Reaching different demographics
Business are targeting children because they remember younger and are loyal sooner. Children also nag parents into purchasing items they wouldn't have normally bought.
Parent's are concerned with money, education, social causes, and creating quality family time. They are also concerned with what makes their family happen.
Number one food choice for school cafeteria is PIZZA (Dominos).
Companies use sponsors to reach school demographic.
Buzz marketing - using popular individuals to advertise their product.
For targeting ages 18-24, individuals are more concerned with quality rather than brand loyalty.
We take Joe Camel off the billboard because it is marketing bad products to our children, but Ronald McDonald is considered cute. How different are they in their impact, and what they're trying to get kids to do?
