• Work out the audience,context and purpose of an advertisement
• Divide the advertisement into sections to highlight differences and similarities and highlight key words and phrases
• Consider the techniques the writer uses to try and persuade the reader about ideas and attitudes
• Comment on the patterns of words,patterns of imagery and descriptive language
• Comment on phrasing,syntax,abstract nouns and adjectives
use of informal questions
the way the text offers the reader a possible lifestyle( an aspirational approach)
the way in which the text offers the reader choices and possibilities,
reassurance,
the use of technical jargon,
the use of buzz words

use of persuasive advertisement to promote product:
Persuasive language is used in advertising to promote the sales of products.
An effective advertisement would use colloquial language, stock phrases ,emotive words and word play to capture the attention of readers.

A good advertisement would sell the plus points of the product like its unique features,highlight the benefit of the product to users and the superiority of the product compared to its competitors.

Some products use empty weasel words or snob appeal or celebrity appeal or facts /statistics or urgency to act /kairos to lure buyers.

Use words to seduce the reader.Use words to whet the appetite of the reader to make a beeline to the shop to buy the product.Use words to make the reader drool,itch and die to get hold of the product.
