4: Advertising Analysis

As consumers, we encounter a relentless barrage of ads across various platforms, TV, radio, social media, and billboards. I will explore the complexities of advertising analysis, shedding light on the art and science behind crafting persuasive messages that grab our attention and influence consumer behavior. At its core, advertising is an artistic expression designed to emotionally engage and connect with its audience.

The MacBook is a cool laptop made by Apple. It's known for being really advanced, looking nice, and working really well. I own a MacBook Pro, I received one as a graduation gift in 2021 and it has held up wonderfully to this day. The MacBook looks and feels awesome, thanks to how it's made by Apple.

I don't have class until 11 every day but I try each morning to be out of bed between 9:00 - 9:30, I enjoy my slow mornings and feel like waking up earlier than needed gives me time to get mentally prepared for the day. After I make my coffee I will sit on the couch and turn the TV on, click Hulu, and watch One Tree Hill , I have seen this show all the way through multiple times, but it's an easy show to watch because I don't have to pay attention. I scroll on all my social media while the TV is playing in the background to feel caught up on everything that happened while I was asleep. Once I am ready for the day and in class, I will open my computer and check what I have due for the week, once I am caught up on my work for the week I will open u...
