...Good Times As I was flipping through an old Maxim magazine I noticed the numerous ads for leading products such as alcohol or even tobacco; it was difficult not to. Many alcoholic beverage products use sex appeal whereas others may use a socializing atmosphere to market their product. Skyy Infusions All Natural Ginger Vodka illustrates strong sexual appeal by using an attractive red head to promote its product. Hennessy Cognac takes more of a rewarding social approach directed mainly towards black consumers. So whether you’re feeling frisky or like relaxing with friends you’re sure to have a good time when consuming alcohol. Alcohol products in general are aimed at a younger audience, consumers prominently between the ages of 21 and 45. The Skyy Infusions All Natural Ginger Vodka advertisement has an image of a large, blue, glass bottle on the lower right side. On the left is a stunningly attractive red head, a “ginger” with striking blue eyes, bright red lips, and cherry red polished nails. The models hair is elegantly styled with big luscious curls. Her skin is a light, milky, cream color and her neck is alluringly exposed. It appears as if she is lying on a bed of silk bronze colored sheets which wrap around her showing just enough bare skin to make you believe that she is wearing nothing at all. She has a very seductive look on her face with her mouth slightly open intended to entice male consumers to purchase this product. In her left hand she holds a drink...

...telling and selling the product.Advertising Management though is a complex process of employing various media to sell a product or service. This process begins quite early from the marketing research and encompasses the media campaigns that help sell the product. Without an effective advertising management process in place, the media campaigns are not that fruitful and the whole marketing process goes for a toss. Hence, companies that believe in an effective advertising management process are always a step ahead in terms of selling their goods and services. As mentioned above, advertising management begins from the market research phase. At this point, the data produced by marketing research is used to identify what types of advertising would be adequate for the specific product.

...to run AdSense advertisements. Actually, there are no strict criteria for acceptance into the AdSense program. It does not place minimum traffic requirements on applicants which unlike other ad networks. However, the only real criteria are “acceptable content” requirements. At the moment you have been accepted, you will be able to run AdSense advertisements on any site you own using the same ad code. The next step is to make the targeting of Google AdSense work. Google uses its search engine ranking technology to decide which ads to show on your site, and on specific pages of your site. For example, on a Webmaster site, an article about Flash might be accompanied by an ad for Macromedia products, while an article about Web hosting might show an ad from a hosting company. This type of targeting is very effective, and results in good click-through rates in most circumstances. However, this type of targeting isn’t perfect. One key issue with the system is that Google seems to be doing very little in the way of ad rotation. If a certain ad is highly targeted to your content, it might be shown every time. This means that if you attract a large number of return visitors, or generate a high number of page views per visitor, you may experience declining click-through rates on the ads over time. Another issue is...

...Through the analysis of a Louis Vuitton and an Etienne Aigner advertisement from ELLE Magazine, it is simple to pinpoint the success of the Louis Vuitton advertisement and the pitfalls of the Etienne Aigner advert. The Louis Vuitton advertisement depicts Michelle Williams, an accredited actress and style icon, with an iconic Louis Vuitton monogram print bag casually slung over her shoulder. It is simple, and tasteful. The image is not extremely exciting but the subdued, cool coloring of Michelle Williams is striking in comparison to the warm camel tones of the bag, creating an arresting image. It is clear in this advertisement that the product that is trying to be sold is the bag. In comparison the Etienne Aigner advertisement is less straightforward in what it is trying to sell. The ad contains a brown fur and leather boot positioned horizontally at the top of the page and a table with a few bangles and a plum at the bottom of the page. The colors chosen in the ad, with the exception to the red tint to the plum, are all in the brown color family. The colors are not eye-catching and are easily dismissible. The components of the ad do not connect of make sense either. The plum and bangles seem out of place and random under the seemingly floating boot. While someone flipping through...

Institutional advertising has for a century sought to build corporate reputations without appealing for sales. Political advertising solicits a vote or a contribution, not a purchase.

By 1784 The Pennsylvania Packet & Daily Advertiser, America's first successful daily newspaper starts in Philadelphia. Many publications banned advertising while others limited the space to one column width. Even though advertising was limited to one column, Benjamin Day publishes the Sun, the first successful "penny newspaper" in New York. By 1837, circulation reaches 30,000, making it the world's largest newspaper. However by 1870 there were over 5,000 newspapers in circulation which carried advertising and the demand for advertising services was rapidly growing. . A particularly disturbing form of early American advertisements was notices of slave sales or appeals for the capture of escaped slaves. Historians have used...

...weight (Eugenia E. Calle 2003). A large proportion of overweight people have been trying to lose their weight in every possible way. However, not every attempt was successful. Due to that, the pharmaceutical industry has been developing and testing a large variety of medicines that are specifically made to help people with weight issues. One of the newest drugs on the market is Metabical, a prescription drug developed by Cambridge Sciences Pharmaceuticals (CSP). Based on the results from clinical trials, Metabical has been proven effective for weight loss of overweight people. The question is how willMetabicalbe introduced to the market? PULL MARKETING The main idea was to advertise Metabical directly to consumers in order to increase the awareness of the product. This strategy was based on pull marketing where the purpose was to attract the customers and make them approach the supplier or seller first. It is not an assertive way of marketing in comparison to push marketing where a seller calls potential customers on the telephone asking whether they would like to purchase a product they might not actually need. In 1997, the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) has reduced restrictions on direct-to-consumer-advertising concerning drugs. Therefore, the effect of the pull marketing was tremendously positive for the pharmaceutical industry. (Buckley 2003). It is also visible in a study made by Prevention magazine, where doctors whose patients came and asked for a medicine that they...
