| When preparing your advertisement, you should first define your product's Unique Selling Proposition (USP). | Ûkîhaarîria imenyithia ciaku, waagîrîirwo gûkorwo nîûraahota gûtaarîirie (ûndû wa mwanya ûrîa ûûgûma andû magûre) wa kîrîa ûreendia. |
| To find the USP, ask yourself "How is this product different?" | Niguo woone ûndû wa mwanya ûrîa ûûgûtûma andû magûre, ta wîyûûrie, "Ngûûrani ya kîndû gîîkî ndîreendîa na iria ingî nî îrîkû?" |
| Make a list of your product's pros and cons. | Andîka maweega na maûru moothe ma kîrîa ûreendia. |
| This will help you think about what message you want your ad to send. | Ûndû ûcio nîûgûgûteithia gwîciiria ndûmîrîri îrîa ûreenda kîmenyithia gîaku kîmenyithanie. |
| Positioning is an attempt to place a product into a certain category in consumers' minds: "the best", for example (best deodorant, best soda, etc.) ("The best" is, however, extremely difficult to establish for a new brand). | Kûigîrîrîra nî kûgeria kûiga kîrîa ûreendia thîinî wa kîraathi kîna meeciria-inî ma agûri: "namba îmwe", kwa ngerekano marashi namba îmwe, soda namba îmwe, na indo ingî taicio). (No he hinya mûno kuiguithia andû kîndû kîerû nî namba îmwe). |
| Types of positioning are Against (eg, Hertz vs. Avis, 7-up vs. colas), Niche (a sub-division of a category), New, and Traditional. | Mîtheemba ya kûigîrîrîra îrîa ibiingaga (kwa ngerekano, Hertz îkîbiinga Avis, 7-up îkîbiinga Cola cia mîtheemba), Kîraathi kîa mwanya (gîcuunjî gîa kîraathi), Kîndû kîerû, na Kîîndûire. |
| A Brand Character Statement sets the tone for an entire campaign. | Ciugo cia gûtaarîria kîndû kîa mûtheemba nîcio ciiheaga kambîini îyo yoothe mwerekera. |
| A simple way to start preparing your advertisement is with this statement: "Advertising will ____A_____ ____B_____ that ____C_____ is ____D_____. Support will be ____E_____. Tone will be ____F_____." where A is a verb, B is a target demographic (such as, "girls between 14-18 years old"), C is your product, D is an adjective or phrase. | Njîra hûthû ya kwambîrîria kîmenyithia gîaku: "Kîmenyithia gîkî nî___A_____ ____B_____na nî gîgwîîka_____C_____nî_____D_____. Kûnyiitîrîrwo nî_____E_____. Mûiguîkîre ûûgûkorwo____F____." Harî A nî gîîko, B nî andû arîa ûreenda gûkinyîra (ta, "airîtu a mîaka 14-18"), C nî kîndû kîrîa ûreendia, D nî kiugo kana ciugo cia gûtaarîria. |
| E is what the meat of your ad will be. | E nîyo nyama ya kîmenyithia gîaku |
| F is your ad's "attitude". | F nî "wîigwi" wa kîmenyithia gîaku. |
| For example, "Advertising will convince artistic types age 18-35 that Apple computers are hip and cool. Support will be two men discussing Macs and PCs. Tone will be humorous." | Kwa ngerekano, "Kîmenyithia nî gîkûiguithia arîa meendete gûcora a mîaka 18-35 atî komputa ya Apple nî thaaka na hooreru. Kûnyiitîrîra nî njaamba igîrî ikîaria ûhoro wa Mac na komputa. Mûgaambo ûgûkorwo wî wa mathekania." |
| Part B of this strategy statement is the target audience. | Gîcuunjî kîa B kîa mûtaratara ûyû nî andû arîa ûreenda makinîrwo nî kîmenyithia. |
| Advertisers use many methods to gain information about this group, including demographics, psychographics (how the target thinks), and focus groups. | Eene imenyithia mahûthagîra njîra nyiingî cia kûhûûnga ndeto cia andû a kîraathi kîu ta mîaka, ûrîa andû meeciragia, na muoroto wa ngurubu. |
| Part C is the product itself. | Gîcuunjî gîa C nî kîndû kîrîa ûreendia kîo kîene. |
| Advertisers spend time studying this as well. | Aanîrîri nî mahûthagîra mahiinda magîthooma oona maûndû maya. |
| Important questions to ask are "Why would anybody buy this?" "What's the product's advantage?" and "What is the client's image?" | Ciûria cia bata cia kûûria nî, "Nîkîî kîîngîtuma mûndû agûre kîndû gîîkî?" "Kîndû gîîkî kîna weega ûrîkû indo iria ingî itarî?" na "Mûgûri eena mbica îrîkû?" |
| The last one is important to consider in order to make sure that your ad doesn't jar with the public perception the company has created for itself. | Ûndû ûcio wa mûico nî wa bata kûwîîciria nîguo ûtigîrîrîre kîmenyithia gîaku gîtikûrîana na mbica îrîa kambuni îîthondekeire maitho-inî ma mûingî. |
| For example, hip or edgy ads probably won't go over well with a company that has a public image of being "conservative" and/or "family friendly." | Kwa ngerekano, imenyithia cia waanake kana ûkuogo itingîtwaarana weega na kambuni îrîa yaathondekire mbica ya "gûtîîka" kana "gûkenia baamîrî. |

| Jackie Kennedy is an important figure in discussing the rhetoric of fashion. | Jackie Kennedy nî mûndû wa bata gûkîarîrîrio mîario ya baashoni. |
| As first lady, she was part of the elite, ruling class. | Eeta mutumia wa mûnene, aarî wa kîraathi kîa igûrû, kîraathi gîa aathani. |
| As is normally the case with fashion trends, the ruling class establishes the fashion trends, and lower classes then attempt to emulate those styles. | Oota ûrîa gûkoragwo maûndû-inî ma baashoni, kîraathi kîa aathani nîkîo gîtoongoragia, nao andû a kîraathi gîa thî makamakobia. |

| Once the “refined taste” of the elite is adopted by lower classes, (for example: imitation Louis Vuitton handbags, fake Chanel sunglasses) the elite then shift gears and establish a new high-fashion trend that places them back at the top of the fashion pyramid. | Mwîhuumbîre ûcio wa kîraathi kîa arîa anene waambîrîria kûhûthîka nî andû a iraathi cia thî, (kwa ngerekano: mîhuko ya Loius Vuitton îtarî ya kaambuni îo, macicio ma Chanel ma bakû), andû acio anene no ngia maceenjagia makaambîrîria baashoni îngî ya kîraathi kîa igûrû îîgûtûma macooke gacûmbîrî ka baashoni. |
| Many times, the trend among the elite is to wear clothing that appears “casual” and “low-maintenance,” (all while costing hundreds or even thousands of dollars) – but as soon as the actual casual and low maintenance wearers adopt those trends, the style changes. | Kaingî, andû arîa anene nî meekîraga nguo ciirooneka taarî kashuo na cia raithi gûciiga, (no cikoragwo ciî cia magana kana makiri ma ndoora)-no o rîrîa andû a kîraathi gîa thî maambîrîria kûmakobia na gwîkîra nguo kashuo na cia kîraathi gîa thî, acio anene no gûceenjia maceenjagia. |
