3 Reasons Why You Should Use a Jingle
or Why Your
Brand needs a Band
Your brand is like a late night talk show. It needs a band. If you run ads on radio or TV without music, your business is simply sounding stale and unprofessional. And your jokes have no drum fills to back them up. That is, a music-less advertisement couples your brand with the awkward silence of a comedian bombing. A brand is all about creating emotional response for your product or service. And your advertisement is your brand's best sales rep. If a customer walked in to your store, you wouldn't look at your sales team and send out the monotone guy who needs a mint. Each window to your brand and business should be professional and alluring. Don't take my word for it. Check out this list of 3... that i wrote... with the help of some quotes from smart professor types.
