Question 23 • GA-Introduction to Business and Technology

Which of the following marketing messages are consumers most likely to trust?

Answer
A
A TV commercial
B
An article about the company in a city newspaper
C
An Internet advertisement
D
A phone conversation with an employee of the company

Explanation

Consumers are generally more likely to trust independent coverage than a message created or delivered by the company. A newspaper article about the company can seem more objective than a TV commercial, an Internet ad, or a sales conversation with an employee, all of which are clearly promotional. So the best answer is an article about the company in a city newspaper.
