Would you classify this email as an advertisement or an account update?

Only 4 hours left in 2020 to make your support known for public radio in the Ozarks! As always, your year-end contribution is tax-deductible.

Don't wait until the ball drops to make your donation...give now, and enjoy the countdown to midnight knowing you've done your part to help the programs you rely on thrive in the year to come.
This email can be classified as an advertisement because it is promoting a year-end campaign to support public radio in the Ozarks, and it contains a call to action to donate and mention of the tax-deductible nature of the contribution. The email does not contain any information about recent account activity or updates, which would typically be included in an account update email. Additionally, the email mentions a specific time period (4 hours left in 2020) and a specific deadline (donate before midnight), which indicates a focus on making a decision within a limited timeframe. The emphasis on the upcoming new year and the mention of programs that rely on donations for the year ahead further reinforces the advertising nature of the email. Lastly, the use of phrases like "give now" and "make your donation" align with common persuasive techniques used in marketing and advertising communications. Therefore, I would classify this email as an advertisement. &nbsp
