Advertising: "The Poetry of Becoming"
內容大綱
People don't take vacations to "get away from it all," states marketing guru Ted Levitt, but to escape from modern commercialism. And the chief culprit is advertising: omnipresent, relentless, loud, sometimes tasteless. Even if you like a product or love an ad, the ubiquitousness, the repetition of advertising can drive you crazy. But advertising helps a lot too, Levitt asserts. Facilitating the free flow of commerce, advertising creates opportunities and employment and spurs innovation. Informing, entertaining, and exciting, it presents a change of pace amidst the usual news, drama, sports, or MTV. Ads open doors to the products people create to reshape their environments and enhance their lives, the tools they use to get results. And in an era where there is so much to mistrust, advertising is straightforward in its purpose. Acting in behalf of whoever is paying, it hides no agenda but blatantly seeks your money.
