With regards to DeBeers, as an example of the power of
advertising, Bob Garfield of Advertising Age once pointed out:

“Before the DeBeers mining syndicate informed us ‘A Diamond
is Forever,’ associating itself with eternal romance, the diamond
solitaire as the standard token of betrothal did not exist. Now,
thanks to the simple audacity of the advertising proposition, the
diamond engagement ring is de rigueur virtually worldwide, and
the diamond by far the precious gemstone of choice.”

The above is quite a trip down memory lane for many of us. My
favorite growing up were the commercials for The Marlboro
Man, with that great music and the sweeping western vistas. We
later learned, though, that the most ubiquitous of the actors
playing the character died himself of lung cancer.
