14. When we create advertisements we should have: AIDA Attention Interest Desire Action

15. Attention As advertisers we have to capture interest of potential consumers. We have to remember that once we have someone's attention we need to have them remember the product to. NOT SO BRIGHT

16. Interest After attention comes Interest. Making someone aware of the product does not automatically create interest We have to create Interest this can be done by offering samples, coupons, discounts to try the product, introductory price offers. KABOOM! SNUGGY

17. Desire Once Attention and Interest are acquired we then create Desire. Consider desire as the final push, it is what might push the consumer into making a buy. This is done by promoting extra features that may appeal to the consumer. (easy to open, value for money, taste... WENDYS

18. Action We have created Attention, Interest, and desire, now Action Here we actually have made the consumer make a purchase! Coupons, premiums and trial packages may be ways to have a consumer make that final sale.

19. AIDA THE BEST AD SO FAR ASPRAYASPRAY To Inform is to tell about a product To Persuade is to “buy my brand, not my competitor’s” To Remind is to keep my name in the public eye Attention advertiser creates attention, grabs your attention? Interest Maintaining your interest? Desire If you had money would you be encouraged to make a purchase? Action Force you into action?
