Abstract

This paper aims to use the semiological approach as a tool for evaluating advertising effectiveness. Many researchers have already examined various ads using this method to identify the visual, narrative and symbolic elements that may influence consumers’ perception. Semiological analysis proves to be a precise and reliable approach to measure the impact of advertisements, providing companies with insights to design more impactful messages. In this context, this research aims to conduct a comparative analysis of two advertising campaigns from two laundry detergent brands; it outlines the idea that the coherence of significant elements, both visually and verbally (audio-visual), plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of an advertising message. The paper offers new and promising perspectives for marketing and communication professionals.
