What is a lifestyle ad?

A lifestyle ad shows the product being used in a real setting by the kind of person who buys it. Instead of listing features, it sells the feeling or outcome of owning the product, which makes it a strong fit for fashion, home, travel and wellness brands.

Why this lifestyle ad works

  1. 01

    Names a real pain

    'Dull and repetitive' is honest and relatable language that analysts use about their own work.

  2. 02

    Breaks security clichés

    Warm peach colours and friendly people stand out against the dark, hooded-hacker style of most security ads.

  3. 03

    Outcome over features

    'Reclaim your team's time' sells the benefit to managers who control the budget.

  4. 04

    Strong brand consistency

    The illustration style and serif headline match Tines' brand, building recognition over many impressions.

Full creative breakdown

Who this ad targets

Security operations professionals: SOC analysts, security engineers, CISOs and security team leads at mid-size and enterprise companies. Analysts feel the pain of manual alert triage, while managers want to scale their team without hiring. The ad also reaches IT operations and DevOps leaders who handle repetitive workflows. On LinkedIn it fits job title and skill targeting such as 'Security Operations', 'SOAR' and 'Incident Response'.

Copywriting analysis

The headline is plain and direct: verb first ('Automate'), then the honest descriptors 'dull and repetitive', then the category 'security workflows'. Using emotional words like 'dull' makes it human and different from typical jargon-heavy SaaS copy. The subline 'Reclaim your team's time' shifts from the task to the outcome and speaks to managers. There is no feature list, no AI buzzwords and no stats, which keeps the message focused. A stat in the post copy, such as hours saved, could add proof.

Visual design

The grid paper background gives a planning, engineering feel while staying soft. A large serif headline with tight line spacing creates a confident, editorial look. Text sits on the left and the illustration on the right, giving a clear reading path from top left to bottom right. The illustration uses the same warm palette as the background with clean outlines. The thin arrow adds a subtle call to action or swipe cue.

How to adapt this template for your brand

  1. Name the boring or painful task your product removes in plain words.
  2. Write a short outcome line focused on time, money or stress saved.
  3. Use an illustration of people collaborating instead of a product screenshot.
  4. Pick a soft, distinctive background colour or texture that fits your brand.
  5. Add your logo top left and a subtle arrow or CTA cue.

Tips for saas & tech ads on LinkedIn

On LinkedIn, run this as a single image ad or the first card of a carousel, using the arrow as a swipe cue. Target by job title and seniority in security functions, and use 'Learn More' to a demo, template library or free trial. Keep the intro text under 150 characters so it isn't cut off. On Meta, it can work for retargeting site visitors. Test a version with a stat, e.g. 'Save 20 hours a week'.

About this creative

A soft peach square with a light orange grid pattern, like graph paper. The Tines logo, a rounded hexagon icon with stacked lines and the lowercase wordmark, sits top left. A large dark slate serif headline fills the upper half: 'Automate dull and repetitive security workflows'. Below it, a smaller sans-serif line reads 'Reclaim your team's time.' A thin grey arrow at the bottom left hints at a next step or a carousel swipe. On the bottom right, a hand-drawn style illustration shows two people, a man in navy and a woman in a mustard top, working together to fit large orange, green and yellow gears into place. A big gear half-sunk into the ground suggests a machine being built. The style is warm and human, avoiding the dark hacker visuals typical of cybersecurity marketing. No product UI, price or feature list appears; the ad sells the outcome only.
