Definition
An advertising message or messaging is the visual and/or auditory information prepared by an advertiser to inform and/or persuade an audience regarding a product, organization or idea.
It is sometimes called the creative work by advertising professionals in recognition of the talent and skill required to prepare the more effective pieces of advertising.
Generic advertising is an approach to preparing advertising messages that concentrates on the customer benefits that apply to all brands in a product category, as opposed to benefits that are unique to specific brands.
