Decent Essays
I decided to go with the Proactiv commercial sequence as I felt it was the perfect example of Monroe’s Motivated Sequence. The commercial first gains your attention by using a celebrity to introduce the product before showing you the “hired” models with their perfect skin that have all been haunted by their acne.
