Many people argue that some or most of these ads aren’t ethical because they will create a problem or insecurity and then give the solution to that problem in the form of their product.…

    Consuming Kids (Summary)

    This survey was born out of concern that there are few statistics on the effects of marketing industry 's impact on our youth. Just as the article on "Consuming Kids" raises awareness about children being lured into believing they can 't live without things and the problems rising out of it. This survey makes us aware of how this market is willing to sacrifice the sanctity of family life by undermining the parents via their television while children watch mega hours of uninterrupted commercials aimed at them. These surveys were compared with a couple of sparsely completed other ones. The respondents felt that problems such as: aggressiveness, materialism, obesity, lack of creativity, overly sexualized behavior and self-esteem, were detrimentally influenced by the youth marketing industry.…

    Thesis Statement: Advertisements are allowing and affecting teens to start being independent buyers. I strongly believed that most ads are unethical because advertisements will say whatever teens want to hear in order for them to buy their products. Teens are also getting a lot of self-esteem problems and eating disorders because they’ve been trying to look like the models from the advertisements.…

    Consumption Journal

    This exercise is designed to be an incremental three part assignment. The first part requires students to maintain a personal consumption journal. In the second part, each student is told to construct a portrait of themselves as a consumer by developing a list of ten products or services typically purchased. The third portion of the assignment is an advertisement evaluation. This requires students to select two products from their ten product list and locate advertisements or promotions for them. For each advertisement selected, students are required to identify four to six consumer behavior concepts used in the ad, to describe the demographic and psychographic segments to which the ad was targeted and to explain the reasoning for their conclusions. Finally, students are asked to assess whether or not they are representative of these segments.…

    Marketers are extremely interested in children as consumers because children themselves spend billions of dollars annually, influence household purchases, and are future adult consumers ( Wilkie, 1994). According to (McNeal & Yeh, 1993, p 36) “…a lifetime customer may be worth $100,000 to a retailer.” Hence, the advertising industry aggressively pursues efforts to understand and anticipate the needs and desires of young consumers (McNeal & Yeh, 1993). With more sophisticated market research techniques, the marketers have gained a wealth of information about children and teenagers. A review of the research methods marketers’ use provides insight into the type of information they seek: information that allows them to design marketing strategies for…
