NAB helps fight unfair banking…uh oh!

Australian bank, NAB ( National Australia Bank) has recently been using these mini billboards with the catch phrase of: “Sign up to fight unfair banking”.

NAB's Sign up to fight unfair banking campaign

Above: The original sign. NAB was asking for trouble when they put this up. Too many negative words.

 

However, I suspect the sign below is what really comes to mind for most people when signing up to a new bank…

Daily habit of successful people

Financial ReviewI’m highly sceptical, but if they say so.

Australia’s premier business newspaper, Financial Review has taken to advertising on bus stand billboards with the slogan of:

 ”The daily habit of successful people“.

I suspect this has been adapted from the Stephen R. Covey best seller book:  The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.

I wish them success with their old fashioned paper and ink publication. Interestingly, there is no mention of their website on the advert, but for those interested, here it is:

Dymo label those false teeth

dymo label your false teeth

Never mix up your false teeth again with Dymo labels

Dymo gets the message across with this “his” and “hers” labelled false teeth haha! Could also double as a sign for dental health and keeping your own teeth I guess.

For Fox Sake!

Join what and why? What is this all about?

You may have seen these billboards and shopping centre signs about the place recently and just wonder what it’s all about.

Well, it’s not exactly a cable TV network if you think that, but look carefully and see the “Fernwood” logo. Fernwood is in fact a chain of Australian women’s health and fitness clubs and the “For fox sake…” is all part of the “Find your inner fox” campaign.

Which marketing genius came up with this idea?

Mac All Night

Hungry for a Big Mac at 5am in the morning? Want to grab a burger on the way home from a late night out?

Well forget it.

Read the fine print. It says only at participating drive thru stores only.

Pepsi Hits the Refresh Button

You may have noticed Pepsi has a new look recently. With that, Pepsi Australia has a new summer promotion happening right across Aussie cities along with HitRefresh billboards appearing all over the place.

On selected days, Pepsi will place these plastic “buttons” around popular parts of each city waiting to be found. Whoever finds one, wins $250 in the form of a Pepsi Refresh card. If you find a Pepsi button please don’t throw it  in the bin, ok.

Google has recently put up these billboards promoting the Google Chrome web browser. What’s going on here? Doesn’t Chrome get enough publicity on the Google main search page.

Oops I’m Pregnant

On dear. One day you wake up to find yourself pregnant. Panic stations! But what to do? This large pro life billboard suggests you should sit back, relax and enjoy the ride rather than do something hasty. Or at least phone that number.

Poor Joseph. God was a hard act to follow.

Here’s something you wouldn’t expect to see from a church. But st matthew-in-the-city Anglican church is really pushing the envelope with this controversial Christmas billboard. But goto St Matthew’s website (see below)and you’ll find out why. St Matthew’s is a progressive Christian church and is somewhat liberal in their views, if not bordering on radical. Like they say..Don’t expect prayer groups or boring bible study groups or even a pimply faced youth group. Sunday school? Forget it. They don’t even use a capital S in st matthew!!

But what you’ll get is…Umm.. I’m not sure what to expect!
