Alrighty then....
We call this a ‘career-limiting-maneuver’ in my part of this industry.
No ‘crap’ Sherlock!!!
I can’t recall the last P&G ad I saw. At least no commercials.
Most of their products are high quality, but I don’t think worth the added cost.
90% of everything is crap.
Sturgeon’s Revelation
I’ll give them props for Dawn dish soap which will clean up oil-slicked water fowl, and does an awesome job of getting the STANK out of our dogs when they’ve been skunked. (Mix equal parts with Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda - awesome remedy!)
I like the smell of Gain laundry soap. I like Herbal Essence shampoo; have since High School.
And I can’t have a cold without slathering my nose with Vicks Vapo-Rub - which negates the Gain and Herbal Essence scent I usually have, LOL!
A little while ago, a commercial ran—Budweiser? Anyway, it was rolling out the tired old trope that women earn less than men.
Ad agencies should stay away from discredited tropes, regardless of how popular they are to the left.
I’ve never purchased Budweiser, and a commercial like that certainly won’t convince me to try it.
OTOH, the Geico ads are pure brilliance. I worked with a guy named Mike when that particular commercial came out. He took to putting a big stuffed camel outside of his office every Wednesday.
...P&G’s chief ad man: ‘Too often we produce crap...
Sounds like the Obama “Administration” ad man.
It really depends on the product and the target audience doesn’t it?
Lotta crappy people don’t know “crap” from shinola. So they buy crap by the crapload and are HAPPY!
Writing ad copy for less than 3% of the US population—Brilliant, man!
/sarc
too often we produce crap
Like bears wiping themselves with Charmin toilet tissue.
All advertising by those fools show beta white men at the mercy of women or minorities.
