No archetypal advertising symbol has had the total impact of lasted longer than the Marlboro Man. The was the result of month of trying to come up with the right image to capture the youth market fancy. The weathered looking cowboy riding off in to the sunset-a perfect symbol of independence and individualistic rebellion. Originally a miner, a truck driver, the cowboy was chosen because it as an archetypal image of thousand of westerns facts and folklore had reinforced: “the ultimate man’s and woman man”. Reality: The most powerful ad ideas are nonverbal and take and take the form of statements with visual qualities based on archetypes. The true meaning lies too deep for words. The enduring quality of the image took the brand from seventh position to the first in the world; a position which it has retained for 40 years. In Nigeria, the cowboy is black, in Hong Kong he is a ranch owner, in Australia he is in the outback, but the Malborow has around the world the same look, the same personality and the same profound archetypal appeal.

What to understand: Somewhere in every product are the seeds of a drama which best expresses that product’s values to the consumer finding and staging that inherent drama of the product is the creative person's most important task.

Consumers are not only buying products because they are useful to them but also because they confirm their self-image. Adolph Bastian (1826-1900) who first proposed that myths all around the world seem to be built from the same “elementary ideas” The hero with a thousand faces demonstrates that all series are expression of the same story patterns, which Mr. Campbell need the heroes journey, open the “mono-myth”. This should like a simple idea, but it suggests incredible ramifications. Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung (1875-1961) named those elementary ideas “Archetypes”, which he believes to be the building blocks not only of the unconscious mind, but of a collective unconscious. In the words, Jung believed that everyone is the world is born with the same basic subconscious model of what a hero is, or a mentor or a “guest” and that’s why people who don’t even speak the same langage can enjoy the same stories.
