What traits do persuasive requests and sales messages share and how do they differ?

Both a persuasive request and a sales message try to
convince someone to do something.  A persuasive request can be written to an individual
or to a large group pf people.  It can be used to ask someone to purchase something, for
example a child could write a persuasive letter to a parent requesting the latest piece
of technology.  It could also be a person or group of people trying to change the
behavior or actions of others.  An example is Disney's Friends for Change program in
which the Disney Channel actors/actresses are asking kids to change their behaviors to
help the environment.


A sales message has one primary
purpose.  It is designed to encourage consumers to purchase the product being
advertised.
