Photography


Photography is a cool way to advertise. Some people are really good with cameras (or just photoshop) but either way if you can advertise yourself, or company with a cool picture, that sticks in someones mind, (which is the main goal of advertising) then you are succeeding in spreading yourself and/or business successfully. Photography can bring out the best in a product. You've seen pizza ads when the cheese looks so gooey and delicious, well more than likely they mixed a little glue in the cheese to get the final effect. Also when you see some fruit that looks fresh and clean more than likely the fruit is carved out of wood and sprinkled with a little baby oil to make it look a little wet and fresh. Although these photography techniques may not be a 100% accurate description of the product, they sell.

There are some types of advertising that I really do not like. I do not like Internet ads. There are some Internet ads I'll see on the sides of the face book site that really tempt me to click on. Most of the time they are just spam ads, not even real ads, fishing for your cell phone number so they can text you non stop. I don't understand why people make those ads or why face book even allows them to post there. Sometimes you'll catch one that is real but with all the annoying spam one floating around, I don't bother to click them. The real companies will eventually realize that they will loose business this way. Until then don't click ads on facebook!
