Do They Make You Mad, Glad, or are they just plain bad?; analyzing a print ad" In my essay I will examine how the need to achieve and dominate, and a yellow pack of gum is used by Wrigley's in ad's all over to get the attention of craving sweetness, desperate, and willing humans to purchase this gum to over come any challenge or obstacle they may face."" Have you ever been in a tight spot and said to yourself that you gotta have sweet? In this ad by Wrigley's Juicy Fruit, in the time of danger, you just gotta have sweet." In this ad a man on a safari in the jungle had dropped his hat in the quicksand and did not read the sign and when trying to retrieve it he fell in. As the quick sand pulls him down he comes across a vine and a pack of gum, as his mouth waters for the taste of the sweet gum, he reaches out for the gum and from seeing the current ads he knows that if you gotta have sweet then gotta have juicy fruit.On the left hand side lays a vine which will lead him to safety but insteadhis taste buds is saying Gotta Have Sweet. This shows the need to dominate because the ad's slogan is dominating the reade
The kind of audience the advertisers is trying to appeal to is anyone who just gotta have sweet. In the advertising world there are principles that the advertisers go by and half the time it is not for the readers sake it is to receive notice when presenting it before the board for approval. So is advertising really the best way to sell a product?. The man is sinking in the quicksand and he can easily tug on the vine to safety but he just gotta have sweet. In this essay we analyzed the concept of this ad and how the advertisers do not give you (the reader) enough information to see why this man wants to risk his life for a piece of gum. ? He says " All he found was fatuous slogans and flatulent generalities. You can be dyeing or in danger but noting is like juicy fruit. This ad is a populist appeal because by seeing this ad and that seeming the man would rather have the gum then save his life then this will appeal to the public that this gum is well worth it.
