Marketing Case Blog Follow Up

I just finished my presentation on the controversial "Just Do It" advertisement. The advertisement was centered around Colin Kaepernick, who was one of the most talked about men in the world when he knelled for the National Anthem. This is the link for the video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hIc_epqfI0 The advertisement included some of the greatest athletes in the world (Lebron James and Serena Williams) and some of the greatest comeback stories (wrestler with only half his body and 1st round NFL draft pic with only one hand).

Social Listening A Bay

I selected the brand called "A Bay". I was introduced to A Bay this summer during its pre-launch. This device and company is brand new to the world, and hasn't even his stores yet. The initial reactions to the product is that it seems just like a Juul or Suorin. The design of the A Bay isn't as slick as the Juul but it is more compact and easier to keep hidden. The product says it is a more convenient and unique compared to other nicotine smoking devices. First of all the A Bay uses a micro USB chord to charge. This makes it very convenient to charge everywhere you go. With other devices like Juul and Pax you need the specific charger for the device.
