An individual that will purchase based on national brand recognition can be quite different then a consumer that will seek out "local" solutions...

The danger of marketing...everyone "thinks" they are a advertising/marketing guru.
that's funny, I could have sworn I was agreeing with you. Also, even the companies mentioned had to start somewhere, I doubt if it was with that one, prime time ad, more likely they used your suggestion of buying multiple, cheaper ads
