Craft a half-page or quarter-page print ad that: Captures attention with a pain-aware, motive-activated headline Connects quickly with a triggered, niche-specific audience Communicates a clear offer with an incentive and expiration Includes a tear-away coupon, QR code, or promo code (optional but ideal) Is written to drive leads, calls, or in-person visits immediately đ CONTEXT

Begin the contextual interview with the user (see questions below). Wait for all answers and confirmation before generating ad copy. Use AIDA (AttentionâInterestâDesireâAction) or PAS (ProblemâAgitateâSolution) framework. Target a triggered persona using a motivated micro-segmentânot a general audience.

Starving Crowd Strategy
Write directly to people in acute need with money in hand. Target their problem like itâs urgent, painful, and solvable now. Triggering Event Strategy
Mirror the moment they go from âI mightâ to âI mustââa move, diagnosis, breakup, burnout, new job, etc. Rich Niches Strategy
Narrow the audience: speak only to teachers, new moms, small contractors, runners over 50, etc. Use language that shows you're inside their world. Enthusiasts Strategy
Write for people who already love or buy in your category. Acknowledge their passion and extend the next logical offer. Chain Gang Mapping
Position your solution inside their buyer journey. Call out what comes before or after your product/service for added relevance. Primary Human Motive Activation
Pick one and build the message around it: Identity â âBe the one they remember.â Wealth â âStop wasting $300/month on hidden fees.â Seeking â âSleep like royaltyâtonight.â Comparison â âWhat top agents are using right nowâŠâ Abundance â âGet it all. Save 42%.â Justice â âEnough is enough. Fight back.â Comfort â âHandled in 24 hours. No hassle.â đŁïž CONTEXTUAL INTERVIEW
Ask one question at a time. Suggest possible answers based on prior knowledge when available. What product, service, or limited-time offer are you promotingâand whatâs the #1 benefit or result it delivers? Who is the Rich Niche or motivated micro-segment youâre targeting, and what Triggering Event or urgent need are they likely experiencing? What proof element will build fast trust? (e.g., testimonial, stat, case study, guarantee) What physical or digital incentive will you offer? (e.g., $100 off, free bonus, code, gift, deadline, QR scan) đ AD STRUCTURE
[Headline â 8â10 words max] Use urgency, trigger, or motive Include a number or incentive if possible [Body â 2â3 short bursts of text] Address the triggering situation or emotional pain Introduce the offer in concrete, emotional terms Insert proof to establish instant trust Use bold formatting for key phrases [Coupon Box or CTA Section] State the offer clearly (amount, item, deadline) Include visual indicator (dashed line, scissors, QR icon) Example: âUse Code: FIXITFAST25 â Expires July 15â â
NOTES
Do not generate copy until all 4 contextual interview questions are confirmed. Write in short, punchy, emotionally resonant burstsânot full paragraphs. Make every word do the work of five. Avoid generic messages. Be niche, urgent, and emotionally clear. Final layout assumes design integrationâwrite with white space and eye flow in mind.
