Advertising Idea Book #2

Before - After Organic



Type of Ad: Print that Uses Visual Twos or Threes.

Company / Product: “Go Green.”

What is the benefit of the product? The benefit of this company is the awareness of how to keep the environment clean and show the benefits of being organic.

Who is the ad directed at, or talking to? (Be as specific as possible) This ad is directed at people who feel tired, sick, and feel like they look just bad all the time. It is talking to people who do not know of the benefits of eating more healthy, in both the obvious (better health) and morale (happier).

How does the ad attract your attention (smile, laugh, informs, provokes, involves, think)? Describe how. This ad attracted my attention because it informs me of what going “green,” or organic, can do for me and makes me think of what other people might see when they look at me. Do I look THAT bad? Should I “go green?”By showing a darker, unhealthy version of before and a bright, happy version of the after, it makes the point very clear. Also having no background, the minimalist ad gets the point across a lot faster and easier.


Why does this approach work well for the product and key message? (or how does it not work?) This approach works well for this message because it shows the man as looking older, unhealthy, dirty, sick in the before. But when he went “green,” his skin cleared up, looked brighter, cleaner, healthy, and happy. With a key message of “going green will help,” this is a very clear and revealing image for how they feel their company changes lives.
