Do a little research and provide a hypothesis of where your target audience is located on the hierarchy of effects.
Identify Three Advertising Goals

Functional fulfils a consumer’s consumption-related problems; symbolic appeals fulfil the consumer’s need for self-improvement, belonging, or position; and experiential focus on the consumer’s needs for sensory pleasure, change, and cognitive stimulation (p. 31). Identify what consumer needs you will focus on in your campaign and discuss why it is relevant to your target market.
