I read on the Hi-Tech Computers web page that as of June 2, 2003 -
a contest was underway to help Hi-Tech come up with a new advertising slogan.

Even without the mention of a reward, this would have gotten my creative juices flowing...
as I found I couldn't sleep very well that night, for the thoughts that kept popping into my mind.

Now honestly, if I were to do any serious, hardcore work on getting the campaign I worked up off the ground...
I'd want to be earning an advertising director's salary, rather than settle for a small token of store credit.

I'm not naive, and I know that $50 is a lot less than you'd pay a real advertising consultant...
even though million-dollar ideas (literally) can come just as easily from
Joe Schmoe as from a highly trained 'professional'.

Nonetheless, below I have presented what I think is a very pursuasive campaign series.
I can come up with a dozen more scenarios that will fit into the format, so here are just the top few:

Comic #1

Comic #2

Comic #3

These images were completely hand-drawn in Adobe Photoshop 7.0...
Except for the High-Tech graphics, which came courtesy of High-Tech Computers of Ruston.

This comic strip presents a visual representation of how my slogan entry, "It Pays.", can work within a pursuasive advertising campaign.
The artwork and content shall remain exclusively my own, until further legal documentation should say otherwise.
This document, where valid, shall serve as an official entry into Hi-Tech Computer's slogan contest, whereas the slogan
to be entered shall be "It Pays." In the event that this slogan shall be selected as the winner of said contest, the reward of
"$50 off of next purchase" shall be expected to be paid in full to Jeremy A. Douglas, unless a written agreement, signed by both parties, shall state otherwise.
