MIDDLE SCHOOL PROMPTS

 AdvertiseA garbage bag that deters rats? A taco with the spices on the outside? Luggage you can ride on?

It seems we humans have a great amount of imagination when it comes to cooking up new products. But are those real or just someone’s dream?

They’re all very real. The garbage bag is scented with mint and is manufactured by Mint-X. The tacos are Ruiz Foods’ El Monterey Shell Shocker Taquitos. And the luggage you can ride on is a Micro Scooter by Samsonite.

Advertise

Now it’s your turn: Take an existing product and give it a new twist (like Mint-X did with the garbage bag). Decide why the new twist is a good thing and then advertise it! Create a radio or magazine ad for it or write a television commercial for it.

Or, if you prefer, devise a completely new product that you know will meet a need. Then advertise it! Create a radio or magazine ad for it or write a television commercial for it. Be sure to think of ways to persuade a particular group of people to buy your new product.
