Everyone needs a little humour in their uptight lives and more often than before, so that’s one of the reason that advertisers try to inject some humour into their ads. Injecting humour into their advertisements does not necessarily mean that these print ads are better than other stylish ones. However, the smart playing on words and careful consideration of the ad’s objectives, target customers and market standards, humour can help the magazine advertisement increase effectiveness and widen its receptiveness. This is part II..
