Static-ad concept brief · v2 · Internal

First Test theme · 19 concepts (designer picks 15 for the batch)

Built for the next batch of paid statics. Theme: "the first test of your child’s life", the blood lead screen at 12–18 months, the test that quietly sets the score for every test that comes after. Keep it uplifting. Keep the equation simple: Kits / Kids. Pitch line for any concept that needs a one-liner founder voice: "I read 100 lead-research papers so you don’t have to. The protocol and the kit are what I built from them." Every claim in this brief is grounded in the Research Bank below. Render at 1:1, 4:5, 9:16, and 1.91:1 unless the concept calls for a specific ratio. All copy below is final. Do not paraphrase.

For Corey · how to use this brief

Hey Corey. Here's the easy way to navigate this.

35 ad concepts in this batch. Five universal (work for any audience) + three funnels (5 concepts × 2 variants per funnel = 30 funnel-specific). Pick the lane. Pick the variant. Build the static.

Universal · 5 concepts

Works for any funnel

The Equation, CDC quote, EPA "MCLG = 0," the 824M IQ stat, "100 reasons" founder pitch. Run these as evergreen background.

U01 → U05 ↓ Funnel A · First Test

Activated parents · pre-screen / post-borderline

SAT chart trajectory, $50/20-min mental health pitch, cognitive trajectory chart, "the first test isn't theirs, it's yours."

A1 → A5 (10 variants) ↓ Funnel B · Baby Proof

Expecting / new parents · 0–12mo

The babyproof checklist with one unchecked item, plates-as-suspects police lineup, UV reveal of invisible lead dust, the baby food lookup tool.

B1 → B5 (10 variants) ↓ Funnel C · HomeGoods

Maxxinista treasure-hunter parents

$5K/year math reframe, "New ≠ ~~safe~~" strikethrough, the green glow money shot, "Why is it $5.99? Because nobody tested it," the HomeGoods haul angle.

C1 → C5 (10 variants) ↓

How each concept block is structured

Hook (what it's doing) · Visual (what to design) · Headline (use verbatim, do not paraphrase) · Sub · CTA · Citation tag · Sizing · Inline mockup showing the layout. The mockup on the right of each block is a visual sketch, not a final asset. You build the polished version.

Hard rules (Eric's)

1. No em-dashes. Use periods, commas, parentheses. 2. No medical claims. "Detects surface-reactive lead pigment." Never "diagnose" or "treat." 3. EPA wording: "Approved for commercial sale by EPA under TSCA Sec 5 LVE L-25-0206" — never the standalone "EPA-approved." 4. No competitor names (Lumetallix, Lead Safe Mama). 5. Inter / Inter Tight only. Free via Google Fonts.

Citation tags ([R#] [P#] [A-X])

Each concept that uses a stat or quote tags its source. Full source list is in the Research Bank and Press Bank below. Embed the small tag in the corner of any research-backed static for credibility.

Where to find the real glow footage

For any concept showing FluoroSpec actually working (especially C3 "this is what lead looks like"), pull from glow peak frame / 4s clip (16–20s segment). Do not generate the glow with AI — it has to be real footage.

Pre-sourced doctor scene (for U05)

For U05 "100 reasons to test your house", the LEFT panel of the two-panel split is already cast and shot. Use this still (money shot · dad's hand to face) or this wide. The frames have a baked-in green text overlay on the right — Photoshop generative-fill it out, or just use the clean left 2/3 of the frame. Full spec is in the U05 block below. Need different timestamps? Grab the 18-second 1080p source MP4 directly.

Questions? Text Eric. The brief is the source of truth, but the locked headlines (marked LOCKED in the spec) are the only ones that can't be tweaked. Variants A vs B per concept exist so you can split-test on Meta.

★ NEW · the bag series · use these

Bag-as-background series. Items rising. Eric's favorite direction.

The FluoroSpec pouch sits at the bottom, partly cut off, with kit items emerging upward through the dark. This composition feels native and product-led without being cluttered. Use these as-is, or remix the raw assets below into your own bag-series ads.

Methodology note on the "thousands of IQ points kept" stat

The number is a modeled estimate, not a measurement. Math: 2,100+ FluoroSpec kits sold since 2024 → ~50% of households find at least one removable lead source (conservative — pre-1978 housing prevalence is >30M U.S. units alone) → each removed source prevents an estimated 2–3 IQ points of cognitive deficit per Canfield 2003 / Lanphear 2005 dose-response curves at borderline 3–5 µg/dL. Range: ~2,100 (lowball, 1 IQ pt × 50%) to ~6,300 (high, 3 IQ pts × 100%). Recommended ad copy: "thousands of IQ points kept" (defensible) or "~3,000+ IQ points modeled saved" (specific). Do not say "6,300" without the "approximately" prefix and a methodology footnote.

Hook: Reframe the brand as proactive vs reactive. Test your environment, don't wait for your child to test it for you.
Visual: Two-panel split, side by side, same canvas. LEFT: any pediatric visit moment (kid on exam table, doctor with stethoscope, waiting room). Quiet, soft focus. Caption mono: "DOCTOR · REACTIVE."

Eric already has the perfect footage for the LEFT panel — see Image source below.
Image source: Use this footage for the LEFT panel. The money shot is this still — daughter on the teal exam bench in the foreground (flat expression, eyes on camera), doctor at the computer mid-bad-news, dad's hand going to his face in the back-right. Alternate establishing wide: this still. Heads up: the source clip has a green "Lead Poisoning Is 100% preventable" text box baked into the frame on the right. Photoshop generative-fill it out (5-second job, it's a solid green block) or just use the clean left 2/3.

Notes for the designer

Voice across all 19: direct, kitchen-table, parent-to-parent, uplifting at the close. Never corporate, never panicky.
Headline rule: use the exact copy in each concept. No paraphrasing. They are tested against the lander.
Logo: white wordmark "detectlead" in nav strip or bottom-left. Lime accent on the "lead" word.
Font upgrade: Inter and Inter Tight are free via Google Fonts. If you have GT America or Söhne licensed, those are clean upgrades. Avoid Fraunces/JetBrains Mono in this batch.
IQ-points stat: use "thousands" or "~3,000+" with "modeled" or "approximately" prefix. See methodology callout. Do not say "6,300" unless you also include a methodology footnote.
Disclaimer: include a 8–9 px line at the very bottom of any static that mentions the kit, an outcome, or a diagnosis: "FluoroSpec detects surface-reactive lead pigment. Does not diagnose, treat, or change blood lead. Consult your pediatrician for medical questions."
Authority quotes: when using a CDC/EPA/WHO/AAP statement (concepts 20–22), keep the attribution visible at all times. Do not paraphrase the quoted text. Quote marks should be displayed.
Press citations: when using a news-publication quote (concepts 25–26), include "AS REPORTED IN [PUBLICATION] · [YEAR]" attribution. Use canonical wordmark fonts/styling only — do not modify any logo. Italicized text-only attribution rows are an acceptable safer alternative.
Research citations: the small "[R#]" or "[A-CDC]" or "[P#]" tag may be embedded in the corner of any research-backed static for credibility. See the Research Bank and Press Bank above for the full source list.
No competitor names. Never mention Lumetallix or Lead Safe Mama.
EPA wording: "Approved for commercial sale by EPA under TSCA Sec 5 LVE L-25-0206." Never the standalone "EPA-approved."
If using AI imagery: only for backgrounds and abstract illustration. Real glow shots must come from glow peak frame / 4s clip.
