Advertising with Teddy Bears
It wasn’t until the 1980’s that teddy bears became advertising for different companies. Used in commercials, television shows, storybooks, and cartoons, teddy bears began helping sell products to consumers. Commercial teddy bears even became selling products on their own. When people saw how cute they were people wanted to buy them.
IN 1992 the Coca cola bears started promoting Coca Cola. The first commercial was the “Northern Lights” showed an animated polar bear who went the to movies and ended the night drinking a Coke while watching the Northern Lights. Soon these special bears were being sold everywhere.
The Snuggle bear teddy bears have been around since 1983 when they first started floating down in the commercials. You’ll find Snuggles on every product sold by the company today. Snuggle bears of all sizes have been sold since then.
By 2000 companies started noticing that those cute little teddies bears really helped sell products. Charmin introduced the “Call of Nature” commercials with their own Charmin bear, adding a bear cub in 2001. Now there is a whole bear family in the commercials for toilet paper.
Who can resist a teddy bear, especially when he’s selling a product? Kids of all ages will want that particular teddy bear.
