Advertising, anyone?
Seeing television advertisements can be fun. Same goes for hearing ads on the radio. Being the brains behind these ads could be much of a challenge, but it’s rewarding. After all, the concept is such that part of the revenue from the sale of any product would go to advertising costs. And if the ad is catchy enough, you’re in for a windfall.
Would you believe us…
…if we told you that you can easily get a job in an advertising agency with a starting salary of RM 2 300 per month?
There! I see some cynical smiles coming up. You! Put down that hand and stop slapping it on your forehead! Yep, I knew you wouldn’t believe us. But hey, true ah! The institution we’re talking about is a member of the Association of Accredited Advertising Agents (4As), Malaysia. It’s in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Best of all, it trains students to become great talents in the advertising sector. And trust us; we reckon that no other institution would have a high-impact course in such a short time to produce top-notch copywriters, account executives and strategic planning executives.
It’s 95%: The Advertising Academy!
95% is known for producing great people in the advertising sector who have worked their way up to produce award-winning ads. At 95%, your ideas are valued, and you are given all the freedom you can ever want to use your creativity. Also, it doesn’t really matter what your background is; qualifications are just as important as life experiences, and so we accept all students – as long as they have the will to become a formidable force in the advertising sector. If you have any other qualifications, they can be your greatest assets. If you’ve done well and you’re worried as to how you’ll get a job right after your course, no worries – 4As is working with 95% to deliver you right to the ad agency’s doorstep.
Once students sign up for the six-month course, they get their job confirmation letter. Immediately after graduating, students are guaranteed to work and earn no less than RM 2 300. And don’t worry about ending up in some backwater place: twelve top advertising agencies in Malaysia have given 95% several letters of intent to hire. Think – Dentsu Malaysia, Milk & Co, Earth, Wind & Fire, McCann Erickson, Grey Worldwide, CC+J Adhaus and Mega Advertising.
And for such high demand, 95% trains 67 students at a time.
Now, do you believe us? Interested?
The free preview may have been over (it was in mid-July) – but don’t despair! You can still contact them to get the lowdown on the course.

Not at the moment : right now I’m doing A-Levels and I’ll be preparing for my law degree course (next year, if I get through my A-Levels).
But here’s a thought : Since my dream IS to become a recording artiste, I might consider doing this course to get a first-hand experience on advertising. After all, TroisNyx* needs a campaign of sorts too, to be known ! For crying out loud, Avril and Daughtry aren’t the only ones who deserve lavish advertisements.

Expect me to join you guys. But not now. Maybe in the next few years, so I would know how to do some real good Flash campaigning. Right now I gotta finish my A-Levels first =)
