this was a real commercial for a real product sold on television. and now i know what you're thinking. "there's no way this headache medication actually worked." and well that's where they got you, smart guy. you can't call it false advertising because at no point in this product's marketing did it ever claim to actually medicate anything

#head on #this shit is why i’m not in consumer

someone at the marketing department had a little too much fun with this

dreamt that itch.io released their own special adaptable accessible super thin flexible silicon game controller called the Butterfly you could also fuck (they packaged each one with lube and toy cleaner) but there was no specific obvious way you were supposed to fuck it they encouraged everyone to find their own special unique way to fuck it. and they ran these ads for it that were different people from all walks of life saying what they do with it . sunburned rural dad who folds it hotdog style and jacks off into it. biracial masc lesbian with undercut who tribs with the joystick. young amputee in wheelchair who lets it vibrate on his lap while he works on his novel. etc. beautiful supermodel woman whos like "and me? i just game. hard." it ended with them all triumphantly saying into the camera "and thats how *I* fuck #MyButterfly"

oh facebook algorithm, your faith in me is touching. if only i were the person you staunchly believe me to be

possibly the meta robot became confused by my evinced interest in antarctic cruises, which is genuine enough, but not an interest that i can back at present or in the foreseeable future. it’s so penetrating when it’s good, and so incredibly freaking not when it isn’t

#this is an ad on facebook dot com #honestly intrigued by the luxury boat marketers’ social media strategy #like it obviously works in the sense of generating awareness and a sort of interest #but how on earth is that going to translate into revenue #do people who can buy this sort of thing get inspired by facebook ads? genuine question #like. your ad is finding an audience but it is not the target audience #will you explain your targeting and segmentation strategy or will you die like a dog #lasai #solar electric catamaran

almost sobbing trying not to laugh at this ai slop ad. is there no quality checking at ANY point in this process? not the ai generator? not the person okay-ing the ad? not tumblr?

the emotional journey facebook’s ad-serving algorithm just dragged me through 💀

point the first: facebook is serving me ads for an assisted living facility (that’s what we’d call it in english: senior housing for people at or anticipating the onset of frailty, with a low-intensity, unobtrusive level of care)

when i tell you i had an actual rage adrenalin surge about this. how fucking dare. on closer inspection the copy directly addresses the children and grandchildren of prospective residents, which is fair, and i duly initiated calm the fuck down protocols but ngl i’m still a bit riled up

point the second: the assisted living, though. they’re in berlin. they have ALPACAS. they make their own artisanal ice cream. i’m not dead certain i don’t want to move in

#this is an ad on facebook dot com #amazing window on the kinds of barriers marketers of something like this have to contend with #saw similar issues in a classic case study of one of the first osteoporosis brands #honestly these people are knocking it out of the park. spot on positioning and a killer campaign. bless #positioning #actually a good ad #geriatric marketing

stories about evil and cruel poly partners forcing others into being in open relationships & hand wringing over "egg culture" and "misgendering feminine cis men" & fretting about the prevalence of kink & one million other obnoxious conservative arguments all fall to pieces relatively quickly when you understand that the norm is just as constructed as that external to it and adherence to the norm is just as much a choice/action/pattern of behavior as dissent is

#this is a banger of a marketing insight though. like actually #every day in every way i am grateful not to be in consumer

there is nothing wrong with this brand name in German (‘Art Socks’) and I’m sure the socks are lovely, but ngl it was a lot to scroll into before the caffeine kicked in
