Clever Advertising

March 19th, 2009

I really have to give kudos to many marketers and advertisers out there….there’s more to it than you would believe.  If you want to know more about the ads you see everyday, check out the Gruen Transfer hosted by Wil Anderson (http://www.abc.net.au/tv/gruentransfer/) for not just an informative view but also an entertaining look at the world of advertising.  The Gruen Transfer is on ABC1 Wednesday nights 9pm, right after Spicks and Specks.  For those who missed it, you can check it out on Thursday nights on ABC2 at 8:30pm……go on give it a go!

And on the topic of advertising, there has been a lot of media coverage over the last few days with Pauline Hanson and “those photos” – is it her? Is it not her?  Well in the afternoons in Brisbane, there is a free newspaper that is pretty good for the bottom of the bird cage….until this appeared:

Nice work Nandos…..some very clever (and prompt) advertising

The Nandos ad reminded me (well actually, it reminded Pete, who in turn reminded me)  of the Veet ad used in the USA when Obama was elected president:

veet

Nice work Veet…..another example of advertisers jumping on the bandwagon quickly.  And if I may be frank, I think there’d be very few who wouldn’t praise this ad campaign.

And these are just for your enjoyment…..again, a great campaign from Lynx:
