Creating the Advertisement
• Who creates the ads usually depends on the size
of the company and the marketing budget
– Smaller companies may use freelancers
– Most large companies use an advertising agency
• A creative plan outlines the goals, primary
message, budget, and target market for different
ad campaigns
• The classic structure for an ad has four elements:
headline, copy, graphics, and the signature

Creating the Advertisement (Continued)
• Headline consists of the words designed to grab
attention so viewers will read the rest of the ad;
may be the ad’s hook
• Copy is ad text that provides information and sells
the product; good copy should
– Create intrigue, arouse interest and desire
– Appeal to the senses through descriptive words
– Sound newsworthy: answer the who, what, when, where,
why, and how of the product/service
– Use action words to encourage a response

the first part of the ad readers notice
– Typography is the visual aspect of the words printed on
a page (typeface and weight)
– Art is all of the elements that illustrate the ad’s message:
drawings, photos, charts, graphs, logos, shapes behind
print, and abstract images/designs
– Layout is the arrangement of the headline, copy, and art
on a page; make good use of white space
