I pay attention to marketing, advertising etc. I took a couple of electives in marketing way back in teh colleges and since we started our practice, it's something we have to deal with on almost a weekly basis. When watching commercials, I'll look for the hook that makes you watch and draws you to the product. And people remembering the product or service is the one and only goal.
We've gone through, and are still pretty much going through a phase of the woman coming off as the smart and clever one while the man plays the buffoon. Another trend, which has been going on for a while and is just plain good marketing sense 101, is that any time you see a group of people, they try and cover the gamut of ethnicity. A Corona gets it's lime and at this beautiful sunset party at the beach house, the white girl, black guy, Asian babe....everyone has a bottle and they're the happiest people on earth. Simple, effective and you target your marketing to everyone. It's common sense.
You're seeing more gays in advertising now. I believe it's Zales that's been featuring gay couples a lot in their ads and you see more and more pop up in advertising in general. I get it. But one trend I can't figure out in marketing is mixed couples. Over the last year plus, advertisers have been using mixed couples in their marketing at an almost unbelievable rate. Last night, I watched 3 commercials in a row with mixed couples. It's not a handful of companies, it's across the board.
Of course, I have to give a disclaimer here. I'll make it simple. I don't give a shit. You can date, live with or marry anybody you want as far as I'm concerned. It's your life. Happy for you. Whatev!! But, I'm trying to figure out the purpose here. Is this some market that's been sorely neglected or overlooked? Has there been an outcry from the mixed couple community about advertisers not being "inclusive" enough? Is there even a mixed couple community that I missed along the way?

No greater marketing than a catchy jingle.

Ended up down a youtube rabbit hole, this kind of fits in to this thread so I'll go with it.
I remember some of these commercials and toys. WHAM-O always reminded me of Irwin Mainway, Mainway Toys

Creepy music from whoever put the video together is annoying but commercials are funny.

Sung by a gay, mixed couple.

If it was once taboo, they are forcing it down your throat.
Have you seen the disgusting Sephora commercial that SEC network keeps playing on a continuous loop!
-

Or, maybe, they're showing that with a little common sense and decency that shit should never have been taboo in the first place.

I for one would love to see a gay couple in Carey & Hamner commercials. To me it would show they actually care.

Yeah. Dressing up little boys as girls is the norm for you people!
Does your boyfriend feel the same way?

Logical Leaps from CCTAU: Mixed couples = cross-dressing children.
C'mon, big guy, you're so close to the mathematical proof that idiots love to throw out: Homosexuality---->pedophilia--->beastiality! SLIPPERY SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you not seen the Sephora commercial I refferrerd to in one of the above posts? Or are you so enamored with defending the perceived persecuted that its all OK with you.
It's OK if your boyfriend is black. We just don't want to be force fed that "every" couple is mixed these days. And that is the gist of the post. Everything that was once different is now being force fed to us as the norm. You knew that. You just think you are a great SJW. You are not.

I haven't seen the commercial and it wasn't germane to the discussion that you and I were having re: mixed race couples.

The gotdamn Germans got nothing to do with it.

Actually only YOU were having that discussion. It had morphed into a discussion on things that we once did not see a lot of on TV, now being force fed as the norm.

Again, I was looking at it strictly from a trends in marketing standpoint. I'm kind of a geek in that area because it's interesting to me to see what advertisers do and use to reach people. Like I said, mixed couples don't bother me in any way, shape or form. It's just that marketing in general has made a huge and obvious move in that direction. I'm guessing that when the concept for the commercial doesn't call for a large group of people, they can get the diversity point across using only a couple.

Pretty much everything George Corley Wallace predicted has come to pass.
That's all I'm saying about that.

So you're going to stop using gay couples in your lawyer commercials and go to straight mixed couples?

If I could just find a mixed, gay couple, I'd be golden.

The real answer that nobody wants to hear is that the marketing trends are set so as to not offend the not so silent millienials and social justice warriors. For the most part, those of us who are bookfaces challenged will complain amongst ourselves or maybe in a forum like this when we feel our ideals/policies/thoughts are being ignored, but we are afraid to swim in the deep twitter waters.
They also know that we are to old fat and lazy to riot and loot their stores.

Okay, here's a bit of marketing that just flat out bugs the shipth out of me. Every single ad for a prescription medication. First off, no matter what the drug is, the ad is 10 seconds telling you how wonderful life will be if you take it, and the remaining 50 seconds telling you all the possible wicked side effects. Now, I get that part, which is so lawyers like me can't claim my client didn't know that Boobitrol could cause sickle cell anemia.
But it's like, "Do you have trouble sleeping? Then ask your doctor about Snoozalax. Side effects could include nausea, vomiting, deep red ass rash, lymphoma, the hives, gout, pancreatitis, shingles, hypothermia and even death." But by damn, you'll sleep better.
And why is it that the only time you can take any medication is when the affliction is "moderate to severe"? If you have moderate to severe congestive heart failure, ask your doctor about aortagon. Here's my favorite that they've been adding to all the side effects. "Don't use aortagon if you are allergic to aortagon." What the.....?

My favorites on those is a lot of times the side effects listed are those you are taking the drug for. Having trouble sleeping take Druziness. Side effects include nausea, vomiting, rash, insomnia and in some rare cases death.

Reviving the old marketing thread because someone is getting punched in the temple if I have to see that Allsnake Safe Drivers commercial with the little girl watching the jello mold somebody left on top of the car. The only spot on TV more often is for The Mirror. I don't complain too much because there's some mighty hot, young ass jumping around.
And there's some nice looking girls on there too.

Oh and all the car maker Christmas commercials where they take a traditional Xmas song and change the words around to sell their stupid cars...comes off sounding more like a cheap jingle sung by some xanax’d sugared up quartet of millennials - during “the December of memories and snowflakes to remember special exclusive event saleâ€. But hurry. It’ll be over soon.
