Nike Unknown ETH/316 Date Unknown Nike Nike is one of the most powerful companies in the world spreading the signature trademark swoosh symbol In Greek mythology, “Nike was a winged goddess or spirit of victory, both in battle and peaceful competition”. (theoi.com, n.d.) This is not a bad name to choose for a company who has lured some of the most influential sports figures of our time to endorse their products. Nike has faced many ethical problems such as employing people in sweat shops for extremely low wages. Nike needs to be in a state of urgency to retrieve the global support it needs to sustain the success of their apparel empire. Nike’s products are so heavily marketed globally that it is hard to believe children working in sweatshops are producing the famous swoosh worn by so many individuals.
I believe this is an effective ad because it gets its main point, that those who wear Jordan Brand shoes are hard-working and driven individuals, to the audience easily, keeping them entertained with action packed sports sequences. It also uses music to build up the excitement, and the continuity of the “slap” sound shows that the athletes are persistent and hard working.

Dick’s Sporting Good’s motif is to become America’s sporting superstore. Their idea is to bring that fearless athlete, equipped outdoorsman, or even bring that freak out of a gym enthusiast, but especially for athletes to bring out that inner-spark and stand by their motto of “ Start every season at Dick’s.” Therefore, this upcoming sporting superstore is the ideal setting for an ordinary athlete, an outdoor enthusiast, or even a gym rat, due to their aggressive advertising, enthusiastic employees, wide variety of sporting goods, and state of the art merchandise. The store and its employees strive to bring out an enthusiasm that will appeal to a crowd of people old or young, male or female, and who love sports and stay active, or just love exercising. However, not any employee is selected, Dick’s strives for employees that are preferably young and have a passion for sports or staying active, but if not young they desire for an individual with warm enthusiasm and goals to be great in life. Also, Dick’s strives to be the best, and by doing so they require there employees to complete 20 hours of training before they officially begin working.
I choose the commercial “Best Buy: Ozzy vs. Bieber” for my analysis mainly because I am a Justin Bieber fan, but also because I found this advertisement creative and amusing. Best Buy created this message to promote their new program the “buy back program” which allows people to stay with the latest technology, “cost effectively”. Best buy’s “buy back” program will give costumers a portion of their money back for “old” technology they have previously purchased from the store with the intent to then lead costumers to the newer item. It has become clear that all messages are constructed with a pre-notation. Ozzy Osbourne was the icon of his day with a career spanning over forty years.

Reebok’s market share is a distant third in the footwear industry at 11.2%. Customers wear the brand because it’s worn by players and not by the brand that sponsors Nike.
