Agreed, darn those marketers and their competence!
In all seriousness though, I agree, rarely does celebrity endorsement work on me (unless of course they pick the perfect celebrity
). I find the more subtle or elegant marketing campaigns have a far greater effect on me.
Just thought I'd mention another strategy beats use a lot, along with a lot of other electronic gadgets, product placement. It seems so pointless and trivial. I'm confident this has no effect on me whatsoever (at least on a conscious level it doesn't). I doubt it works on anyone really, yet it's becoming more and more prominent. Well I guess they know what they're doing, their numbers speak for themselves.
Nobody is completely immune to marketing. Today's marketers are pretty good.
But still, anything endorsed directly by pretty much any "celebrity" always kind of makes me think twice about it. I mean, before I even knew the first thing about the Beats, just seeing "Beats by Dr. Dre" completely turned me off.
