Styles of Creative Advertising
13
Unique Selling Proposition Creative Style (USP)
An advertiser makes a superiority claim based on a unique product attribute that
represents a meaningful, distinctive consumer benefit.
14
Brand Image Creative Style
• The brand image style involves psychosocial, rather than physical differentiation.
• Transformational advertising
15
Resonance Creative Style
• Does not focus on product claims or brand images but rather seeks to present circumstances or situations that find counterparts in the real or imagined experience of the target audience.
• Examples: Dove’s “Real Beauty” campaign
• QuickStep laminate floors
16
Generic Creative Style
• An advertiser employs a generic style when making a claim that could be made by any company that markets a brand in a particular category.
• Most appropriate for a brand that dominates a product category.
• Example: Campbell’s Soup
17
Preemptive Creative Style
• An advertiser makes a generic-type claim but does it with an assertion of superiority.
• Example: “Visine gets the red out.”
18
In Summary
• An advertiser might use two or more styles simultaneously.
• Some experts believe that advertising is most effective when it addresses both functional product and symbolic benefits.
• Effective advertising must establish a clear meaning of what the brand is and how it compares to competitive offerings.

Attributes-Consequences-Values
• Attributes are features or aspects of advertised brands.
