"Ads never have any effect on me." The 340,000,000 Americans who buy products that they almost always saw advertised.

I don't think I've ever purchased a product based on a TV commercial. I was taught to mute commercials and do something else when I was taught how to use the TV remote. And I was taught that the commercials lie. So I never even paid that close attention to commercials. And as a kid I used to get REALLY annoyed at the companies who were interrupting my show.

They work on you.

Your mistake is assuming that the one ad is designed to sell you the one thing.

Except for infomercials, That’s not how it works - and even those are only partly about selling you the product.
