Capital letters in advertising




Use capital letters in adverts as required.
 


Capital Letters in Advertisements

Capital letters attract the eye; therefore, it is acceptable to use them in advertisements and signs as required.

Examples:

We offer independent Mortgage Advice.
(There is no grammatical reason for the 'M' on 'Mortgage' or the 'A' on 'Advice'.  This is only acceptable in an advert.)

Eat our Doughnuts and get Thinner!
('D' and 'T' only acceptable in an advert)

Simply the Best Pies in town
('B' and 'P' only acceptable in an advert)

Kids Eat FREE
('E' and 'FREE' only acceptable in an advert)


                     capital 'M' acceptable
                 (newspaper advertisement)
