Pitching an ad and getting your audience to believe in it is a difficult thing to do. It takes a great layout and design, a strong copy and an attention getting headline. When trying to persuade people to feel a certain way it is important to give a strong powerful presentation. Know your facts and how to back them up with statistics and sources, think of every possible question that could be asked of you during your presentation and know how to answer it. Another important thing is to speak slowly, clearly and loud to show that you feel strongly about your ideas. I watched a few episodes of Mad Men before I pitched my ad with my partner and it gave me a few ideas of how to get right to the point and make your audience understand what they need to know as fast as possible. Practice makes perfect, and I am nowhere near that yet, so I will continue to try my best with each project that comes forth.
