    Nothing gets me less interested in spending money on a brand than having it constantly advertised to me.

    I dunno, maybe I got some gene that inverses the reaction I’m supposed to have, because repeated advertising supposedly works really well.

      i think for me it’s just that i get angry at the brand if they try to shove it down my throat. like, the arrogance, it feels a lot like violation of consent, if i already made my mind up that i don’t like their product, being advertised again feels like something that should make me angry.

      I think the problem is that you think that, while a majority of people think little, if at all. Dumb people and kids for example.

      There are enough people who just consume media without reflecting for ads to work, or ads would simply disappear. Companies know how to use statistics.
