7If you think you are happy and satisfied here in England, its only because you dont know what youre missing.And lest any should think the toil might be insupportable, though these things may be had by labor, and diligence: I assure myself there are [those] who delight extremely in vain pleasure, that take much more pains in England, to enjoy it, than I should do here to gain wealth sufficient: and yet I think they should not have half such sweet content: for, our pleasure here is still gains. (pg. 56) -John Smith

Sail to America and enjoy the life you deserve

The moment you touch the shores of America youll know you made the right choice

8The beauty of our land is a tangible and unchanging presence- the scenery is gorgeous- a calming and wonderful sight to behold. Any who come, will be in awe of America the Beautiful, a fine place to work, a fine place to make a life.

And what sport doth yield a more pleasing content, and less hurt or charge than angling with a hook, and crossing the sweet air from isle to isle over the silent streams of a clam sea wherein the most curious may find pleasure, profit, and content. (page 56) -John Smith

What pleasure can be more, than in planting vines, fruits, or herbs, in contriving their own grounds, to the pleasure of their own minds (page 56) -John Smith

by their labor may live exceedingly well: provided always first there be a sufficient power to command them, houses to receive them, means to defend them, and meet provisions for them; (page 57) -John Smith

11Spend more time doing the things in life that make you happy like raising your family, exploring nature, and relaxing. In America you will enjoy the luxury of working only three days a week to secure more money than you will ever need to spend!

If a man work but three days in seven, he may get more than he can spend, unless he will be excessive. (pg. 56) -John Smith

Family spending time together12Fishing is just one example of a job that is flourishing in America. It doesnt matter who you are, or what you do- you will be successful in America!

Thus, though all men be not fishers: yet all men, whatsoever, may in other matters do as well. (pg. 56) -John Smith

20Fowles AppealsAppeals used throughout presentation:

A prominent American trait, it is one that advertisers like to hook on to because it identifies their product with winning and success. (from #6: Need to Achieve)

The focus here is upon the independence and integrity of the individual; this need is the antithesis of the need for guidance and is unlike any of the social needs. (from #10: Need for Autonomy)

An appeal to the need for autonomy often co-occurs with one for the need to escape, since the desire to duck out of our social obligations, to seek rest or adventure, frequently takes the form of one-person flight. (from #11: Need to Escape)

We take precautions to diminish future threats. (from #12: Need to Feel Safe)

Many advertisement in a question-and-answer format is strumming this need. (from #14: Need to Satisfy Curiosity)
