And it doesn't enter the minds of a midlevel chain restaurant owner to leave a dessert picture book at the table to increase the average check size. And it doesn't enter the minds of the people at Consumer Cellular to show youngish active retirees engaging in aspirational activities in the hopes of making their target market think Consumer Cellular is for young, active retirees.

Marketing professionals are paid to have things like this enter their minds. The pictures don't accidentally, magically wind up on the site.
