The
Secret Sales Pitch
An Overview of Subliminal Advertising

How media manipulates the unconscious;
How to use subliminal techniques to enhance
advertising and art.

A live, multi-media presentation

Since the 1950s, optical illusions have been secretly embedded in mass media in order to manipulate the public unconsciously. These subliminal images are extremely provocative, and involve nightmarish monsters as well as many forms of erotica. In addition, pictures with subliminal meanings understood only on an unconscious level have secretly aroused viewers’ innermost fears and fantasies.

August Bullock is an attorney who presents the evidence of subliminal advertising as though he were addressing a jury.

"Bullock's show is startling...The overall impact is convincing."--Steve Hart, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

"Bullock's prove-it-to-the-jury approach to explaining the psychology of subliminals presents a powerful case for those who may be skeptical about the effectiveness of such tactics." --Damon Orion, Santa Cruz Good Times

You will never watch a commercial, make a sales presentation, or look in the mirror the same way again.
