How do you feel about "Using hot girls to sell things" type of marketing?

New
Be honest, have you ever bought a product simply because a hot chick advertised it?

Do you think it's a good way of marketing a product?

Things like those old GoDaddy ads

early 2k beer commercials



Squatch soap with Sidney Sweeney

My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

Yes but they should use 2d anime girls and not slutty strip club pinups from straight out of the 1980s/1990s/early 2000s.

Lots of visual media has hot girls for marketing.
No, this isn't my signature.

I am of the humble opinion that advertising should be illegal, but until that gets put into law, I'll take hot girls over for example whatever Jaguar was doing.

If it works, it works. The actresses I'm sure are paid well, and I get to see hot women.
I can't say there's much downside. I'm not falling for the marketing either way.

NieR Automata and Replicant would've sold x10 times more if Kaine were a main character in both games.

And if both games had mod support (to make Kaine's chest flat), it would've been even better.

It is similar to how I feel about those ubiquitous YouTube sponsorships every YouTuber has, for example Raymon earbuds or Established Titles. It is usually cringe-inducing ads for a mediocre product.

I wouldn’t buy it but I am also not the target audience.
"Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think.”

Can't see I really have, unless of course you count anime and Anime figures. Because then I am guilty. XD

It is currently 60-70% off on different CDKeys sites.
I don't think you'll get a better deal than 70%-off anytime soon.

It gets really insidious when sex appeal is marketed towards women, because it's meant to make us feel like shit. "Oh, look at these women playfully flaunting their crop tops and ass exposing short shorts! You ain't shit unless you have the 'confidence' to do the same!"

The most it ever does is makes me want to fuck the model, not buy the product in question.
Take care of yourself

I like seeing it, but I haven't bought a product simply because a hot girl advertises it. It's just nice to see, is all.

Note that here I am referring solely to ads of general products or services that show actual girls. Live-action ads, basically. I am not counting things like anime, manga, VNs, comic books, cartoons, video games, or other similar things that have hot girls; I am not counting live action film or television that has hot girls either. These cases use characters that appear in the media being advertised, which is completely different to ads selling, say, earbuds or dog food. If you choose to count that which I haven't, then I have bought things there.

No. I see the waifu, smile, get nervous, blush mentally, feel many other feelings as well, and then move on. I buy things for the substance; not for the gimmicky ads.
