Why are modern adverts, so manipulative n materialistic? (15)
LeeCharming: .It is rare to see adverts, that speak to the community, promote essential goods and don't use manipulation techniques...why is this the case and why do so many adverts not, just stick to the product and be honest?
I wonder if it could be because they want to persuade you to buy what they are selling.

I agree with harb....because their sole purpose it to sell you a product or service....that's why adverts exist to begin with......

I bet it's becaause all of the modern communication techniques. They can reach you throught television, radio, Internet, by phone or on the street.
And Internet is the most important way to communicate with you nowadays.
But also due to the internet, everyone worldwide will be able to get your attention. Before the internet I wouldn't care about a shop 50 miles far away, but now it's easily to order stuff by mail.
So it's a concurrention competition and the more concurrention, the more brutal the companies become.

Some ads are quite amusing...and even clever...
The vw golf ad which was a pastiche of Gene Kelly's 'singin in the rain', done to a break beat and hip hop dance moves... That's an ad that re-enforces itself because of its originality... Others include insurance 'meerkats', Barry Scott's 'cillet bang' the Christmas coke (drink) ads, the John Smith tuna 'kung fu bear' and the fantastic Honda car adverts of five years ago...
