SectionDJambo Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I would imagine that the “partners” at John Lewis will be interested to see if their management spend another few million £s on a Christmas advert when their bonus was wiped out this year, after years of reducing drastically. Who could have thought, years ago, that a department store chain like them could possibly find themselves in the financial position they are in now.

The whole advert is just the equivalent of one of those youtube videos where people film themselves doing good deeds to get likes and fame. Just do it and no need to advertise (not meaning foster carers). And the song is absolutely awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It maybe does promote that, but the main object of the ad is to promote John Lewis and to make them seem like a caring, giving business, all to increase profits, imo.

It's a,sair yin for the IT team that runs their marketing! To keep it on topic, not seen a John Lewis advert in years. The way people get sucked into associating consumer brands with Christmas (I see Coca-Cola has already got a mention) is ridiculous... and the JL songs are invariably shite! I heard what this one was, so looked it up on Spotify, deary me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
