(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nMagBak, Neon Growth, and Marpipe announced the launch of what they believe to be the first enhanced image ads available on Google Shopping, expanding the visual formats available to product advertisers, per TMCnet.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): a new ad format on a mature platform (Google Shopping) usually means a 60-90 day window where early adoption reduces your cost-per-click and increases visibility before saturation. The play: audit your top 10 SKUs, create lifestyle variations of your product shot (on-model, in-context, detail), and test them in enhanced image ads before your competitors discover the format. Measure click-through rate against your baseline image ads to calculate the lift window.\nWhat that means for you: Google rarely innovates on Shopping, so when they do, it's usually because someone proved the value and built the feature for them. MagBak, Neon Growth, and Marpipe got there first. This is whisper-stage still, which means most DTC brands have no idea the format exists. Test it this month. By Q4, it will be crowded.\nIf you make, sell, or gift anything with your name on it — this is yours to run. You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — TMCnet: https://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2026/08/06/10426756.htm.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you? Your logo, your products, your own private room, priced and ready, in about five minutes. That's literally what we do →\nhttps://www.pops4.com/vip?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=stash",
