5. The TV commercials were the most and
least effective medium for raising AIDS awareness worldwide. There were
extremely effective by raising awareness of the issue, using celebrity
endorsements like Bono, Oprah, and Chris Rock. Bono and Oprah were seen picking
up Red products on Michigan Avenue in Chicago, Chris Rock appeared on Motorola
commercials using the slogan “Use Red, nobody’s dead,” there was also a Red
Room featured at the Grammy awards, and Gap partnered with the campaign and
made merchandise that featured words with (RED) at the end (words such as
inspired, bored, and desired). However, all of this marketing cost a total of
about $100 million and only raised a mere $18 million worldwide.
