Hey everyone,
When I scroll through the News Feed on facebook, I am getting ads from the Valvoline facebook page since I liked their page a couple of years ago. Who else has seen the Valvoline ads where they show and talk about "cheap" oil versus Valvoline oil? It must be a recent marketing push they decided to try, they have multiple videos and ads about it.
The reason I bring this up is because in the videos, they have a black bottle with a generic label on it saying Motor Oil. It is not even a real label in the sense that there is no brand name, it looks like a label that could printed with a household printer. Valvoline uses it as the example of "cheap" oil.
Looking at it, the black bottles look like Mobil Delvac 1300 Super bottles. I guess that bugs me. Is Valvoline trying to get a dig at Mobil? Having ads about "cheap" oil, so, when people who see the ads and are standing in the store next time to buy some oil, if they see the Mobil Delvac bottles, they might think it is "cheap" oil?
Maybe that isn't Valvoline intention, but, why use what looks like the Mobil Delvac bottles as examples of "cheap" oil?
Was curious if anyone else has seen the ads and thought the same thing.
