2. I think Frank Luntz can help advertisrs in the way they think about their language in thier commercials and take helpful key points from what he says but there is not guranteed method that he can give us the exact words to use and be sure that they will work. I think that advertisers can look at their verbal content now and take what Frank Luntz has preached and apply it to any new advertisements and see if it works for itself. Personally I stick with my political party and vote for them when it comes to the presenditial elections. When considering local politicians for my home town I trust what my mother has to say about each candidate because she personally knows most of them and I don't and I trust her judgment.
3. Narrowcasting is distributing information across a medium such as radio or television to a narrow aurience as opposed to the general public. Narrowcasting is the future because by only targeting to your specific target market your advertising money goes to better use and you would have a greater return if you are actually advertising to the people who are willing or already buy your product.

Viral advertising is widely used around campus when an organization is using word of mouth to promote an. All it takes is for one person to tell two people, and then those two people tell two people and from there the information spreads like an infectious virus.
A good example of Guerilla advertising would be if a company showed up at an event such as Red Bull showing up to an SIU tailgate and handing out free Red Bull because it is a surprise and its unexpected.
Ambient advertising reminds me of when groups use flyers on campus because by now everyone uses them most people just ignore the fliers because there are so many and there is no real distinction between one or the next besides the text, and most people don't take the time to read them and people find them boring.

Consumers deal with a clutter of messages by selective attention, only paying attention to those ads that have caught the consumers attention and that they are interested in.
Marketers come up with new and extreme ways to grab our attention, unique from their competitors as their way of breaking through the clutter and not clutter where everyone else is already advertising.
The future of advertising is to create a strong customer brand loyalty so that they have a positive experience with the brand and have no desire to stray to another brand to fulfill their needs.
Branding is good for the marketers because if a customer has a strong brand loyalty to one product they are likely to purchase other products from the same brand.
If I am looking for a hair spray and don't know which one to choose, I am most likely to choose the same one as the shampoo and conditioner brand that I already use, because I am happy and satisfied with that brand so I am willing to give them more business in hopes for the same results with the hairspray.

The store I visited was Victoria's Secret. They have a very positive ambiance throughout the store using bright lighting. It is clearly organized into three rooms, one targeted at more adult women, one targeted towards younger women and a third room for cosmetics and bath products. The consumers are mostly women I would estimate ages 18-50 and occasionally the boyfriend or husband that got dragged along with. I picked out a swimsuit and the sales associate was very helpful assisting me to make sure that I found my size and then opened a fitting room for me to try it on. The staff their was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. It was obvious that they were knowledgeable about their products. I have a very positive image of this story and brand because I have always had positive experiences in this store and I would absolutely shop their again in the future.

Advertising is any attention given to a product through a medium such as social or media.
Advertising works for me because I like to try new things so if an advertisement is entertaining or the information is new and convincing then I am usually likely to try the product.
This is my favorite ad because I think it is hilarious and I laugh every time I watch it.
I am not likely to buy this product because I have no need to learn a new language, but if I ever decide to I would most likely purchase this product.
