     [ "Advert Irritation" ]

    2: 2 The belief that an advert made for the United States’ will be successful in the United Kingdom. The reasoning being that because UK customers understand the language in which the advert is made, they’ll identify with the product and everything else will fall into place. The advert may be well presented, but the customers are irritated by it either because the concept is alien or the presenter is unfamiliar.


     [ "Advert Irritation" ]

    3: The worst possible scenario is incorrect targeting and too frequent exposure. This happened with an advert for Lenor fabric softener screened in the UK during 201 Originally made for the US market, it featured a minor American actress, Amy Sidaris, who was unknown in the UK; Sidaris’ manner was very much “in your face” which didn’t go down well with the more reserved UK customer base. A typical reaction of people watching was “who does this blonde bimbo with the big bristols and the weird accent think she is telling me how to do my washing?” This irritated reaction to the advert means that the customer is less likely to buy the product.
