Okay if you haven't seen this commercial there is this girl that is excited to be getting an education online. I'm thrilled for her, I'm sure she will become a great doctor or scientist or whatever she wants to be.
Now if they are running these ads so frequently that says to me that they must be working. Who is taking this girl's opinion on where to get a COLLEGE EDUCATION? "That girl is cute so I think I will study online to be a pharmacist."
and so what if she's cute? It's not like you get to go to CLASS with her. She does everything from HOME.
I can understand using cute ladies in advertising if it's something like cigarettes or milk but, man, CAR INSURANCE? Is somebody out there changing their car insurance plan because they have a thing for Progressive Flo? Or the Erin Esurance CARTOON?
a lot of people have trouble selling a home, especially if it has a leaky roof or bad wiring or something. They should get a hot lady to stand in front of the house waving her arms so someone will BUY it.
They use funny cartoons to pitch cereal to children. a lady with big boobs should pitch cereal to adults. "Eat some Kix, then you can DO me!"
Some things that great-looking ladies tend to advertise:
- Beer
- Car washes
- Cologne
- Shaving stuff
- Yogurt
- Tic Tacs
- Booty Pop
- The news
One thing that doesn't work though is political ads. You can't get a lady to be like "Vote for Obama, he is GOOD!" People want to see the real guy or lady that's running for the office. John McCain tried to do that Sarah Palin thing and it blew up in his face. Now everybody hates and mistrusts her and all she can do is write books.
Too bad, I would like to see her in commercials sometimes. "I'm running for President in my PAJAMAS!"
Something like that.
