In Response to Jake Thomas's Blog

Jake, I agree with you on all that you have said. I have never thought of all three of these subjects in this light before. You make some good points in differing advertising and marketing in that marketing does have to do with a lot of research on who to try to sell it to, such as what channel or what time of day should they place a car add for an Oldsmobile. My guess is that it would be better to put the add in the middle of the day when most people that are retired are at home watching the Price is Right or something rather than at midnight when there is a rap concert going on. The people that would be watching the rap concert would probably rather get a newer flashier looking car such as a Cadillac Escalade rather than an elderly person's type car like an Oldsmobile.
