Yeah this is advertising. It's very distinct and clear; done intentionally to stand out amongst other products and be appealing to disinterested consumers.
That's branding.
Advertising would be "best pumpkin pie filling, everyone's choice" on the label. Also if you go to their no frills store its all this.
Right so companies put branding on their products to... not advertise themselves to consumers?
I go by this definition. Marketing is branding and advertisements.
lol no. Branding is not advertising just like getting smacked in the face isn't domestic abuse unless the context is correct.
Beating my children (consensually) to prove packaging with the purpose of attracting attention isn't advertising
