Marquis Jet to Air Ads Created by Trumps’ ‘Apprentice’ Contesants

In last week’s episode of Donald Trump’s reality show, “The Apprentice” the men and women’s teams competed against each other to come up with an ad campaign for Marquis Jet. Donny Deutsch, acting in typical big brand advertiser mode (“oh, direct mail doesn’t work”), chose the female team’s submission which featured phallic symbols of Marquis Jet aircraft. While Marquis Jet passed on those, the private jet company, in an strange “contrived reality becomes actual reality” moment, will air a TV spot created by the women this week on KVBA-TV in Aspen and Vail Colorado spending $100,000 over the next month.

Cornell researcher Vanessa Bohns has spent years studying why people agree to requests they’d rather decline, and her research consistently finds that people dramatically overestimate the social cost of saying no, which means most of the exhaustion of over-committing gets paid for a consequence that was never really on the table
