Comment on The longer I look, the more confused I get. What is this marketing?

It’s not about wanting to buy it. It’s about recognizing the logo and trusting it when you see it.

Quick without cheating by looking at the image, what does the product logo look like?

If you don’t know, that means they successfully bypassed your conscious mind while presenting it. Bypassing the conscious mind, ie your attention, it allows them to introduce elements that are stored in your mind separately from the disjointed/unpleasant ad experience.

So when you come across this product in the future, it won’t be “this is that brand with the ugly ad”. It will be “this is that brand I recognize”.
