    The purpose of this nike add for shoes is to say that the bold are rewarded. It shows this buy just using a simple sentence and a picture of a guy dunking. It will make others want to be bold because they will think that they will be rewarded.

    This picture is pretty beneficial. It makes you want to buy these shoes, makes you think these "Nike" will make you a better athlete. This makes you think that these shoes can put you in the spotlight.

    I didn't really vote in the popular area, i got into the 7% area. In my mind it doesn't really make me think about anything but being greedy for some reason. And it's basically saying that you'll only get fortune if you buy their stuff (or at least in my mind).

    This add is saying that this brand of basketball shoe is the best, and that you can do so much more in this brand of shoe than any other kind of shoe.

    I think that the ad is helpful in getting people to buy the shoes but once people buy the shoes and the can jump ridiculously high like the man in the picture. They could get upset and blame the shoes. This is because the shoes stated that you will jump high with them on.

    This is trying to get people to buy this brand of shoes. It is saying you can jump very high and dunk when you are wearing this brand of shoe. This add is beneficial to those looking to buy shoes, someone is an appealing picture for people who play basketball and are looking to buy some shoes.

    This is propaganda because it is saying that if you wear these shoes, then you will be able to dunk a basketball. This could be harmful to other shoe brands because people will by this shoe not because of the quality, but because it looks like they can reach their goals if they wear this shoe.

    This is beneficial to the brand Nike because it is saying that there shoes will make you achieve your goal. It is a piece of propaganda because there are no facts that they will actually make you succeed.

    This ad is propaganda because Nike is leading people to believe that if they wear Nike shoes, their athletic performance will be boosted solely based on the shoes. This is beneficial to Nike because they are using powerful images and words to boost their sales.

    This ad is showing that by buying a certain pairs of shoes, you will be able to soar through the air and dunk a basketball. I said that this ad is more harmful than beneficial because it's putting false ideas into people's heads. The company is tricking their customers into buying their shoes.

    This is helpful to Nike because they are basically saying that if you buy there sneaker you will be able to dunk and do all the cool things the athletes who endorse them can do.
