A get-ready-with-me routine — the creator working through a sequence while talking to camera, with the product as one step in it.
When to use it
Beauty, grooming, fashion and anything with a place in a morning or evening routine. The format gives a product context rather than a pitch, which is why it converts on categories that resist hard selling.
The thing to get right
The product is a step, not the subject. A GRWM that stops the routine to advertise stops being a GRWM, and the retention drops at exactly that cut.
The format at a glance
- Output — a video ad.
- Structure — 4 beats, each one a separately planned shot.
- Family — Creator & UGC video.
- Recipe id — grwm, which is what you name when you ask for it by hand or from an agent.
How much of the routine should the product take up?
One step of it. A get-ready-with-me that stops the routine to advertise stops being one, and the retention drop lands on exactly that cut rather than spreading across the ad.
