… the problem is that our new digital overlords have taken over the industry and persuaded marketers that hyper personalisation and targeting is the only viable approach. It’s a complete fallacy. Advertising works primarily as a form of costly signalling. People are more likely to trust brands that are advertised consistently and creatively on channels that we perceive as trustworthy and premium. In other words following people around the net with shitty ads is a flawed tactic. Previous Message
This data driven world where the algorithm knows me better thsn I do......so why does it keep trying to sell me toilet seats? I just bought one, its the last thing I need.
I dont think all advertising is a waste of money really, but lots of it is shit and like you say badly targeted. Previous Message
expect the ads to be directed at an audience that's a bit older than 10 years old? I'm sick to death of animated movies that I hope are made for children, movies like Sonic the fucking hedgehog and those moronic superhero movies. Give me the days when there was only Superman and Batman, the thinking child's heroes.
