Replyhongkiat June 10th, 2009
Wow, no one actually like the Wonderbra’s Facebook ad? That’s one of my fav!
Nikons are very funny, IMO :-)
ReplyAmbitionLab June 10th, 2009
These are indeed clever, funny, and smart ads. But as advertisements, they’re probably not very functional. If you just look at the ad itself and don’t read the commentary in the blog, it’s not at all obvious what most of them are advertising (unless you look very closely). And they’re funny, but where’s the persuasion?
Anyway, great fun. Terrible waste of money for the client.
…but I enjoyed them nevertheless. : )
Replyeddie June 10th, 2009
very nice collection~~just thank you! thank you!
ReplyEmily June 11th, 2009
I love these. I have been reading up on new marketing tips and they have all told me that flashy TV comericals and mag ads are going out of fashion, but I think these are great. I’m glad there are still some creative minds at work out there.

This is just so incredible. The level of creativity is really amazing and some of the ideas are just splendid! The ‘WWF – When you leave the light on, you’re not the only one who pays’ is superb. I like the subtlety of the ad.

ReplyCall Center Services July 8th, 2009
The WWF ad is a pleasant surprise. Wasn’t really expecting something as squeaky-clean as WWF to use borderline naughty messages in their campaign ads, but at the same time it made me laugh and think about the question it’s asking me. :)
