You really only have 48 seconds to sell in a 60 second medical device TV ad. You need 12 seconds for the proverbial tag screen with no motion in the screen and a big 800 number to call. I like repeating the number three times and telling people to call now. The formula of attention, interest, desire and action (AIDA) is very powerful for your sequence at the same time I love Problem/Resolution. Got stains? Here's your solution! For example. Here's your problem, here's your solution all in less than 4 seconds. Copy writing will be a subject I adhere to as it is incredibly relevant in all aspects of selling a medical device.
