Hey all,
Our store is set to open next Saturday. I have to submit this ad to the local paper by 12noon on Monday.
This is what we have for it so far. Any other suggestions??? I have a few more hours to make changes!
Thanks!!!
Casey

Hi Casey, You've done a great job with it... That photo is gorgeous. I have just a few tweaks... (I've been involved in advertising and marketing for about 20 years...) I am a known "nit picker"! Glad to help you any time....
1. I wouldn't put an exclamation point on both of the lines... it loses its power when over-used. I would use it on one line only.
2. Capitilize the "H" in Halloween
3. In the space across the bottom, it might look good with a bullet centered between each portion of the address such as between "Road" and Frisco", between "TX" and "972", etc.
4. In the map area I would lowercase the "O" in "outside" since it is a sentence and "near" does not have a capital "n".
5. I might try making the "GlamourDog" headline a little bit smaller and the sub head Designer Dog Collars, etc. larger since that is really what will draw people in. Or do something else to make sure the sub head really shows up. When I first saw "Glamour Dog" for some reason I thought it was dog portraits, so letting people know what your business is all about is very important.
6. And Most Important: You need to add the hours of the Grand Opening and I would also add the days/hours of operation of your store.
Good Luck!!
