Carpe’s video ad: “When the CEO Rages, Your Deodorant Better Not Quit”

Running 131 daysFacebook and InstagramWinner

How it opens

“What is he doing over there?”

Angle: Offer

Why it works

It wraps a hard discount in a casual, humorous, unscripted-feeling conversation, so the offer reads as insider news instead of a sales pitch. The sauna setting works as a real-life stress test for the product claim, and the scent check makes the proof tangible. The data shows it has run 131 days and is still active on 5 ads, with a win score of 91, which suggests the offer-plus-humor formula keeps performing.

Who it speaks to: Men and heat-prone sweaters who have never tried Carpe, including people with heavy sweating or hyperhidrosis, and bargain-minded shoppers who might otherwise buy on Amazon.

How it’s built
  1. Hook: A scroll-stopping headline about a CEO raging in a sauna, paired with a candid, mid-argument opening in the video.
  2. Offer reveal: Banter about the 56% intro offer still running, with four premium fragrances, three free gifts and free shipping.
  3. Demo: A scent test after the steam sauna, 'smell how it's holding up', to show it lasts through heat.
  4. Objection handling: A warning not to buy on Amazon because of the price gap, which steers people to the official offer.
  5. Benefits: 100 hours of sweat and odor control, triple-layer protection that controls sweat, kills odor bacteria and nourishes skin.
  6. Proof: Post text cites 3.2 million customers, 40,000+ five-star reviews, dermatologist tested and cruelty-free.
  7. CTA: 'Stay dry out there' in the video and 'Shop now' with the offer link in the post.
What to borrow
  • Frame an offer as a story or a running joke (the team can't believe it's still on) so urgency and value feel earned, not pushy.
  • Pair a bold, specific scenario in the headline with a casual opening line in the video to stop the scroll and lower ad skepticism.
  • Prove the claim through a simple in-context demo, like a sauna and a smell test, rather than only stating it.
  • Pre-empt a price objection, such as cheaper third-party sellers, by steering buyers to the official offer.
Its words

When the CEO Rages, Your Deodorant Better Not Quit

The sauna is where every deodorant goes to die. 100 degrees of heat, steam that penetrates everything, and nowhere to hide. A CEO in a rage state amplifies that pressure tenfold. Your standard antiperspirant wasn't built for this kind of stress-sweat and sustained heat exposure. Carpe's Underarm Lotion works differently. It stops sweat at the source with a clinically tested formula that holds for 100 hours—even through heat, humidity, and high-stress moments. The triple-action protection kills odor-causing bacteria while nourishing your skin barrier, so whether you're in a boardroom or a sauna with an irate executive, you stay dry and protected. 🔬 100-hour sweat control through heat and humidity 💪 Stops sweat at source instead of just masking it 🧴 Smooth lotion format that won't stain or leave residue 🌿 pH-balanced with premium fragrances for everyday wear ⚡ Works for regular use and hyperhidrosis alike Over 3.2 million customers and 40,000+ five-star reviews trust Carpe because it actually performs under pressure. Dermatologist tested and cruelty-free. Right now, up to 56% off with free gifts and free shipping! Click the link below to experience Carpe Confidence.

What’s said
The transcript

What is he doing over there? Casper. You realize we're still running that offer, right? What, the 56? Yes, we're still running it. No, gosh, this has been going on too long. Are there still people eligible for the offer? I guess so, yeah. That's insane. You haven't tried Carpet yet? Dude, this is stupid. Jason's gonna kill me. We still have this intro offer going? We still have it. For people who haven't tried it, they can get it for 56% off. You get to choose four premium fragrances, three free gifts, free shipping, all that 56% off. That's stupid, Max. You know how much money we're spending on the fragrances in here? These are premium fragrances. These rival $300 cologne. That's why I'm testing this. Smell this. Smell how it's holding up. Okay, okay. Yep, it's good. Yeah, it's fresh. It's fresh after the steam sauna. And people can still get this for 56% off? They can, yeah. This is crazy. There's still people buying Carpet on Amazon. Stop it. Do not buy Carpet on Amazon. Because it's like $20 on Amazon. That doesn't make sense. Look, if you wake up smelling like butthole, if your shirts get ruined by sweat, then I don't know what you're doing. It's one little thing that's gonna make your life so much better. 100 hours of sweat and odor control, triple layer protection. That means it controls the sweating, kills the odor-causing bacteria, and it nourishes skin. Stay dry out there.
