All advertisements have one similar goal, and that is to persuade the reader or consumer to buy their product. According to Michelle Greenwald, contributor on Forbes.com, a successful ad campaign is memorable, resonates with the consumers, stands for values beyond the product, and is intrinsically linked to the brand (meaning the product won’t contribute to another brand). From an analytical standpoint, the 2017 Mercedes Benz E-Class magazine advertisement exceeds most standards for a successful advertisement. Producers for Mercedes Benz advertising know how to effectively layout a page of attention grabbing images and information so that it sticks in the minds of the consumers. They blatantly want to sell this luxury sedan to high budget spenders or those who can afford the brand. It is not deceiving in any way; Mercedes just lists the facts and lays out the information proving why they are the best of the best. All in all, this ad is effective because it captures the attention of the consumer and provides enough sophisticated information for the consumer to be impressed; ultimately invoking more sales for the 2017 Mercedes Benz
Many people enjoy the new car smell just as much as the actual new car. In today’s society there is a wide variety of companies and different brands to choose from. Companies have to advertise their products in a way that would stand out to the intended audience. The commercial for the 2017 Lexus LC adequately persuades its target audience, which is both male and female teenagers and adults, to take an interest in their product.

Other commercials, according to Solomon, thrive on fitting in. The Chevrolet commercials have a slogan that makes one feel to be American, one must by American. Chevrolet's slogan is 'The Heartbeat of America.'; Car commercials also have targeted markets also. For a truck commercial, they will show a truck getting all dirty and going through an obstacle. This is targeted towards men because most men find these things appealing. For a luxury car commercial the mood or the commercial is nice and pleasant, the car is on a country road (representing one driving to there country home). These cars were once targeted towards upper class people, but now they are targeted towards everyone according to Solomon. A commercial strives on the ever so enduring drive for Americans to have better things and climb up the social status ladder. Marketers know this, so they place normal, average, everyday looking people in their commercials to let middle class people know that they can have the car, too.
Consumers are bombarded with advertisements every single day. On almost all forms of media, companies use advertisements to convince consumers to purchase their product. A large medium for advertisements are magazines. Most of the advertisements in Parents magazine appeal to parents because that is the target audience of the magazine. A cat food advertisement would appeal to a lot of parents because many families have cats. Sheba and Fancy Feast both had advertisements in the magazine, but one of the advertisements is clearly more effective. The Fancy Feast advertisement is more effective than the Sheba advertisement because of product placement, color, and model placement.
The designers at BMW have taken the style of the car very seriously since this is what primarily attracts customers. However throughout its lengthy history this company has gone above and beyond the average automobile manufacturer marketing techniques. The design team actively invites critics as well as professionals in creative studies to critique their work and coordinate adjustments that may further satisfy the eye of potential buyers. Imre Molnar, dean of the College of Creative Studies in Detroit critiqued a 7 series sedan at an auto show saying that the tail portion of the car was “inexcusable”. Tom Tjaarda, who is an independent Italian designer also chimed in saying “Unfortunately, the rear end was the first I saw of the car, and I could not believe my eyes…It is lumpy with confusing lines” (Kiley 162...

Ever since the day we were born, we as Americans have been taught to grab the bull by the horns and go for their dreams. Family, schools and the media, to name a few, have carefully programmed us to accomplish great things, to have good jobs, and most importantly, make money. In this success driven culture many people will do what ever they need to do to become wealthy and powerful. Unfortunately, the paths they take to their pot of gold can leave, us as a society, looking greedy and shameless. With its new advertisement of the Viper SRT-10, Dodge has clearly captured some of our society’s view on money; do whatever it takes to get it. It pictures an old wealthy man and his beautiful, young bride with a brand new Dodge Viper sports car sitting in the background. In our days of Anna Nicole Smith and countless other gold digging Playboy bunnies, not to mention all of the not-so-famous people doing the same thing, this ad truly fits into our time and culture. In fact, if this ad was published 30 years ago, the majority of the population would be shocked, maybe even outraged. However, seeing it today, most Americans, including myself, laugh at it because it is something we have become accustomed to. Dodge has done a great job in choosing their audience and knowing how to get their attention, by using a humorous and thought provoking picture, a well planned color scheme and a clever slogan.
The campaign was built on selling a single advantage of the car in each ad that was created. There was a consistent theme between each advertisement: the pict...

Advertisements are located everywhere. No one can go anywhere without seeing at least one advertisement. These ads, as they are called, are an essential part of every type of media. They are placed in television, radio, magazines, and can even be seen on billboards by the roadside. Advertisements allow media to be sold at a cheaper price, and sometimes even free, to the consumer. Advertisers pay media companies to place their ads into the media. Therefore, the media companies make their money off of ads, and the consumer can view this material for a significantly less price than the material would be without the ads. Advertisers’ main purpose is to influence the consumer to purchase their product. This particular ad, located in Sport magazine, attracts the outer-directed emulators. The people that typically fit into this category of consumers are people that buy items to fit in or to impress people. Sometimes ads can be misleading in ways that confuse the consumer to purchase the product for reasons other than the actual product was designed for. Advertisers influence consumers by alluding the consumer into buying this product over a generic product that could perform the same task, directing the advertisement towards a certain audience, and developing the ad where it is visually attractive.
