Ads are just a way of getting their name out there. For the past
couple of years, Mountain Mike (pizza) has been advertising on sports
shows. The name meant nothing to me and I wondered why they were
spending so much money on something I never see. Then a few weeks
ago, we were in a small community about an hour away and what did I
see? Mountain Mikes. We were headed over to meet people for lunch
elsewhere, but if I was just driving along and feeling hungry - who
knows? I might have gone in and ordered a pizza out of pure
curiosity.
