We are bombarded by advertising each and every day of our lives. This week, #FriFotos theme revolves around that topic. Once again we will be sharing images on Twitter and writing posts on our blog that provide the story behind the pics.
First in a Series of Posts
For those of you not familiar with the forum, it is hosted by OnBoard the Cruise Ship
You would expect to find advertisements when in port, but in this first article, we'll talk about some we found on board our cruise ship. These signs were onboard a Carnival cruise ship, but you might find similar signs regardless of the cruise line.
Advertising Promotions
The first image is advertising services that are performed by the staff on the ship. Throughout your cruise, you'll have the opportunity to have your family portrait taken by the ship's photographers. If you'd like to have a framed remembrance of your cruise, that is possible as well. This sign shows some of the possibilities. The next image is advertising some promotional offers that are available at the casino.
Many of the ads we see on a regular basis advertise services as opposed to products. That doesn't stop just because you are on a ship. You'll see this type of advertising in port as well.
Shopping Savings
Many of the ads we see on a regular basis advertise services as opposed to products. That doesn't stop just because you are on a ship. You'll see this type of advertising in port as well.
If this is your first cruise, you might not be aware that there is shopping onboard the vessel. Yes folks, you don't have to interrupt your shopping when you are at sea. As you can see in this advertising sign, the ship matches prices that you might find in port, which means you don't need to give up your exploration time to buy that bottle of liquor to bring home for your self or your friend watching your house while you are away.
Limited Duration
You will find advertising that may offer deals for embarkation day only. It is definitely to your advantage to pay attention to these signs posted around the ship. Of course, you can ignore them completely, like you do television ads, if you like. That's the beauty about cruising - you are complete control of what you want to do. There will be many choices, but ultimately, you make the final decision on how to spend your time and money throughout the entire cruise vacation.
