This Advertising stunt is very clever and unique…
And could be easily adapted to suit many different product offers.

Axe, producers of a shower gel (whatever happened to plain ordinary soap) are renowned for their clever Advertising ideas, here’s a couple just to show you how clever and memorable these people are.

O.K. It’s clever, it certainly grabs your attention…
But the yuk component is so powerful, I suspect your senses would be in such a state of surprise and recoil, your brain would be in no condition to absorb and remember the message.

To graphically show the effects of beach pollution…
Satchi and Satchi collected trash from various beaches, packaged it to look like seafood and displayed it at local farmers’ markets. These pics are from a print run of posters for those who didn’t attend the market.

If you want to learn exactly how to use humor in your Advertising…
You could do far worse than look at what these street people are doing, after all, they are getting direct and instant feed back on exactly what generates results and what does not.
Thank you Brian for the pics.

Here is a great example of how you can burn your message into a potential customers memory in a very powerful way.
These clever advertisers have put the right message in the right place at the right time, and their potential customers will remember the unique benefits of their particular product because the message is cleverly located, dramatic and humorous.

The key to Advertising any products unique qualities is to use photography to clearly show what it can do for its target customers.
So, if you wanted to tell Chefs that you manufacture knives that are made of high quality materials and are extremely sharp…
Well, you judge for yourself, how well this set of advertisements achieves this…



The million dollar question now is…
How can you show how good your product or service is (from your customers perspective) in a photo?

I hate these revolving doors (I once saw a small child get their arm caught in one) But, this is very clever, and could easily be adapted to promote many other forms of business.
It’s also a great way for high traffic buildings to grab a little extra cash by hiring out an unused space.
Maybe, they could use the money they earn to buy a more customer friendly door system.

O.K. Calm down, I’m not that blatantly crass… Well, not always.
Here’s some more great carry bags that will grab more than their fare share of Advertising grunt.
I really do like this stuff, with just a little imagination and no extra cost, each bag quickly becomes a walking billboard for your message.

Oh the joy of it, this really does appeal to my wicked sense of humor…
Using everybody else’s posters, simply add your message in a cheeky but non destructive way.
O.K. sure, you can expect some rather irate calls from the owners and they may even resort to a little payback attention and a smattering of litigious warning letters, but you will have grabbed a whole lot of “street cred” and memorable attention.
Not to mention the fun you will have doing it under the cloak of darkness.
