    11. Misinterpretation For instance, a pharmaceutical company would be engaging in deceptive advertising if it advertised that consumers should buy a particular drug it manufactures because the drug has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). No drug can be sold in the U.S. unless it has been approved by FDA. Therefore the claim, while literally true, is deceptive because it creates the false impression that drugs produced by others may not have been approved by FDA.

    12. Unfinished Claims When these claims are made, they might often leave you asking yourself questions about it. Be the first to know CNN advertisement slogan. The first to know what?!

    13. Uniqueness Claims These claims advertised the difference of the product amongst others, but this does not necessarily mean that the product is better than the rest.

    14. Stating Facts This basically claims nothing and shows no real advantage over any other product. Rheingold, the natural beer made from grains and water Rheingold Beer Advertisement Slogan. All beers are made from these ingredients.

    15. So What Claims These claims are almost like making factual statements, but it claims things that competing claims do not make or offer more of something in order to exceed the consumers normal expectations. Tropicana has orange juices that now have extra calcium Do you really need more calcium than what is already provided in orange juice?

    16. Vague Claims A vague claim states things that are unclear, and not able to be verified. The best man can get Gillette advertisement slogan. There is no way to verify this!!!

    17. Testimonial Claims A lot of companies will use famous people to advertise their product hoping to get consumers to buy the product and to believe the claim is based on being a celebrities fan. You too can have a body like mine Charles Atlas advertisement slogan.

    18. Questionable Statistics Using claims that have not been verified. On the Centrum Website we find Higher levels* of Vitamins B6 and B12 to support health Then at the bottom of the page : *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. They put this on the bottom of the page knowing that some consumers will not bother to go that far down on the page after skimming at the information that is given.

    19. Smarter Consumer Claims Making the person think that they are better for choosing whatever is being claimed. Choosy moms choose Jiff Jiff advertisement slogan. "The best tires in the world have Goodyear written all over them. -Goodyear tires advertising slogan.
