Advertising Slogan Trivia
byBrian Rollins

Hold on to your wallet because I’m about to throw some well-honed marketing at you. This week, It’s advertising slogan trivia. I’ll give you the slogan used by a major brand and you have to tell me which brand used it. That’s right, you should have been paying attention to the commercials. And why wouldn’t you, after all the money they spent on delivering these messages to you.
