Which of the following is not described as a form of advertising in the material?

• A. Institutional advertising
• B. Specific (or product) advertising
• C. Blind advertising
• D. Social media advertising

Answer: (D)

Advertising forms described in the material fall into three categories: institutional advertising, which focuses on the insurer’s image and goodwill rather than selling a specific policy; specific (or product) advertising, which promotes a particular policy or coverage and highlights its benefits; and blind advertising, where the sponsor’s identity isn’t disclosed. Social media advertising, while common today, isn’t described in that material’s framework. Because the material groups advertising into institutional, product, and blind forms, social media advertising isn’t listed as one of the described forms. The other two categories and blind advertising fit the material’s described forms, so they’re consistent with what the material covers.
