Madison Avenue thinks a tasty approach will give new life to Welch's grape juice. Welch's is taking out full-page print ads in People magazine this month that give readers a chance to sample its grape juice by licking the ad. The front of the advertisement shows a huge bottle of the juice, while the back has a strip that peels up and off, with text that reads: "For a TASTY fact, remove & LICK."
Marketers are excited about the prospects for lickable ads, but also have to deal with the "ick" factor. Since magazines are often passed from reader to reader (think doctors' offices) there is a good chance that saliva could be left on the ad. Readers are supposed to peel off the entire sticker on the Welch's ad before licking, says First Flavor, the company that developed the technology used in the ad. If someone doesn't rip off the whole sticker, First Flavor says, the flap can't reseal, giving people an easy way to know whether the ad has already been licked.
I have to be honest with you, I am not licking any magazine!

Nike Bo Knows 1989- The greatest of the Bo Knows commercials has to be - Bo, You Don't Know Diddley. The idea created by copywriter Jim Riswold came to him while at a local bar wrestling with ideas being thrown at him from patrons of the bar. Bo...Beau Brummell...Bo Derek...and then Bo Diddley, he knew Diddley was the one and then added You Don't Know Diddley and the cast of athletes.
Over the next several weeks, as a consumer and admirer of great advertising I am going to share what I think have been some of the greatest advertising campaigns of all time. My first and favorite of all time: KEEP AMERICA BEAUTIFUL - CRYING INDIAN.

Named "Streams," the new print campaign for Absolut Vodka plays up the all-natural ingredients in the brand's flavored vodkas. In the ads, colorful streams flow by pears, mandarin oranges, peaches, lemons and other featured fruits. Absolut slogan - "True Taste Comes Naturally."
QOOB, USE IT. OR LOSE IT
Qoob is a music channel in Italy and part of the MTV network. These are great ads.
The Wallis Dress To Kill ad campaign has been one of favorites, I haven't seen an ad campaign to take over as my favorite yet so I decided to share two more print and very clever ads from Wallis that first ran in 2006. To see the best of the Wallis Ads visit this post, Wallis Dress To Kill
I don't normally like the spoof or viral ads, but this one I liked....it is a great and even clever ad poking fun at Windows XP. Thanks goes to http://www.adsblog.co.uk/ in the United Kingdom for sharing this with us. They really like their advertising in the UK.

source: dcist.com - The legality of this high flying venture seems dubious at best. First of all, Ron Paul's zealous supporters have set up a for-profit corporation called Liberty Political Advertising LLC to raise money for the blimp in an effort to skirt campaign contribution laws. Individuals are limited by law to giving $2,300 to a presidential campaign, but RonPaulBlimp.com is encouraging people to donate anywhere from $10 to $1 million in support of the blimp advertising campaign.
This is awesome, great ad, amazing execution... brings out the fun and fantasy of playing with Hot Wheels... i love it.
