Advertising is so prominent in American culture, and even the world at large, that this media form becomes reflective of the values and expectations of the nation’s society at large.
The author of this book Bruce Barton was a partner in a successful advertising firm during the 1920’s. This was a time when the industry of advertising was under going some major changes. These changes had a lot to do with a number of factors the first of which being the post war prosperity this meant people had more money than they ever had before. Another one of these factors had to do with the high number of teens who were now attending high school, this proved to be important because it created a whole other market which hadn’t existed before. One more factor was the advances made in transportation and communication, these advances allowed goods, people, and information to travel long distances relatively quickly intern allowing companies to grow large enough to spread their services nationally. Still another important factor was the invention of financing, this allowed people to pay for durable objects (large objects that would last a couple of years) with affordable installments or payments. But the biggest changes were the actual advertising practices themselves, many of which were pioneered by Barton and his associates, and didn’t become norms in advertising until after the release of Bartons book “The Man Nobody Knows” in 1924. This book served not only as a manual on how to advertise more affectively but also as an example of good advertising itself.
Written to inform others on the past 100 years of advertisement, “The Hard Sell” allows us to take a look back at advertising and how it has changed our ways of selling products. Bill Bryson is a “versatile American author of several books on travel, science and literature”, who served as a chancellor of Durham University in England and has received honorary awards Bryson is more than capable of informing readers about The Hard Sell (120). Bryson will introduce the importance of advertisement from an excerpt from his own book Made in America: An Informal History of the English Language in the United States.

Recently, New York Times journalist, Adam Davidson, was asked to be a financial advisor on a big-budget Hollywood film.

We see advertisements all around us. They are on television, in magazines, on the Internet, and plastered up on large billboards everywhere. Ads are nothing new. Many individuals have noticed them all of their lives and have just come to accept them. Advertisers use many subliminal techniques to get the advertisements to work on consumers. Many people don’t realize how effective ads really are. One example is an advertisement for High Definition Television from Samsung. It appears in an issue of Entertainment Weekly, a very popular magazine concerning movies, music, books, and other various media. The magazine would appeal to almost anyone, from a fifteen-year-old movie addict to a sixty-five-year-old soap opera lover. Therefore the ad for the Samsung television will interest a wide array of people. This ad contains many attracting features and uses its words cunningly in order to make its product sound much more exciting and much better than any television would ever be.

...on the journey of this project I didn’t really know all too much and what it took to develop a quality ad. I now realize how much work it takes to produce these ads, and that it not just as simple as taking a picture and putting it in the magazine. These people who do this are professionals and quite crazy for reason, it is a difficult job to get a quality ad that will sell o the consumers. I will never view an ad in the same way that I viewed it before the project. Since I now have an understanding on the work that is put into it, and what types of standards that need to be considered to be quality and appealing to a consumer. I also understand what things need to be considered and addressed when making an ad, such as having an array of bright colors to catch the consumer’s eye, and including something in the photo that will make the ad memorable to the consumer.
‘Creative without strategy is called “art”. Creative with strategy is called ‘advertising’. Creativity grabs attention. People are flooded with millions of ads each day, but screens most of them out. Creativity allows advertisements to get past the filtering process and appeal to the intended audience. (Altstiel & Grow 2012) Advertising agencies nowadays are forced to think outside the box, by looking at the bigger picture and constantly discovering new ideas and ways to grab people’s attention. A successful creative advertisement results from the ability to incorporate strategic concepts in order to draw the line between plain art and advertising. There are no rules, no patterns to creating highly creative advertising. (Lee 2000)
