The advertisement is designed with the following parts according to one advertising analyst: 1) attract attention, 2) arouse interest, 3) stimulate desire, 4) create conviction, and 5) get action (Responding, p. 50). Attention is attracted in the Discover ad by placing the flattering part of the text in bright white against a black background, ôWe think patience is a virtue tooö (Discover, p. 1). Interest is aroused by the promise of service with a live person in under a minute. Desire is stimulated by the shining Discover card in the ad and the motto ôIt pays to Discoverö (Discover, p. 1). Conviction is generated by telling consumers there will be ôNo getting the runaroundö (Discover, p. 1).
