Mom-alogue

This picture was part of an ad that Motrin put out targeting mom's but in the end it backfired. Moms found the ad to be an insult to moms and offensive. Customers blamed Motrin for not knowing who their target market is.
Motrin then responded with this :

I would have released a damage control commercial with a sincere apology to the mothers instead of the small sorry note they put up online. The response that Motrin put out was very impersonal and didn't seem like they cared or were sorry at all.
One site called the Motrin ad a success because the ad went viral. It was the most talk about thing on the web and made major network news. Weather this was their intention or not, Motrin definitely gained a lot of publicity.

Direct Mail

I received a direct mailing from Best Buy because I am a part of their Rewards Zone program.
This particular reward was not very effective because it was save 10% on your next purchase of $50 or more, and by the time the coupon expires I won't need anything that expensive from Best Buy.
The impact would be more helpful if I was in the need of a larger electronic purchase.
