Advice from Media Masters
“Sharing your passion and providing quality is the best kind of advertising.” – 2FY
“I would advise advertisers to continue advertising because marketing is all about sales, and of course a good ad with products well on display helps a lot.” – Akyiira
“Most important is to keep it very simple and clean. Also, always have your next ad radically different from your last. Change the background colors, and try to not add more than one word on the image.” – Amore
“Have a bright and captivating picture, add attractive phrases to your ad and keep it short, so people can read quickly. Add some text to your ad if you feel like it. I always think questioning people helps!” – Droll
“I would advise potential ad buyers to keep it short, sweet and captivating. Try to make sure your own image is something you would want to look twice at.” – Yalla
“I always like to show the face of the avatar, because people are attracted to faces, both in real ads and IMVU ads. Use eye-catching colors, colors with life and that attract your target audience, for example my store is female, so I like to use more pink and softer colors.” – Nephem
“The ads from the advertising program helped me expand my business and reach new potential clients. The important thing is to make an image that captivates the attention and makes us feel ‘something’ about the product.” – Lusia
“I focus on only one piece of clothing, which I see is in fashion and that draws attention. I put the total emphasis on the clothing, leaving it to shine alone, colors that match. It all depends on what you want to convey to your audience. I don’t usually put scenarios behind to avoid distraction but if there is, it is essential that it does not stand out more than the clothes.” – Ewes
“Stick to the essentials when it comes to advertising your products. No one is interested in complicated information. And of course keep the quality of your product as high as possible.” – DreamHome
“Use big, high resolution pictures and keeping things simple. I’ve tried putting a lot of items in my ads but I think keeping things simple is the way to go.” – DuttyDesigns
“Always keep an eye on the current fashion and use it as inspiration! Be creative when making the image. Use your best avatar. It draws a lot of attention. Use plain colors in the background to highlight the product you are selling!” – Koye
“Focus on what you want the viewer to feel, create a mood with the colour scheme and create a clear visual path. Most importantly make sure your image reflects the quality and the style of your shop.” – Nyane
“The most important thing to have a successful advertising campaign is to create an attractive presentation image. This image must create a captivating story. Dress in a few outfits, have fun taking pictures and choose a simple but cool background. Edit the picture as glamorously as possible and choose light and lively colors. And as the last tip, give yourself time to edit and don’t rush anything.” – Lorei
“Since I have a catalog with sexy pvc clothing, I used an alluring but chic and classy pic to catch attention. I included black pvc curtains to give an aura of mystery, and made it simple, since the image was small. Not too much detail.” – CatSciousness
“Since I am a mesh creator I try to create more current clothes that are different. This makes the public pay attention to the ads. It’s important also that the products are high quality and the avatars chosen are in good poses for the photographs.” – Hunter3D
“My best tip would be to make sure the ad is eye catching but simple, and shows your target audience what your products can do for them. Don’t be afraid to edit your image and really show off your products. You want to sell an experience! Also don’t neglect the message – make it inviting, inclusive, and descriptive.” – Henna
“Understanding your target customer will help you create an advert that is engaging and encourages viewers to visit your store. Captivate your audience with eye catching visuals that really highlight your product and style! Ensure images are high quality and don’t be afraid to get creative with the composition to portray your message. Lastly, keep your copy and call to action short, precise and consistent with your imagery!” – Form
“I use GIMP to create my ad images. I try to play with filters and shadows to give it a realistic touch.” – TheRealOGQueenie”
“When it comes to creating ads study what real life advertisement looks like. From there you can get a real concept of what to do and how you can apply it to your own brand. It takes time but it’s worth it in the end!” – xinfo
“As I’m a clothing designer, I like to highlight clothes by hiding the avatar faces. This draws more attention to the product I’m selling! Also, I like my ad to look creative. I choose the best colors and poses to showcase my clothing. Most importantly, I do it with love because that makes everything go right.” – Qharley
“Your brand’s visual identity is very important. Also communicate clearly and be aesthetically beautiful when advertising your products. Find your colors and define your strategy!” – Laryssa
“My Tip: Bigger isn’t always better when it comes to your ad. You want it to be captivating and eye-catching but not necessarily lengthy and extremely bold. The best approach I have is keeping it simple while also maintaining that point of interest that keeps people in line.” – Froy
“I would say my tip is: Always remember that you are advertising your style and your vibe more than just a product. You can get inspired by trends and real life campaigns but at the end of the day most successful advertisement images are super-simple, yet eye catching. Just remember to keep it on brand for you!” – MissMaya
“Always have FUN with ads and everything else will fall into place. Show off your unique style and grasp your customers with the best items that represent your shop. Display who you are even if it’s different from anyone else.” – IDB
“My suggestion is to do something that stands out a lot bright colors or bold pictures, but keep in mind it needs to stand out in both day and night mode.” – MsKittay
“Always feel free to try new ideas. Create an image that reflects your own style and the audience you want to appeal to. Bright and light colors are always eye-catching. Being original and different will emphasize your style.” – OBJE
“Make sure to have whatever you are advertising in focus on your ad, and dont have too many other elements who might confuse the eye, but always make sure to have your own personal spin on it!” – Redo
“I always try to be creative and that’s my advice. Show what your visual identity is – and if what you have to offer is a good idea, it will get the attention of your target audience. If you have a style then show it and be creative in your ad.” – Kelza
“Be yourself and show your true colors in your image. Remember that someone that sticks to what they love and who they are no matter what the “trend” might be at the moment, is someone who will always be successful in anything they do.” – Dizy
“Try to make the ad look clean and elegant so it will be appealing… Soft color, hair brushes and some lighting effects and the work is done!” – Mikaelamj
“The quality of your ad photo should be as clear as possible. Don’t make your ad look crowded, use a background that will help make your ad stand out and use attractive captions to get your buyer’s attention.” – Namisi
“I always like to emphasize the clothing, keeping it really sharp, whilst having everything else out of focus to draw in the eye. The most important part is to love your AD yourself and love your craft. The rest will follow!” – Unequal
“To have a good effect on your advertising, it must be done with love for what you do. Use neutral backgrounds, beautiful avatars, and an appropriate pose. Always highlight the product. Avoid using long sentences and excessive colors and images in the background. These will take the consumer’s attention away from your product. Good luck!” – Yuli Tahari
“Always show your products in an engaging way and try to communicate a message with your AD. Make sure your visuals are creative and memorable.” – SMNM
“Be original and passionate. Inspiration is okay but you want to create something that best represents your OWN shop. You want your AD to be eye-catching and not too overwhelming for the viewers. Lastly, think ‘outside of the box’ it’s okay to do things that are unusual and unique as long as it’s true to you!” – Poy
“Make sure to use colour theory. Take into account how colors mix, match or contrast with each other. Also remember the 60/30/10 rule. 60% should be a dominant color, 30% should be the secondary color or texture and the last 10% should be an accent.” – Amara
“Stay true to yourself!” – Tygie
“Make sure the products in your ad are fully visible and make the ad relevant for the audience so everyone feels like they can find something in your shop.” – AriXx007
