That’s old news.
🎵 You know we have more prescription drugs now
Every commercial that comes on TV is a prescription drug ad
I can’t watch TV for four minutes without thinking I have five serious diseases
Like: “Do you ever wake up tired in the mornings?”
Oh my god, I have this! Write this down. Whatever it is, I have it
Half the time I don’t even know what the commercial is:
There’s people running in fields or flying kites or swimming in the ocean
Like: “That is the greatest disease ever. How do you get that?
That disease comes with a hot chick and a puppy.” 🎶

Ads don’t need to make you explicitly go out to buy the product to be effective. All they need to do is make you feel more familiar with the brand next time they and a competitor are next to each other in the store, and you need to decide which one to pick.
TL;DR: For stuff you’ll need to buy anyway, brand awareness is all the ad needs to do.

A lot of people claiming advertising doesn’t work on them don’t grasp this. I realized how hard it is to get around this when I first went to buy car insurance. Every company I could think of initially had shown me commericals my whole life.

I would love to ditch my car insurance company, but my discount from being with them so long makes their quotes the lowest. I’ve looked several times over my life.
