Please consider hiring a photographer/designer to create your ads. I think that some of you think you can save lindens by doing this yourself, but the end result is rarely good. Most of the ads I've seen make me want to puke sometimes, instead of making me want to buy the advertised product. The background is white and horrible and the models don't look like models but like ordinary and generic bored, disinterested avatars.
Or at least consider adding a touch of spice to your ad...
Thanks

P.S.: I just got a pm from a retailer who wonders if I have any better ideas than this, because hiring a photographer and a model is very expensive. I didn't take that into account so I apologize. I suppose nothing is wrong with doing it yourself as long as you use passion and creativity. I've seen so many dull and uncreative ads that have extinguished in me all desire to look at the advertised product in-world... It doesn't do justice to the work the retailer might have put into their product, and it doesn't excite the consumer
Thanks for reading!
