NIVEA's Latest Terrible Advertisement

So NIVEA recently posted a really bad, not thought out advertisement on their facebook, and after many white supremacist comments, including, but not limited to, "Heil Hitler" and many pictures of swastikas, they removed the post. But not before I could screenshot it!

Unsuccessful Slogans

7 Shockingly Bad Slogans Major Corporations Went With

This article talks about some weird or unsuccessful slogans companies decided to use (for some odd reason). This article includes my personal least favorite "Not for Women" used by Dr. Pepper when they first started making "Dr. Pepper 10" which only had 10 calories per serving. It had a terrible taste to go along with its terrible tagline.

I really enjoyed this ad when it first aired because I thought it was empowering to women young and old and I personally think that is much-needed.

Viral Marketing

https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/233207

This article showcases 10 marketing campaigns that went viral. I thought this article was interesting because these are very good examples of successful viral marketing and I recognized most of them. The article also gives each of these campaigns a "special title" that helps further explain how the company did it. Nothing very long or overly fascinating. Mainly just good examples.

Organizing for Advertising

http://www.gaebler.com/Organizing-for-Advertising.htm

This article discusses how advertising agencies are slowly transitioning more and more into marketing agencies because using advertising agencies to organize for advertising is more used in production businesses. Another reason is because "In organizing for advertising a management may decide to make use of its own advertising department's resources. The management may also opt to use an external advertising agency. It may indeed opt to use both of these options." Aka many companies already have their own advertising department to organize everything for them.

Marketing When You Have a Small Business

http://www.marketingforsuccess.com/ic/marketing/small-business-marketing-strategies/

I found this article about helpful ways small business owners can market to the community because as a child I had always pictured myself owning my own business (whatever that business may be) and making loads of money off of it. Obviously, my plans have changed and I've grown to realize it isn't that simple. None the less I find it interesting to see the differences in marketing when you own a small business and marketing when you're a big corporation.
