I really enjoy seeing advertising that works on me. Growing up, all the advertisements I ever saw were aimed at people who were moved by a very different style of persuasion.
These days, thanks to targeted advertising, I'll get a short lecture as an advertisement and by the end I'll be thinking "those are some pretty good points, I'm going to look more into this product. It could be useful for me."
Gold. Love it. Thank you targeted advertising.

It feels like every third ad on television features a too-perky Broadway number about prescription drugs or a has-been comedian yelling and breaking the FTC advertiser "loud commercial" volume rules.
As a result, my reflexes are now extremely fast from my practice hitting the mute button, I never ever want to see a Broadway production again, and I dislike comedians more than ever.

I think it's time to review the social contract on #advertising.
I'll go first: If I need (product) I will find it after consulting (people on the internet) or after (days of research)
If I do buy your product and it's a low-stakes item or some kind of essential thing, it's because it was the closest, the cheapest, or I liked the colour.
Please stop blasting ads at me.

FTC Says Ed Tech Provider Edmodo Unlawfully Used Children’s Personal
Information for Advertising and Outsourced Compliance to School Districts
"This order makes clear that ed tech providers cannot outsource compliance responsibilities to schools, or force students to choose between their privacy and education,” said Samuel Levine, Director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. “Other ed tech providers should carefully examine their practices to ensure they’re not compromising students’ privacy.”

Who needs AI when #B2B copywriters already sound like bots? Conversely, who needs human copywriters if they insist on sounding like bots?
I came across this ad (attached) for a "creative publisher." Curious, I actually clicked it. But thanks to the buzzword gumbo on the landing page (also attached), I have no idea what this company does, and I definitely don't want to "partner" with anyone that thinks this is "creative."

@VentureBeat published an article on how generative AI can work hand-in-hand with advertising creatives, analysts, brand managers and others empowered with context to understand the “why” of AI. It has lessons for the use of AI by businesses and individual creators in general. I add my own two cents, of course.

@harshad Here in the US, gas stations do that at the pumps. I will frequently leave one gas station to drive across the street to a cheaper one to escape the noise.
They’ve also been getting sneakier, and the ads don’t start playing until the gas starts to flow, so I’m getting a large number of charges for less than a dollar’s worth of gas. I sure hope my credit card company has some flat per-charge fee the merchant has to pay.

YouTube Is About to Make a Big Change Viewers Are Going to Absolutely Despise
#TV #youtube #advertising
YouTube announced that it is bringing 30-second unskippable ads to connected TVs.
'[It] will allow "for richer storytelling," from advertisers.'
“We’re making it easier for advertisers who normally use linear television to advertise on YouTube"
In another gift to advertisers, YouTube is introducing ads that begin when users pause videos.
People touting the latest Coke commercial as "the future of AI marketing" when
A. the entire thing hinges on using other artists' work for purposes they definitely didn't intend (legally, one presumes), and
B. AI's contribution is at the same level as a Photoshop filter, i.e. some simple automation, while everything cool about the video is made the usual way: By highly creative people...
Man, it is so f**king hard to satirize reality right now.

Smart work by the agencies DAVID (Madrid) and INGO (Hamburg), for Al-Futtaim IKEA, where the idea frames the client as only (and proudly!) the 'second best', but that's why it scores in terms of emotional appeal because the 'first best' choice is a hands-on act by the parents themselves!

@yujiri @ReticentTurnip #Advertising is an arms race. Business A does not like wasting money on ads but when competitor B spends money on ads business A is forced to buy ads to recover the market share lost due to competitor B’s ads. The cycle is never ending. Advertising inherently unlevels the playing field as it misinforms consumers. The misinfo causes consumers to get less value for the money.

At first glance, the campaign (by the agency GUT Buenos Aires, meant for Latin America) seems like it's targeting the wrong animal. Pet dogs prefer Heinz ketchup?

Seriously, Heinz? That's a stupendous stretch of logic!

“Do you know a little house-mother — or a big one — whose appetite is a bit droopy in hot weather?
There's always a refreshing appeal in Kellogg's Toasted Corn Flakes with ripe fruits or berries — a little cold milk poured in at the side of the dish, and sprinkle the berries with powdered sugar — but not the golden flakes. All by themselves they have the coaxingest flavor.
There is a thought here for all of us perhaps — breakfast, luncheon or supper, or before going to bed — better than so much meat these summer days.

"The press sees the reader as more a target for advertising than as a citizen in a democracy." - John Dewey
"The citizen will pay for his telephone, his railroad rides, his motor car, his entertainment. But he does not pay openly for his news.
He will, however, pay handsomely for the privilege of having someone read about him. He will pay to advertise." - Walter Lippmann

9/8 Here is an example of one of the campaigns from The New York Times T Brand Studio that is an exhibit in a lawsuit from the Massachusetts Attorney General suing ExxonMobil for “false and misleading” advertising.
5/8 The chapter explains how claims in the native advertising may contradict the actual news reporting of the journalists employed by the news organization that created the native advertising. Research indicates that native advertising often suppresses future news reporting on those sponsoring the campaigns (open access link here: https://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/article/view/17824).
Here is another short explainer video on this process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdpiipsDlbA

#disinformation
4/8 The chapter describes how native advertising also harms journalistic integrity by tarnishing real journalism as illustrated in this short video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8vFS0Pwc5w
3/8 The chapter also explains that when shared on social media, the required disclosures often disappear as in the example pictured here.
2/8 The chapter reviews troubling effects of “native advertising” – content that mimics the look and feel of news articles often created by brand studios of leading publishers such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, etc. Paid content from brands such as Philip Morris International masquerade as news. The chapter explains how this content frequently deceives audiences even when disclosures are present.
At last week's meeting of the Branded Content Governance Project Reading Group, I was pleased to share my chapter "Native Advertising in Digital News Contexts: Perpetuating the Twenty-first Century Infodemic" from the 2nd edition of Emily West and Matt McAllister's "Routledge Companion to Advertising and Promotional Culture."

@Meyerweb There's a beautiful trend in my neck of Canada, where companies put their junk mail, and other #advertising in unlabeled envelopes so that people are more likely to open them instead of direct to garbage.
I'm sure they think it's a clever solution to their #engagement problems.
Probably not a great way for me to save them from a fire, down the road one day if that should ever come up.
Instagram is literally the only place I see ads, and for a long time I thought I successfully had the algo thoroughly confused as to my identity and interests. Lately, though, they seem to have evaded or circumvented my chaff, and drilled straight into things that might actually interest me – it’s awful. I hate #advertising not because it doesn’t work, but because it does.
Exhilarating new ad by Nike for promoting National Women’s Soccer League, made by the agency Wieden & Kennedy. The idea is kick—(pun intended)ass!
The phrase "park the bus" in football terminology means 'defending without trying to attack'. The ad's narrative juxtaposes a literal bus being parked in front of the goalpost with a giant screen where women kick the ball. And each time they kick the ball in the direction of the bus, a wrecking ball smashes the bus!
The #MicrosoftAdvertising platform will drop support for its #Twitter integration starting on April 25—and #ElonMusk apparently isn't very happy about this decision.
