Which of the following compositional modes is often used by marketing and sales departments to attract interest?

A) Narratives
B) Tutorials
C) Teasers
D) Status updates
E) Conversations

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Teasers intentionally withhold key pieces of information as a way to pull readers or listeners into a story or other document. Teasers are widely used in marketing and sales messages, such as a bit of copy on the outside of an envelope that promises important information on the inside. In digital media, the space limitations and URL linking capabilities of Twitter and other microblogging systems make them a natural tool for the teaser approach.
