Different Way Of Advertising

Are you looking for new ideas of advertising your services or products?

Using plastic prostitutes on the street, a 27 years old Romanian man, Cristi Birgu, is trying to attract custumers to his garden gnome business.

Birgu has received many complains from neighbors for his way of advertising his business but he is determined to keep the plastic prostitutes on the street.

“So far, my girls have attracted a lot of beeping from truck drivers but not too many customers. Sometimes I am afraid somebody might have an accident, arrested by the view, you know,” said Mr Birgu.

Armless man steals TV

Sounds unbelievable right?

A thief with no arms managed to steal a 24-inch TV in Munich, Germany. He had two accomplices who used clamps to fix the TV to his body.

When the staff noticed that the TV was missing from its stand they looked back at CCTV recordings and saw the armless thief walking out of the store with their TV attached to his body.

“It’s hard to believe that the sight of an armless man walking along with a giant TV clamped to his body did not get anyone’s attention,” said a police spokesman.

Hanging Dummy Billboard

I am all for creative advertising, but even I don´t get this one.

The billboard below has caused outrage in a Chinese city by featuring what appears to be a man hanging from a rope. What looks like a man is actually a mannequin hanging from the top of the billboard.

The advertisement it self is a reference to the global financial crisis and it reads: “It’s better to invest money here than put it into the stock market.”

Creative director behind the ad said that the aim was to catch people’s attention but many people were terrified bacuase they thought it was a real suicide.

After receiving many complaints, the local industry and trade bureau took down the mannequin.
