In Response to Tammy Chou


Can you think of a time where you purchased something that targeted your lifestyles?  Were you satisfied with this product?
I remember at one point a while ago a kept seeing commercial for a face wash on TV it seemed like every time a commercial came on.  It seems like all beauty product commercial are always really appealing and look nice (at least to girls).  At this point in time, I had run out of the face wash I normally used and when I went to CVS, I saw the new product and figured why not?  It has been on all the commercials.   I honestly do not even remember what brand or type it was which shows that I was affected by their marketing plan.  I had seen so many commercials that were appealing to me that I bought the product when I could have easily gotten nearly the same thing for less expensive.  I would not say that I was satisfied or dissatisfied with product it left no affect on me.  I guess you can say I am the type of person that is just willing to try something new.  I am sure if I saw a huge difference in my skin I would have kept buying the product but it did not do anything different than a generic face wash would have done for me.  In this companies case I was their target market and it made me buy their product.  I am sure many people have came across the same situation when seeing the same commercial over and over again that they think why not just try it?
Do you feel companies insistent advertising are to get your initially buy, and not for the quality of their product?
