Back in 1995 after a club meeting in Charlotte we had one of our "round
table discussions" about Apple and advertising. One of our members
suggested that Apple should do a side by side time lapse commercial of
a Mac
being networked side by side with the same thing being done on the
windows
system.
Randy,
When the iMac debuted, Apple did a commercial called "Simplicity
shootout"
that featured a 35yro MIS guy vs. Johann, the 7yro boy (Johann was
assisted
by brodie, the dog) the object? To get a computer out of the box and on
to
the internet.
Johann and the iMac were on in 7 minutes and the 35yro guy and his HP
were
out of the box and onto the internet in 37min.
Great ad. And it's still around.
Anyway, the Real People (or switch) ads are great in my opinion despite
the
criticism floating around about them. After all.. They're not models,
They're real people across the street. And with some good old fashion
guerilla marketing, our groups stand to grow, big time!
(by the way, if you dig around, Apple Canada had a side by side ad
featuring
the apple pc compatibility card)
