Class Wednesday Jan 30

I think it was very interesting to hear what other people thought about the guest speaker. It was a refresher of what the guest speaker said and it was interesting to hear what stood out to them. Also what I think is a key thing to advertising is knowing your audience and by hearing what others said I was able to see what worked and what didn't. In other words it was a way to pick the brains of the consumers and see what caught their attention.

Marketer 1/29

I think the marketer was actually very entertaining! Little things that he said were so true that just moved me during his presentation! The fact that we can't go with out our phones anymore is actually quite disturbing in some sense. Also one thing that got stuck in my mind was how the wolves that were replaced in the national park made a huge impact on the ecosystem. One product can change the entire world in essence.

Good and bad of advertising

The thing that excites me about advertising is the amount of good you could do with it! Today so many people are unaware of all the programs there are to help the less fortunate or ones that can make them aware of their health! What disgusts me about advertising is basically the opposite, how much bad can come from it! Some people just use it to manipulate others because they know others may believe it!
