Babies and Animals Equate to Gold in Print Advertising
๏ปฟ๏ปฟ๏ปฟIf youโve been in marketing or advertising for any length of time youโve probably heard it before, but just in case, here it is again. Babies and animals sell. Itโs one of the oldest tricks in the books of savvy marketers. They add a cute factor to campaigns and a sense of innocence is given to the product. ย With some campaigns such as diapers, using babies in the ad is a natural fit. With others itโs a stretch, but thatโs what can really grab the attention of consumers.
From the advertisers perspective theyโre trying to cash in on a consumerโs emotions. Who can say โnoโ to a winking toddler or withhold a giggle when viewing an ostrich in leather boots?ย The ads can create a lasting effect. Below, youโll likely see some familiar examples from years past, and hopefully some fresh ads you havenโt seen before.
