Art needs to improve for sure.
Also, all the ads I've seen so far seem to have 'subheads' which begin paragraphs. You don't really need to do this all the time. Sometimes 'subheads'/'subparas' work, but then there should be a more judicious reason to use them.

brother, you need to study international advertising a lot. A long way to go. I love your enthusiasm, but you need a long way to go.

Idea is nice but need to improve it overall as its not catchy..make it short and informative to grab attention of others....need to work on the art design to make it appealing..

Followed the classical Ogilvy style, word by word...not exactly the words...
Thanks for the feedback!

Ogilvy is always a good guide to learn from. But first rule: learn. Second rule: unlearn. Third rule: There is no first and second rule.

agree with Shanty! No rules.
But yes, erriblyhigh exposure to culture is required. art, books, movies, design, architecture etc. Thats the only wa to build on aesthetics.

Next time when writing long copy, I suggest you just write it in a word processor, and leave it at that your art director is doing you more harm Han good. Send him to art school. Better still, ask him to join us here.
