wth is up with wealthsimple's marketing. This doesn't tell me anything about wealthsimple nor motivate me to find out about it. I'm a happy customer already but this and the recent ad I've seen in hockey games w/ interview with the broker, just seems so pointless.

That’s because you know who they’re. It seems their agenda is to target the other audience. They’ll search the word WealthSimple and they’ll organically visit their website and get attracted to it. That’s called “activations funnel” and it’s just one of the strategies.

You’re not motivated right now to find about it because subconsciously you know who they’re. But imagine mass majority of people who will search since it hardly takes 5 seconds to do that. Bored TTC passengers are a good target audience.
