Holding key marketing and advertising positions, women shape the basic promotional appeal of almost every consumer product in America. How did the advertising business go from a handful of women in a man's world to women working in virtually every mass consumer goods industry in America in the space of the twentieth century? Ad Women tells the story of how women have risen to the top of the advertising profession. Juliann Sivulka, a former marketing communications manager and now an advertising educator, describes how, at the beginning of the twentieth century, the recognition of women as primary consumers resulted in the hiring of more women to promote products aimed at the women's market. At that time manufacturers began to emphasize color, fashion, and style, while advertising embraced a new language of persuasion aimed at women consumers. Soon agencies were recruiting an ensemble of businesswomen-copywriters, product designers, merchandisers, fashion and beauty experts, home economists, editors, and publicists. Through close collaboration with manufacturers, mass media, and retailers, they participated in developing strategies to convince women to buy goods and wove their selling messages into women's reading, shopping, housework, and leisure activities. -- From publisher description. 650 0 Women in the advertising industry|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85147608|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Women in marketing|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85147588|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Businesswomen|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2001010801|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Advertising|zUnited States|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009113808 650 0 Women consumers|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010118829|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Social change|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008111171|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Women in the advertising industry.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1178023 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Women in marketing.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1177918 650 7 Businesswomen.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/843013 650 7 Advertising.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/797511 650 7 Women consumers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1177530 650 7 Social change.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1122310 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 776 08 |iOnline version:|aSivulka, Juliann.|tAd women.|dAmherst, N.Y. : Prometheus Books, 2009|w(OCoLC)609206068 856 41 |3Table of contents only|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc /fy0906/2008032726.html 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 505624 994 C0|bRID
