It’s all about marketing and brand recognition. Pepsi has brand recognition, people recognize the product on it’s own.

Start up products like OxyClean have to build brand recognition. Those products initially started as only sold though TV ads to cut the costs of distribution at the retail level. After they had some success, they were able to get retailers to take a chance on stocking the product because now they have a track record. The “as seen on TV” line is used to help people associate the product with the TV campaign.

So, yes, many of the products work very well. It’s a matter of selling enough to make the product profitable.

Answer by Trapz
It is probably a dud. Most of them are anyway. Advertisments just make them ideal to buy, but when you buy the products, you feel like wrangling the neck of the salesperson you bought the product from.
