Guest Sally Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Just wanted to say that, although I'm not available (from Ireland) I think this is a wonderful idea. I don't know what type of advertising is done in the States but there are some fantastic advertisements on UK television at present which hit a number of "markets". - There are about 5 advertisements directly targeted towards younger teenagers ("it's c l not to smoke") - There are teenagers holding photographs of a recently deceased parent being interviewed (real guilt trip for any parent to quit smoking ). - Then there are are the really GRAPHIC ads which follow smoke from the mouth directly into the lung (awful but effective) and shows the damage each puff makes. - My favourite is a surgeon cutting a heart in half that belonged to a smoker...... However, the best campaign I think is the "Don't Give Up Giving Up" I'd be interested in hearing what you have in the States. I have lost my father to lung cancer (smoking was a factor) and now my young brother has it too. I KNOW smoking is not the cause but it definitely is a factor Praying for you all so much, Sally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted September 24, 2003 Author Share Posted September 24, 2003 I have only posted the message about the commercial. Any and all questions will have to be directed at the phone number in the post. I have only cut and pasted the information from a comment email I received from the board.
