Budweiser is well known for the use of humor in its ad campaigns for Bud Light beer. Based on the use of humor in advertising for beer, does Budweiser believe that beer is a high-involvement or low-involvement purchase for most consumers? Explain your answer using the elaboration likelihood model. (Chapter 6)

Low involvement. The major reason for the advertisement is not so that there will be high involvement buyer, with information about the product (beer) to be produced deeply to form strong attitudes, but the advertisement is basically for entertainment and also so that good feeling can be associated about the advert and product (beer). In fact the major disadvantage about the use of humour in advert is that people can remember the advert and forget the brand or product been advertised.
