MORNE Posted February 2, 2021 Share still not going to buy their sugar water, so no, not successful marketing You dont have to. The brand is being spoken about and is receiving eyeballs lol * Everybody, (even EFF members) still buys from clicks even though they were outraged about the alleged racist shampoo advert last year. Clicks got way more exposure from a brand point of view then what that advert was supposed to ever achieve. So that was arguably a NET win for them.

Vetplant Posted February 2, 2021 Share You dont have to. The brand is being spoken about and is receiving eyeballs lolFunny thing though. We did buy their Magnesium Fizzy last week. Next time round, I'll pick a different fizzy, I have a couple of options. So yes, you are right. It is debatable as to whether it was successful or not. You win some, you lose some. They won't go out of business because of this. But the money spent on this advert is maybe not going to give them satisfactory reward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbr Posted February 2, 2021 Share Next time round, I'll pick a different fizzy, I have a couple of options. are you not happy with theirs or is it just because they hurt your feelings ? as cringy as the video is (I don't see how it is an ad, they don't even talk of the products), I use their bum cream just because it's much cheaper than the others and works well, not gonna stop buying it for some jokes Edited February 2, 2021 by Jbr Dust46! and MORNE 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked theirs the last time round because it was on special. Next time round I'll just pick the product next to theirs. Not doing this to spite them, but I don't identify with the brand they are portraying. Am I allowed to do that or am I partaking in #CancelCulture? PS. Honest Question, not rhetoric.

MTBeer Posted February 2, 2021 Share still not going to buy their sugar water, so no, not successful marketing would you buy any sugar water snake oil chemical cocktail supplement based on a marketing campaign? I wouldn't (and you probably wouldn't either), so I don't think we are the target market. Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubarra Posted February 2, 2021 Share In the end it was arguably successful marketing...Whether they intended it this way or not.We are still talking about it. - “There is no such thing as bad publicity” Part of me was wondering if the ad was intentionally bad to make it go viral. But given the response to Philip and all the ads being pulled I have my doubts that this was the intention.. Vetplant, MORNE and Dusty 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
