1- According to the VIPS formula (Visibility, Identity, Promise, Singleminded) this ad is missing the “I” for identity, who is sending this message?!!!!!!!
2- According to the AIDA formula which was later on improved to AIDCA (Attention, Interest, Desire, Conviction, Action) the “A” for Action is missing. What action should the recipient of this message take after going through all the stages of AIDCA?!!!!!!
