ensure strict adherence to brand identity, leverage the power of the Brand validation panel, which displays comprehensive brand validation details and illuminates improvement areas.

To verify brand alignment:

  1. Click the Brand validation icon in top menu bar to open the Brand validation panel. You can see details of the fragments and guidelines that need improvement.

  2. Toggle through each ad to see how you can improve the generated content to be more brand-aligned.

  3. Manually revise ads to ensure your emails are closely aligned with your brand.

See Brand validation.

Get reviews and approvals

Use the Approvals panel, accessible on the top menu bar of the Canvas, to obtain reviews, track review comments, and get approvals from stakeholders.

To obtain reviews and approvals:

  1. Launch an approval request to solicit an approval of drafted email experiences.
  2. Remove or add reviewers during the review process.
  3. Access the content for review and view the requests for revision.
  4. Edit the drafts per review comments and publish your display ad experiences.

See Reviews and approvals.

Publish and export experience

To make the generated display ads available for current and future use, publish it to Content and export it for use in your marketing campaigns.

  1. To publish your new display ad experience(s), click Publish in the top toolbar, or within the approvals flow.

    1. Select Campaigns and add More details if desired.

    2. Click Publish.

      Publish a display ad {width="450" modal="regular"}

  2. To export your new display ad experience(s), click Export in the top toolbar.

    1. Select the format—HTML and images, PNG, or JPG—and click Export.

      Exported HTML should be placed within a predefined web property, like a template or div container. Without these set dimensions, images may appear distorted when viewed independently.
