...Sexism in American Commerce: Past and Present Representations Sexism has become an integral commodity in the U.S. marketplace. Marketing experts and large corporations resort to this trait to bolster sales, reach out to target audiences, and deliver misrepresented perceptions of the female body. Sexism in advertisements has seemingly been one-dimensional as products advertised for men usually encompass this tactic more frequently than their female product counterparts. Moreover, this is a method that is not relatively new but, instead, has been incorporated into advertisements since the boom of big business in the early 1900’s. The two advertisements that I chose to share provide insightful information about the changing landscape of sexism...

...Daniel Estrada Estrada1 Sociology 101 Prof. Smith 06/23/2015 “Advertisement Speaks For Its Company” Advertising is one of the critical marketing variables which marketers use to differentiate products in a cluttered marketplace. In order to increase the effectiveness of advertising for a product, advertising messages should be unique and meaningful. There are many techniques that advertisers use to distract the consumer to pay attention to their product. Advertisers use humor, sex appeal, and feel good emotion to connect to the consumer of the product in which they’re advertising. Many marketers use humor in advertising as a way of appealing to consumer’s emotions. These positive emotions can potentially lead the consumer to purchase the related product. Doing it right means not only engaging the prospect but getting them to remember the product. As In one of Doritos commercials, a cute baby was launched across a yard to snatch a bag of Doritos from his brother, who had been teasing him. The baby safely won the Doritos, and ate them, creating humor. Doritos always uses humor, the goal of the company is to make money and persuade the consumers to purchase their product...

...celebrity. We perceive celebrities as figures of authority purely on their amount of social weight and fame, and therefore whatever they say or approve must be true. Even if they are not an expert on the topic or even remotely correct. This style uses the marketing tool to attract customers solely for looks, talent or fame to hide the fact that the actor has no respectable credentials. One of Axe's more popular commercials is one called "the Axe effect" which depicts a hoard of women running through the woods and the water to get to a guy wearing Axe body spray. This uses a more common marketing strategy where one generalization, or conclusion, is made for an entire group based on the evidence of only a few. When jumping to a conclusion with only a small amount of evidence, a generalization about the entire group is made inaccurately. After watching this viewers conclude through inductive reasoning that men who use this spray will automatically be swarmed by women. This generalization is being made because some people enjoy Axe body spray but is not effective because not all people are going to be attracted to the guy or guys wearing it. Eliminating this strategy from the commercial would widen the target market to the general public instead of strictly men. ...

...Samuel Pierre III Professor Inman English 102-203 Essay #2 Analysis of an Essay Axe: It Cleans Us Up and Helps Us Remember So We Can Forget Again The commercials for the popular line of Axe body sprays are entertaining, to say the least. With just a few sprays of this female attractant in a can, women no longer have control of themselves, they are hungry and you’re for dinner. Now there’s a new line of shower gels for the guy who women can’t resist. It makes sense because, dealing with the countless hordes of women does tend to make one sweaty. So the creators of Axe have created a product that the modern day chick magnet can’t do without. The extended uncut ad has a guy waking up face down on his front lawn. He then proceeds to groggily get up and hit the shower, seemingly not remembering a thing about the night before. And then, all of a sudden, after using Axe Shower Gel, he has a flashback to a pool party. After waking from the pool party, he heads to the shower, gets cleaned up and is ready for more excitement. This time around, he ends up at what looks like a wanna be honky tonk, where of course the hottest girl in the place has her eye on him alone. They proceed to get away in either a motel room or her place, and end up doing what any young guy and girl do when alone in a room. Which is try on these huge animal heads one after another, and then act out certain scenarios such as whoever had the horse head on...

...ASSIGNMENT DELA NAUFALIA 1206289911 Axe’s Company Background Axe or Lynx is a brand of male grooming products, owned by the British–Dutch company Unilever and marketed towards the young male demographic. Unilever launched axe in France in 1983. Another of Unilever’s brands, Impulse, inspired it. Unilever were keen to capitalize on Axe's French success and the rest of Europe from 1985 onwards, later introducing the other products in the range. Unilever were unable to use the name Axe in the United Kingdom and Ireland due to trademark problems so it was launched as Lynx. The European launch of the deodorant was followed by success in Latin America and moderate impact in Asia and Africa. In the new millennium, the brand has launched with great success in the United States and Canada. The company has also consolidated its deodorant portfolio by migrating other overlapping male deodorants into the Lynx brand such as South Africa's Ego brand. In January 2012, Unilever launched its first Lynx product for women in the United Kingdom as part of a global expansion of the previously men’s-only brand. The Line of products is named "Axe Anarchy". AXE, a leader in men's care, is an iconic personal care brand around the world that helps men look, smell and feel their best. The Unilever-manufactured brand is available in a line of deodorant bodysprays, deodorant and anti-perspirant sticks, shower gels and hair care products. AXE is the No. 1 men's grooming brand in the U.S., excluding shaving...

...Physiological Needs The ad that I found that fits into Maslow’s physiological needs was an ad for the Snicker’s candy bar. The core strategy of this ad was to let people know that Snickers is a candy bar that will fill you up, not just hold you over until you are able to eat a full meal. It will not just cover up but remove all the hunger from your body. Safety Needs The ad that I found that fits into Maslow’s safety needs is the ad for LIC Life Insurance. The ad exposes the uncertainty factor that life produces in front of us on a day to day basis. The strategy of this ad is that by applying for LIC Life Insurance you are not only securing your future but as well as the future of all your family members or your beloved ones. Not only that it also gives the satisfaction to the customers that they are safe from any financial or physical harm that may arise in the future. Love Needs The ad that I found that fits into Maslow’s love needs is the ad for Axe deodorant and body spray. Axe deodorant is able to fulfill the need by beginning the first step towards love i.e. by attracting a girl, which you can’t do unless she finds that you smell decent. Axe helps you in smelling decent and attracting the girl. This ad is an example of love need because to be loved by someone, you must first attract them. Esteem Needs The ad that I found that fits into Maslow’s esteem needs is the ad for Puma shoes. The strategy of this ad is to show that by branding itself to big icons of the sports era like...

...Going against the Norms Have you ever seen a six foot four inch man get into the driver side of a small vehicle? Or have you checked out a woman with amazing, toned hour glass body and thought to yourself that you look happier than her, so it does not matter what you look like? These situations and thoughts do not come and go often because that is not how we typically think. According to the new 2016 Super Bowl commercials, the two commercials that caught my attention of going against these society norms was the Mini USA campaign defying label’s, as well as the Axe Menswear deodorant during the commercial breaks. Both of these showed in different perspectives of how we could be happy without worrying about our self-image and not worry about what others think. The Mini USA has been promoting the campaign “defying labels” since the 1950’s. When they first created the Classic Mini Coopers; cooperate owner, Sir Alec- designed the cars by flipping the engine sideways and pushing the wheels outwards to create more room in the cockpit. This creative design gave its own unique spontaneity and defied the basic norms of what a car should look like. Majority of the time, anyone who had seen a mini cooper or is discussed amongst population often label the car as “too feminine”. However, there are celebrities who were used into the commercials. The celebrities were Serena Williams, Abby Wambach, Randy Johnson, Tony Hawk, Harvey Keitel, T-Pain. They all had a testimony to share about...

...AXE’s AXE Effect campaign that target young adult males while exploiting young adult women’s perception of beauty unrealistically. Dove and AXE products are owned by the same company Unilever. The report will analyze their complete opposite approach to their target market, and criticisms received from the media and consumers. The report will also offer recommendations to marketers that may lead to having a successful advertising campaign. FINDINGS Findings were made in the following areas: target market and criticisms. Target Market Dove products target women of all ethnicities, age, shape and size in hopes to define the true definition of beauty. Since 2004, Dove has used Campaign for Real Beauty ads along with the vision to “Imagine a World Where Beauty is a Source of Confidence not anxiety” (2014). Dove’s ad campaigns feature real women whose appearances are not the typical norm of how society defines beauty. These real women shown in their underwear are essentially making a statement of how society should perceive real beauty. Figure 1. Dove Real Beauty Campaign (Canada, 2013) AXE products target white males, 18-24, giving the notion that using their products will keep men at their best and get them the girl or girls. That is, the type of girls which are thin, voluptuous women who appear to chase down the yummy smelling male. According to ABC News, Nightline “AXE's marketing director, Mike Dwyer, called this the ‘AXE lifestyle’ and said the body spray is the...

...transformed Coca-Cola into a national soft drink. Coke came to symbolize American consumerism. So these are some examples of how manufactures used marketing and advertising to sell their product as well as impacted the growth of American consumer culture.(Cross, chapter two pg:20-33) According to the group discussion three, the commercials and advertisement both play an important role in our life. For example, Gillette razor they always show if you use their product then your skin will be smoother and you will feel freshness. So they try to attract men to buy their products. Another example will be Axe body sprays. They also attract more men to buy their products. In their advertisement they show that if you put their brand body spray then you will get a good looking girl and that’s how they are attracting more men to buy their products. It is not true that if you put body spray then you will get a good looking girl. They are just showing it and making us believe that it works so more man will buy it. They are using a marketing technique here and men advertising role to get more consumer. So these are the examples of how they are creating the American consumer culture through different kinds of adverting and marketing. So in conclusion, marketing and advertising played an important role in the growth and acceptance of American consumer culture from the mid-19th century till today. Consumers buy stuff that they see in the advertisement. The advertisement companies use marketing...

...ethical. Sex in advertising is the use of sexual interest as a tool of persuasion to draw attention to a particular item for consumption and it is considered one of the most influential tools of marketers and especially advertisers. Advertising research reveals that, sexual appeals are often attention getting, arousing, inducing and memorable. The use of nudity and partially nude models has increased during the recent years and this sort of advertising is more common now than ever. Using sex in advertisement can be very effective because it attracts attention, this is some truth of desire, People are hard-wired to notice sexually relevant information, so ads with sexual content get noticed For instance, Some young men actually think Axe body spray will drive women crazy, But brand impressions are shaped by images in advertising, too. Arguably, Calvin Klein and Victoria's Secret are not much different than Hanes or Vassarette, but perception studies show those brands are perceived as ‘sexy,' and some customers want that. For example, I think every one knows the Victoria underwear show. It has been famous all over the word. It was not famous for the models themselves who wear underwear, it just use this kind of way to show their wonderful products. Through this kind of...

...The impact of social performance - Unilever and its environmental responsibility Unilever is one of the world largest multinational companies, merged by British soapmaker Lever Brothers and Dutch margarine producer Margarine Unie in 1929, which is related with lives of over two billion people every day mainly in the area of food and beverage, home care and personal care. The corporate purpose of Unilever indicates that they require "the highest standard of corporate behavior towards everyone we work with, the communities we touch, and the environment on which we have an impact (Purpose & principles 2010)". This corporate purpose highlights the importance of social performances and the interactions with their shareholders. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is increasingly essential in the global environment (Wilburn 2009, 111), especially for large multinational companies who confirm that making contributions to shareholders is the driving force to increase the value of the corporations. Unilever claims that corporate social responsibility is at the heart of its business (Cescau 2007). “We've always believed in the power of our brands to improve the quality of people’s lives and in doing the right thing. As our business grows, so do our responsibilities (Our vision 2010)” Unilever has made a clear direction about their vision. These years Unilever has focus on building their corporate image with full consideration and improvement of social performance, varying from...
