URGENT * DEADLINE 7/28 MIDNIGHT* Grassroots Talent Needed for FULL PAGE Iowa ad

[speciallyblend]

Planning on updating my first design and whipping up another one that has a different style than the ones presented so far when I get home from work tonight. The deadline is not technically until Friday but the PAC can probably use all the time it can to debate on which design to use for the Ad. So I agree that we need to try and refine them as quickly as we can.

It is Storey county.Please include it.

I've never seen it spelled that way. I just googled it and it is definitely Story.

It is Storey county.

Story County, actually.

If you guys want to pick the brain of an Ames resident, just let me know

Ok - I am using imgur. I have uploaded the 8 photos and I don't know how to put them here.

Help.

It is Storey county. Typing this from the YAL convention. Just a thought, basedon what I am learning.

Knowing you audience is key. Period. Plenty of things appeal to us, but we are already voting for Dr. Paul anyway. Know your audience.

Simple will be better. In my opinion based on this training. The 3 tiered approach earlier in this thread will be best. Faith absolutely should be involved for Iowa. Please include it.

DING DING DING! I couldn't agree more.

Too often i think we project what WE would like to see in an ad as opposed to what our target audience would like to see. That's why i believe it is so important to include faith.

I'm posting this here, just so we do not forget it. I think something along these lines would make a quite powerful ad at some point. It speaks volumes.

There is still a typo here.

Cory Adams
GOP Chairman
You have "Stormy" County, it should be "Story" County

Also, there is a hyphen between Constitutionally and limited.

I hate to bring this up, but why are we doing something other than prettying up Dr. Paul's Statement of Faith, putting his picture on it and using that for the ad?

Either that, or make the ad about the economy. That he is the only candidate who warned about it. That he is the only candidate who knows how to put the economy back on its feet. Then, include a statement of his about the fact that this can be done without stopping Social Security for those who are dependent on it. (It's important to assuage any fears). Then, end it with a statement like... It's time to take a stand for America. It's time for Ron Paul. Principle - Integrity - Solutions, perhaps centered along the bottom.

I think once an ad is chosen, we can get the typos sorted out... these are not the finals going to the paper at this point, but I think it would be good for all sorts or eyes on the final ad to catch typos etc.

I really like Awake's ad. As stated before, the color and tone are outstanding. I think the quotes clench it.

Some really outstanding talent in here. Good job to everyone submitting. Wish I would have joined the forums earlier and could submit one of my own.

That's what I tried to do... ads don't usually have that much copy, so I tried to sum it up on mine.

I posted storey when it hadn't been pointed out that it wasn't stormy. Sorry about thaT.

Im typing this while paying attention to the most important lectures of my life. Trying to type fast on my phone.

Ok, I need help folks. I have uploaded the 8 submissions to imgur.
I want to post them so you can all see them.
Can someone please help me. How do I get them posted here?

 

[wealeat]

IF WE LIKE IT, IT IS PROBABLY NOT WHAT WE NEED TO USE. Sorry to use caps but this is important.

Single most stressed topic is KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE. Our audience isn't us. We are voting no matter what.

Im listening to a targeting lecture right now. TARGET people who aren't voting for Paul yet.

 

[wealeat]

The leaders of the PAC know what im saying. I just don't want good time and good design be wasted on something that will not be used.

I TOTALLY agree.

I think it will look to cluttered and overwhelming on the forum if all the images load in your post (i.e. embedded in the post) so I would just post links to them all.
Just make a list of the imgur links and put it in the post, is what I recommend. Let me know if that doesn't make sense.

What are the biggest concerns of Iowa Republicans right now? Does anyone know?
