Maybe it is because I am feeling sentimental, maybe it is because I am tired of working on the same 5 different posts for this website (curse of a perfectionist), or maybe it is because props are way past due to my friend Chris over at Monkeybulb.com. I always love reading his take on special advertisement and marketing campaigns. So in the spirit of the holiday season, I bring you not one, but two ad reviews from yours truly as a tribute to Monkeybulb.
First up, Jones’ Big Ass Truck Rental and Storage.

The funny thing is, everyone has to have an old printer stored at their house. I know there is one at mine, maybe I should give him a call later. To further add proclaim to this ads effectiveness, I challenge you to find me anyone who would turn down a drunk sale? After all that, the ad really took it home with the pitch “If you got weed, I’ll store anything offer.” I couldn’t believe my eyes or my ears! Great job, now this ad applies to so many different demographics at once it was almost perfect, you’ve got anyone who’s not dukes of hazard also. To say the least the replay value of this spot was delightful. If only Cox Communication ran this ad as many times as they ran their own shameless self-promotional ads for their cable to which I was already subscribing too, I might still have cable today (but that’s a topic for a later discussion).

Next up, and on a more serious note, This Is Reality, this ad was very well done. I’ve gotten pretty tired of all the “green” marketing that is going on right now. Retail is the worst of it, believe me (again another one of those posts I was telling you about). So the fact that this spot takes a shot at the fabricators of clean coal advertisements reality got me into it. It even made me check out their website, sign up, and write this post to inform you about it too. Well done indeed if it can motivate even me to put this much effort into it. Hopefully it did for you also.Oh and if you are curious about whether or not the website for Jones’ BA Truck Rental & Storage was real or not, you can check it out here too.

At least, I write something on here once a month. Not a good practice for building a user base or community, but then again, I write for a more therapeutic personal purpose than for an anonymous spammers enjoyment. Be prepared though, I just enrolled in Advanced Corporate Finance even though I did not need it. I figured it would be good preparation for a PhD program. I also have a couple drafts waiting for final review before I publish them. The stock markets suck as everyone might already know, so I applied for a couple jobs. Already had a phone interview for one, and will have a face to face in about a week with them.

Made some money on the tables, got some pit bosses business cards, but most importantly, I got a business idea for Vegas. It would be so easily implemented.
