Note that this is not appearing as an advert – which it really is – but as a news story in the Daily Record. It tinges Irn Bru as the drink of youth and winners. It doesn’t hurt that this 13 year old is being referred to as a beautiful mermaid in some sections of the media. This is the kind of product association that manufacturers dream of.

It’s why so many American athletes said for a while in any after match interview where they had won -“I’m going to Disneyworld!” The connection was made in the mind of the viewer between product and success.
