I highly recommend Kenneth Higbee's "Your Memory: How It Works And How To Improve it" http://www.amazon.com/Your-Memory-How-Works-Improve/dp/1569246297.

It is the absolute perfect blend between textbook understanding and popular mnemonic text. It provides one with just enough understanding of the inner workings of memory so that one may make adjustments and experiments with their memory as necessary. The principles laid out are the foundation for all mnemonic techniques, therefore by learning the principles you'll also be able to create your own methods. It becomes a perfect diagnostic tool when you hit dead ends.

It's BY FAR the best book on memory I've ever read, and the only one you'll ever need to read.

Ok the good thing is these are in small bite sized chunks. So they are the units to remember. For bible people it is bible verses for you it is these bits.

Take 'he regularized his bowel movement, lost 40 pounds and was filled with new energy'

You are an expert on these. A chess player will see a knight and a queen bearing down on a castled king and remember that as a common chess 'chunk'. This is a chunk to an advertising guy. But I cannot tell how it is because I am not one. Here is my guess though.

The verbs are regularized, lost and filled.I assume ads use certain verbs. Things people want. Make these common verbs memorable to you. regularized a giant clock that in the sentence is doing something.

There are things people want. Lose weight, more energy. Put a vision of each of these they probably repeat.

So for me this sentence for me is an aisle in my supermarket.
I see me walking along the aisle

'he regularized his bowel movement,' Big clock having a poo

'lost 40 pounds' my wallet has a big number 40 jumping out of it

'and was filled with new energy' I'm having a battery of energy being poured into me

So thats how i would do it.


But by the way I woudn't do it. I don't think this is a great advertisement. I think Yeats poetry or Dylan Thomas' is much better advertisements. They sell dreams that are a lot more lyrical than 'he regularized his bowel movement,'
for example

'Now that my ladder's gone

I must lie down where all the ladders start

In the foul rag and bone shop of the heart.'

Hey! You're in luck.

Check out my e-book. I already created a letter-image alphabet and a syllable-image alphabet! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CF003OA

It is perfect for memorizing random words and especially technical terminology.
