Forbes Blog

The way in which an advertisement is created can have a huge impact on people who viewed and took interest in the advertisement.  The advertisement being created has to appeal to the audience and has to get their attention so that the product or company being displayed can get people to become interested.  However, different advertisements appeal to different people and the way an advertisement portrays itself has different meanings.  It doesn't matter how prolific a person's job title is, or if a person belongs to a well known advertising company.  Views on what makes an advertisement good or successful varies.  Looking at new ways to try to get customers to buy products is the name of the game so learning from other successful advertisements and using different means to advertise is the name of the game.  The internet is a huge area where advertisement companies can get their names out their through popular websites that people visit.  The main idea however is to interest the consumer and get their attention.
Personally sports advertisements in general seem to get my attention, especially the ones that deal with soccer because that is my favorite sport.  The one advertisement that comes to mind is the write your future Nike commercial.  
This advertisement catches my attention because it shows how any moment the future can change with one action a player makes.  This shows that anyone can change their future for the better if they work hard enough.

  1. Wish you had spoken more directly to the Forbe's content. Also, you need to embed the video, not simply make a link to it.
