NEWS & MEDIA TEMPLATE

Classified ads

A classifieds page: ruled boxes of WANTED, FOR HIRE and LOST notices that each poke at a buyer's problem, around one bold display ad from the brand that answers them all.

When the AI picks it

MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Classified ads for posts that entertain, start a conversation or get people to act, when the message is a list, a contrast (this, not that) or one sharp insight. It is built first to entertain.

It reads each post’s goal and shape first, then its own words, the platform and the facts you have, and offers this template only where it fits.

Who it’s for

Any business. Nothing in it assumes what you sell, so the Director can offer it to a software company, a café or a coaching centre alike — whenever the post fits.

What it needs

Only your post. It is made from your copy and your brand kit — there is nothing else to prepare.

Rules the AI follows

Word for word from the template library. The Director follows the copy rules when it writes into the template, and the visual review checks every creative against the visual rules.

Copy rules

  1. Small ads speak in classified shorthand (WANTED: … Must enjoy …); each one names a real buyer pain.
  2. The brand ad is the answer — what the business does, with its real offering; no invented prices or phones.

Visual rules

  1. Newsprint with a condensed CLASSIFIEDS masthead between heavy, double and hairline rules; ruled boxes with black header tabs and serif small type ending in a square; one double-bordered brand-colour display ad with the logo, headline, body and a night action bar with the website.
