Peyton Manning! (ad journal 6)

These are some of my favorite Peyton Manning commercials!!!!!

This week I choose to talk about the numerous commercials featuring Indianapolis Colts quarter back Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning has appeared in a variety of television commercials. I cannot turn the television on without seeing Peyton Manning’s face! He is in ads for companies like Gatorade, MasterCard, Direct TV, ESPN ads, Sony, Sprint and various NFL commercials. Peyton Manning is a marketable entity and these companies have surely realized this. Not only is he one of the best players in the NFL, but he also has an awesome personality that comes out in these commercials. I’m sure not all athletes are as comfortable poking fun at them selves. He has a down to earth likeability about him. Even though he is a talented football player it doesn’t seem like he has let his fame get to his head. Manning is the perfect choice for endorsements because of his, which seems real, humble demeanor. I will have to admit the advertisers and people in marketing have truly got the know how. They can really drive someone to go for whatever they are trying to sell. Whether it is a sports drink or satellite service. In my case these Peyton Manning commercials drove me to choose a new favorite football team to root for. I am the biggest Colts fan based on my love for the Peyton Manning commercials. Seeing Manning’s face every two minutes has given the Colts a new fan. So I started out as just a Peyton Manning fan which led me to cheer on the Colts. So not only does Sony sell more TV’s and Sprint sells more phones but the Indianapolis Colts get new fans and in turn make more money for them selves.
