three kinds of ads

Informative - introduces a new brand/product to the market



Reminder - reminds the audience of the product/brand and its values



Persuasive/comparative - compares the product brand to others in its field, often in very subtle ways

Advertising Redux

A   attract ATTENTION
I    develop INTEREST
D    develop DESIRE
A   move to ACTION

all advertising appeals to either FEAR or DESIRE

ads are either, informative, reminder or persuasive/comparative
