- Keep it concise: Use short, compelling copy that drives action
- Create contrast: Ensure your CTA button stands out visually

- Position strategically: Place CTAs at natural decision points in your campaign flow
- Use the Large Format option: For important calls to action, the large format creates more visual impact
Common Questions
Q: How many CTAs should I include in my campaign? A: While multiple CTAs throughout a longer campaign can be effective, each CTA Block should focus on a single, clear action.
Q: Should I use the Large Format toggle? A: The Large Format creates a more visually distinct CTA section and works well for primary conversion points. It's particularly effective when you want to create visual separation between the CTA and surrounding content.
Q: What makes an effective CTA? A: Effective CTAs are clear, specific, action-oriented, and communicate value. Instead of generic text like "Submit" or "Click Here," use specific language like "Get Your Free Guide" or "Start Your 14-Day Trial."
