And we have to tell people this in our advertisement. There are several things to think about for a bank advertisement. The first problem is to decide who should be our audience. Should our advertisement be aimed at adults with full employment only? Or should it also appeal to students, housewives, retired workers, or even children? It is a good idea to address the largest possible audience. The next question is how to attract people of different social groups to our bank. The usual gimmick is to offer free gifts. For example, portable radios or Tshirts for the young, and gold pens for business executives. That always works. Banks are very petitive. We have to think of something new to offer our customers. That’ s the third problem. Ours is one of the first banks to have drivein service and to open on Saturdays, but now many banks do. To attract more customers to our bank, it is essential that we have something that no other bank offers. The last problem is where to put the advertisement, on television, of course, but what about journals and newspapers? Which ones are more suitable? And when and how often? These are also questions we have to ask ourselves about advertising for a bank. 11. According to the writer, which of the following groups of people should a bank advertisement aim at? A. Adults with full employment. B. Adults
