tv commercial

A television advertisement or television commercial (often just commercial or advert (US) or ad (UK) is a span of television programming produced and paid for by an organisation that conveys a message. Advertisement revenue provides a significant portion of the funding for most privately owned television networks. The vast majority of television advertisements today consist of brief advertising spots, ranging in length from a few seconds to several minutes (as well as program-length infomercials). Advertisements of this sort have been used to sell every product imaginable over the years, from household products to goods and services, to political campaigns. The effect of television advertisements upon the viewing public has been so successful and so pervasive that it is considered impossible for a politician to wage a successful election campaign, in the United States, without use of television advertising. In certain countries, France or Japan for instance, political advertisement is forbidden on television.[citation needed]....

100% Q: What is the name of the purse on the tv commercial that you can change the outside cover to match your outfit?
There's a commercial on Tv for a purse that has interchangable covers you can buy.They attach magnetically.The company gives you the purse when you buy the extra covers .They attach to the outside to get a different look without having to change your purse .I amlooking for the name of it or a website or telephone number to buy it.
A:Miche Bags www.getmichebag.com only thing is, you they don't advertise the many covers they offer? I fee certain it will eventually end up where "As Seen on TV" products are sold...so you may want to wait a couple of months before purchasing via the web.

100% Q: How much could I sell a tv commercial idea for?
I have, what I think, is a good idea for a tv commercial. What would be the best way to turn it into cash? Thanks for the answers. I was deliberately vague as I didn't want to give too much away. But I guess I can say that it's a variation on the "Priceless" thing done by Mastercard. How would I go about finding out if my idea is actually worth anything without them hi-jacking my idea?
A:Since you don't mention what the product or company is, it's hard to answer. If it's a big company like Proctor & Gamble, McDonalds, etc. your chances are slim to none, as far as making money goes. They already pay millions to ad agencies to develop campaigns that are always based on very specific marketing criteria. If it's a lesser known product with limited exposure and no ad agency involved, I guess I would submit the idea to the company in writing. And mail a copy to yourself (leaving the envelope unopened) so you will have proof of ownership with a stamped date, in case the company decides to hijack your idea. I'm a creative director at a very large advertising agency...honestly, I have never heard of a company using ideas from the public. Nevertheless, I wish you luck! P.S. If you do sell it...don't count on raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars. :-)
