I have been thinking about cookies and tbh, this particular product ever since I saw a picture of it on another bowl. I think it's the design and of course, the fact that I'm a cookie monster. But it made my copywriter-brain think, 'What kind of copy/description for this product would stick with people the same way the design did with me?'. So here's me extending the question to the bowl because I came up with bad ones that I'm not proud of.

Please help! I'm looking for writing terminology. At our agency, we are getting more into creative writing vs ... executional writing? Please help me find the right term. Creative means developing the big idea (concepting), writing scripts and headlines with flair, etc.) for an awareness "hook" and then the other camp, which includes brochures, one pagers, banner ads, sales sheets.

What should we call the other type of writing? (Cont in comments)
