3. Relevance - one of the main factors in the choice argument. Good arguments (for relevance) may be a quality product, price, fast delivery, safety in operation.

4. You advertise a new product. So it will be only once, so it’s when you are required to declare loud and clear, without equivocation. All that in a commodity is really new, it is imperative to point out. What is news is new? - What the readers do not know yet.


5. What question arises for the consumer, just get to know your commercials? - "How much will it cost?" If possible, include in the advertisement cost of goods.

6. Useful quality of your product can be fully understood only by a specialist or yourself, but not necessarily to the consumer. So do not hesitate to assert obvious. Show the product in action, tell them how to use it, show what place he might take in people's lives.

And now tell you more about the impact of advertising on sales of goods.

How to introduce your product to the consumer? It has been said that good advertising copy - it's good, but the argument - even better. For example, you advertising tool that moisturizes dry skin and at the same time a good clean it. How best to present this item? Cream for dry skin or a means for cleansing skin? How to submit a new product: a new species or as a cooked in new ways? On your choice depends on many things. In essence - this is your decision, precedes the development of advertising.

Soul of advertising as we know is the advertising appeal. The consumer should know what benefits he will receive from purchasing your product. After all, you promise that he will certainly receive the benefit. "If the product is not intended satisfaction of consumer needs or desires, his advertising, ultimately, must fail "(R. Reeves). Thus, in deciding how to present consumer goods, you take the second (and no less important) decision that you promise, and in what form. The greatest success you promise the promise of those qualities commodity in which most consumers may be interested in the subject of their usefulness and competitiveness. What unique qualities of the product, so, of course, the weight your advertising promise.

The winner is always the one who constantly directs its advertising to create a clear brand image. About 95% of all advertisements solve immediate problem, but the chain advertising each should contribute to a holistic brand image.
