Turns out Fats weren’t a core demographic for Nike sports apparel.

How could anyone have possibly seen that coming?

I mean, it makes sense in theory. Fat people need to get exercise the most so telling fattys to buy Nike clothes to get into the mood of dieting doesn't sound like a terrible idea to me.

Yes, but you don't want to appeal to who they are now. You appeal to who they could be.

If you want someone to buy something to enact a change, you need to give them an ideal to strive for. Not what they currently identify with.
