    If an ad can get a crowd of people talking about how creative, risque, controversial, funny, offensive, etc. the ad itself is, that's always a bonus.

    But an ad's primary goal is to persuade the viewer; whether it's to consume, desire, do, or think something.

    People usually follow their favorite channels. Hypothetically speaking, I know that I usually enjoy sitcoms from NBC. I generally dislike 'reality-shows' like Dog the Bounty Hunter. So people who like reality-shows, already tune into A&E. A&E can inform their existing viewers that there is a new show coming out called Hoarders via commercials on their own channel and lower third graphics. Out-of-home media should be used to persuade new viewership. A&E needs to persuade me, the sitcom watcher, to give their new reality-show a chance. Persuade me to think that Hoarders is better than all the other reality shows I've tried watching in the past.

    • it persuaded you to write a lot of words about it, sounds pretty persuasive to me...fresnobob
    • Fresno, you should start an ad agency that uses one stock image of boobs for all your clients. Those ads would get my attention every time.randommail
