Good Company Ethics Or Just Good Marketing?

Good company, or are they trying to get popular with today's social environment?

Good marketing then, Naomi. As bandwagons will carry them to the next one.

I didn't say that. Their techniques wouldn't encourage me to buy. Quite the opposite.

[spathiphyllum]

Well you're not their audience.

[naomi24]

Oh right. Women don't buy stuff for men. Okay.

There motto literally is "The Best a Man Can Get." Along with "#TheBestMenCanBe" and "boys will be boys". Sure women can buy stuff for men, but that doesn't mean their marketing will be aimed at women buying for men.

Some adverts these days go on for far too long. They lose the impact of the product they are trying to sell. This ad. is one of them.

Is Gillette trying to cut it's own throat?

[spathiphyllum]

Maybe, Togo
