  3. 6. Conclusion • Does the ad provide a strong linkto the brand? • Is there a “call to action” (CTA)? • Depends on objectives of advertisement (e.g., induce trial, change habits, intensify usage, sustain preference, confirm imagery, etc.) • What is the objective of the ad? • Is the ad “brand positive”? • Does it make you want to buy the product or does it improve your opinion of the brand? • Remember, an ad is NOT effective unless it ultimately translates into sales – either in the short or long term • Recommendations: How would you improve the ad?

Helpful Terminology: Television • Spot: Commercial • “60” or “30”: A commercial that is 60 or 30 seconds long. • Cut-down: A commercial that has been shortened from it’s original length (i.e. “cut-down” from a “60” to a “30”). • Tag: An ending to a commercial (usually 5, 10 or 15 seconds out of the typical 30) that includes a unique / local offer (“Special lease deal at Westwood BMW…”).

  9. Helpful Terminology: Print • Headline: Prominent line to introduce ad and/or grab a reader’s attention (typically in largest type). • Copy: The written words on the ad. Typically they’ll be together in one part of the ad as a “copy block”. • Tagline: A line connected to the brand, typically at the end of a copy block or near the logo (i.e. BMW. The Ultimate Driving Machine). • Single: An ad that takes one page (8.5 x 11ish size). • Spread: An ad that takes two pages, side-by-side (8.5 x 22ish size). MA Ad Critique Workshop

  10. Helpful Terminology: Online • Display ad: Static ad placed on a website, usually a square or rectangle shape along the right side or along the top of a web page. • Banner ad: Display ad placed at the top of a website. • Rich media: Online ad with motion – video, animation, etc. • Targeted ads: Uses the sites previously visited by a consumer to select and deliver targeted ad content. Have you ever looked at a book on Amazon and then seen an ad for that book on a different website later? That’s targeted online advertising. • Search ads: purchased listings that appear in search engine results. Think of the first few listings that appear in a Google search, or the paid listings along the right-hand side of the web page displaying search results. MA Ad Critique Workshop
