Growth Hack #1 – Emoji CTAs Increase Facebook Ad Engagement +386%:

Aaron Zakowski ran a test to see how he could get more people to click ‘play’ on his Facebook video ads.

His solution?

Add some emojis of speakers to get people to click for sound.

Result: The ad with the emoji CTA had 1.7% of viewers click the play button for sound while the version without it only had 0.35% of people click the play button.

That’s an improvement of 386% for the version with the emoji CTA.
