Re: Lame
The most successful ads sell product. Whether they get free press, annoy people or are generally stupid can be at odds with that. Some of the most memorable, famous television ads did nothing to sell the product.
So I'd like to see some actual stats for that ad you cite, because I doubt your claim. |

And I know more than a few people that are so turned off by that "feature" that they will not buy the product or movie advertised or they simply ignore it. Can't tell you how many times my friend and I simply ignore the forced ads by hitting the frig and grabbing drinks and snacks. Like the previews in a theater, people put away their coats and bags, get their popcorn and drinks ready for the main feature. |

You can doubt all you want, and google is still your best friend. If you knew anything about advertising, you'd not be posting your message. (But, you seem to be an expert on every subject you speak of.)
There are plenty of documented facts on what a successful ad is to which you are more than welcome to spend your own time looking up to disprove me, and the entire industry.
Why don't you start with the very ad we're talking about. Second, look into the history of tacky ads.. I don't know about when you grew up, but I'm not going to do your home work. |
