Billboard advertising has been around for decades. It is safe to say that they are no longer as effective as they used to be. Watching some new advertising techniques appear has made me realize that the memorable ads are the ones that really interact with life itself and are connecting to us in an emotional way.
I’ve a compiled a small list of the most striking ads of the last 6 months.
1. HUNGER AND THIRST: Magazine on a bottle
This could be how we get drinks for free in the future.
Have a coke. Have a smile.
2. SUPRISE! Peephole Pizza Guy
Nice alternative to the stacks of flyers we all have
3. PATIENCE & CURIOSITY – Conveyor belt ads
I’m sure you’ll want to see the entire belt before you leave the store
4. PLAYFULNESS – Wonderbra magazine ad
Have a feel of what a wonderbra would look like
5. CLEVERNESS – Fun shopping bags
There are tons like these.
All of them play on either (1) how they interact with the person
or (2) how the bag interacts with the print

I also enjoy creative advertising execution. Doesn’t necessarily translate into more sales, but nothing wrong admiring creative thinking at work.

Those are great! I’m likely to remember them simply because I’ve never seen them done before. Hey, there’s an idea! Come up with an innovative advertising gimmick just so you’ll get it featured on a bunch of blogs. Even a really stupid but new idea would probably get some attention. Like they say, there’s no such thing as bad publicity.

I’ve seen the first one over in Australia, where I’m currently studying at. and I must tell you, not many people actually noticed that there was advertising material awaiting to be peeled away by them when they were given the bottles. (=

Yes your honor, I intend to prove that my wife would still be alive if the peephole on our door had not been obscured by an advertisement.

some are a bit stupid, but the pizza one is funny

I like the conveyor belt idea at least check-out will be interesting…
October 25, 2006 at 1:37 pm
[...] Every once in a while, I stop and reflect on how every advertisement seems to have been done before by somebody else. That there’s nothing new, or refreshing. Nothing really catchy. Well, now, somebody has had a few bright ideas. The real problem is now that somebody else actually took them seriously. [...]

I love he conveyor belt idea, advertising is partly, or even primarily about subliminal messages, letting your product seep in to the consumers subconscious, and i have a problem today in that i have a client in need of a fresh idea, a whole new advertising model for the internet, and i have no idea where to go with it!
December 19, 2008 at 5:58 pm
i have seen these ad’s , its attention catching i have developed some advertisements also in context to not only idea but whole story
December 31, 2008 at 7:07 am
