Q. Advertisements can be award-winning, controversial, successful or totally ineffective. Different people have different opinions. As a marketing professional, you need to go beyond categorizing ads as successful or not and analyze the techniques used to create the messages.
Provide a brief overview (1 paragraph) of any ad, commercial or entire advertising campaign and state whether you consider it effective or ineffective in the United States and (your choice) of another country.
Providing a link to the actual commercial, advertisement or product from a site, such as YouTube, makes the discussion more fun and easier for your classmates to assess the ad you are describing. (NOTE: providing a link is not required.)
Classify what execution method(s) were used for this advertisement or advertisement campaign. Armstrong & Kotler (2006) list the execution methods as:
Slice of life
Lifestyle
Fantasy
Mood or image
Musical
Personality symbol
Technical expertise
Scientific evidence
Testimonial evidence or endorsement
Examine whether the ad's message and execution method(s) are a good match to use internationally.
Explain your interpretation and provide a comment for improvement(s).
Does the price level of the advertised item have an affect internationally?
