Advertising

I should have been in advertising. I usually pay attention to how they affect me and why. I expect to be writing more on this topic later. But for now I want to examine the advertising of

Geico. I call "No fair" on the 3 different mascots/spokesthings. They've got the Geico gecko, which is my favorite because of the adorable English accent. They've also got the caveman, because switching to Geico is so easy a caveman can do it. Eh, alright...I've gotten used to them now, at first they really bothered me. And finally the creepy little money stack with the googley eyes. It's supposed to be "the money you could be saving if you switched to Geico." I compared their prices when I bought my last car and they are way higher than my insurance company. Umm, Stacks of money? Yeah right! From an insurance company? Whatevs...I guess they got that visual from all the stacks of money being handed to Wall St. from Washington. And then the stupid Rockwell One Hit Wonder song to go with it? Wasn't 2 ad campaigns enough anyway? Leave it to an insurance company to need so much money for their ad campaigns that the rates go up and the advertising itself becomes redundant. What's that about? I should be running things somewhere.
