Advertising


For today's blog, I want you to talk about an ad—on TV, in a magazine, on the radio, on the internet, etc.—that you find particularly effective. What makes it effective? Did it use humor? Was the product/service showcased well? Did you end up doing what the ad wanted you to?

Similarly, what's an ad that you think is especially ineffective? What stinks about it? Did it turn you off the product altogether?

 After reading this blog, I remembered my past event. One day I needed new clothe to attend my friend party. I did not know about appropriate store and did not have time to go to store either. One of my friends told me to buy these clothes from online and she gave me some commercial website. I kept searching and searching and finally I decided to buy clothes from Gap website.  I did not know why I chose that website. Might be its good images, color combination and bold text.  It’s big and color full images grab my attention and imagine the quality of product. It had color like grays, blues, and white, which is the symbol of “Trust and Knowledge”, made me to buy clothes from it.  It had a 25% discount offer wrote on a bold text.Might be that bold text discount offer  garbed my attention.Therefore, for good commercial add, they need to choose appropriate images color and text. If it has live add than it should also have humor and politeness that grab the consumer attention.

Peer Review ranking


I received all reviews on time and feel that each of the participants should receive ten out of ten. Lynzie , Rebeca, and Stephanie all gave good comments. I appreciated their comments. Their comments help me to improve my essay better. Thank you so much my group.

Thesis


My thesis is acupuncture is the best choice for pain management, safety, and diseases treatment. Now a day’s people are facing different health problem. They are suffering from headaches, backache, nausea vomiting and other kinds of problem. They go to doctors’ office for advanced medication to eliminate pain; however, sometimes it does not cure the problem. Patients not only are struggling with pain, and the side effects of medications, but also the medical bills. To solve the patients’ pain, alternative therapy called Acupuncture is the best choice.
