Hey, I’m Shlomo : )
Before B2B marketing, I worked at some of Europe’s top ad agencies, writing ads for brands like Siemens, Burger King, and Michelin.
Later, I became Head of Creative at Ground Up Ventures, helping dozens of startups with their content and ads. I’ve also advised and led creative workshops at Anyword, Monday.com, Amdocs, and more.
Boring Products, Fun Ads captures the creative process I’ve developed over the years. To prove my system works, I created over 50 speculative ads for Zapier, Lusha, Expensify, SAP, and others. In the course, I’ll break down each step and technique.
I can’t wait to see your awesome ads!
Questions?
Objections?
I’ll answer any questions you have via email or in the comment section of the course.
Immediately. My ad recipes are simple and practical. You’ll create your first ads within 10 minutes of starting the course.
The course focuses on low-budget static ads you can produce in-house, even if you’re a team of one and only have access to stock photos.
And sure, creative ads take more effort, but one great ad can do the work of ten. Plus, my ad recipes will help you develop ideas quickly and ensure you never get stuck.
Yes, if three or more people from your team are interested, email me for a 20-40% discount, depending on your team size.
No. You just need internet access and your beautiful brain. We’ll use some free tools like ChatGPT and Canva, but even that’s optional.
Yes, absolutely! I originally learned and developed most of the techniques I teach while working for B2C brands and agencies. I’ve simply adapted them for the B2B SaaS space, so the recipes will work for any product. However, most examples in the course are focused on B2B.
Convincing management to try new things isn’t always easy. But I’ll give you all the tools and arguments that have helped me sell my ideas even to the most old-fashioned CEOs. Plus, once they see the results, they’ll ask for more 🙂
That’s the secret: your product isn’t boring. There’s a stigma that B2B and SaaS products are boring, but I think SaaS is way more interesting than “cool” products like soda or sneakers.
Yes, you’ll get a certificate once you complete the course.
Product Marketers, Copywriters, Designers, Content Experts, Founders, Brand Experts, and anyone who wants to create awesome ads.
I’ve worked with dozens of tech companies. Fun ads outperformed boring ads every time. Users even share them and talk about them during demos. Just try it, and you’ll see.

A Shlomo Genchin post is a peek into the mind of a great writer! One of a tiny handful of people I read every time.
His eye-opening process was concrete and replicable, and his presentation style captured everyone’s interest. We all left with solid takeaways on how to achieve winning results with ChatGPT. Highly recommend!
The team loved his session and it really showed the brilliance behind his creative process and amazing transparency into his writing techniques. We all walked away with new energy about what we could write (with a little help from Shlomo’s take-home guide).
Shlomo Genchin’s presentation on ChatGPT at our Content Creation Conference in Berlin was exceptional. His mastery of the subject matter, exceptional communication skills, and passion for the subject left the audience spellbound. Highly recommended!
We had been following Shlomo and devouring his resources for a while, and we knew we had to bring Shlomo out of LinkedIn, to our network in Israel — for an in-person workshop. And we’re so glad we did. Besides being a creative genius, Shlomo is the ultimate nice-guy. A pleasure to be around and to learn from. He listens deeply and explains clearly. His workshop was organized, packed with value, tools and takeaways that we have already started using. We want more!
Shlomo covers the world of advertising and marketing in a smart, fun and very creative way! His talk combined outstanding creativity with smart strategic thinking in a very relatable way and students listened carefully to Shlomo’s unique approach.
The Creative Marketer is one of the *very* few newsletters I read regularly. A must for marketers, copywriters, and creatives.
Folks, Shlomo is the real deal. His approach to copywriting is inspiring, and his output is as sharp and and smart as can be. Shlomo recently spoke to my copywriting class on his topic, ‘Creative Procrastination,’ and the way he (claims that he) procrastinates is an awesome formula for research that leads to relatable, audience-centric copywriting.
We were looking for a high-level speaker who could address a savvy, creative audience and provide unique value. Shlomo was the perfect address. His creativity workshop was filled with new tools and fresh perspectives, and best of all — it was actually interesting! Everyone in the room — whether business owner, educator, or creative professional — came away with usable tools they could draw upon in their work and life.
A force of nature when it comes to copywriting and the techniques required to be great. The team loved working with Shlomo, he is a wonderful presenter, warm and very easy to work with. The man can write.
He did a fantastic job in engaging the students and shared very relevant and useful insights and tools that will allow students to advance their competencies in Marketing in the specific context of Sustainability. Shlomo presented very professionally, was open to answering all questions, and left us with a great toolbox.
Thank you for energizing the team with some brilliant but simple ways to come up with awesome ideas.
Shlomo is super down-to-earth and personable, while also being a brilliant creative mind with so much to share. The workshop was really clear and my students and myself came away with many skills that we can apply to our work!
