Adapt Your Techniques To An Idea, Not

Rules Are What The Artist Breaks; The Memorable Never Emerged From A Formula.

Just Because Your Ad Looks Good Is No Insurance That It Will Get Looked At. How Many People Do You Know Who Are Impeccably Groomed... But Dull?

Forget Words Like 'hard Sell' And 'soft Sell.' That Will Only Confuse You. Just Be Sure Your Advertising Is Saying Something With Substance, Something That Will Inform And Serve The Consumer, And Be Sure You're Saying It Like It's Never Been Said Before.

No Matter How Skillful You Are, You Can't Invent A Product Advantage That Doesn't Exist. And If You Do, And It's Just A Gimmick, It's Going To Fall Apart Anyway.

The Truth Isn't The Truth Until People Believe You, And They Can't Believe You If They Don't Know What You're Saying, And They Can't Know What You're Saying If They Don't Listen To You, And They Won't Listen To You If You're Not Interesting, And You Won't Be Interesting Unless You Say Things Imaginatively, Originally, Freshly.
