Why is it everywhere you go there has to be something that looks good plastered all over the outside of the building? Basically taunting you. It just screams, "Stop here and try this!!!" Advertisements for fast food places these days are ridiculous.
I understand advertisement is everything to a successful business, but I also have to state that some tatics taken are just plain nuts. Advertisements to children in perticular, lets take a look...
McDonalds: The "happy" meal. What makes a happy meal so happy you might wonder?...the toys that are given in each red and yellow box!!Not only does McDonalds have these meals that make us happy they also have the ever so clever Ronald McDonald. Promoting greasy food to the children with a clown...smart one McDonalds!!!!
Burger King: The "Big Kids" Meal. Now if I were a kid that would be what I would want simply for the name. Their chicken nuggets used to change shapes all the time from lightening bolts to crowns.
Thankfully fast food places recently have had a trend of healthy optionals to avoid the fries or soda. This is great, but still I have to point out that some techniques used are just crazy!
