PENGUIN POLOS

You are preparing yourself to go to work and you want to wear something nice for your daily activities, but you cant find something nice to impress your boss?

For people who like to wear something classy with a really stylish touch, nowadays this is possible , we can put something posh style to our selves with a classy kick.This is thanks to one of my favorite brands around the world, Penguin Munsingwear , Minneapolis-based Munsingwear – an underwear and military supply company – ironically became the touchstone of suburban sport with the introduction of the first iconic golf shirt to America – an ORIGINAL PENGUIN®. The now famous ORIGINAL PENGUIN logo has an interesting story behind it. As history tells us, one of Munsingwear’s salesmen spotted a flock of penguins in the window of a New York taxidermist – and on what seems like a lark, bought one of the stuffed birds. And before long, the "Pete" the penguin became the official mascot and logo of golf shirts. Its first shirt – the 1955, was an instant golf classic, first to feature an "action gusset" or a ribbed slice of fabric on the underarm to avoid rips during even the most enthusiastic golf swing.

An ORIGINAL PENGUIN® by Munsingwear became a staple among the masters of suburban leisure well into the 1980s – worn by the likes of Arnold Palmer, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby and Richard Nixon. In 2003, an ORIGINAL PENGUIN® was recreated by a group of people who love great style and smart clothing. Today's style makers (you) have evolved this legend and made it your very own. Thank you. We are proud to design collections for people with such great intellect, style and humor.

In some of the old post i have showed to you some really kick ass brands for t-shirts, this time i have the pleasure to introduce you this brand that rock out. Here they are some of the newest models for polos , so you can check them out.

IN AN ABSOLUT TAXI

How many times we have seen promotions with out any sense of creativy? I bet a lot!
Promotion is a term with a lot of meanings given by the marketing books,in fact there is this new wave including in promotion which is call Below The Line. To clarify this new term in advertising /promotion , im going to quote the core meaning.
Below the line promotion: All other promotion. Much of this is intended to be subtle enough that the consumer is unaware that promotion is taking place. E.g. sponsorship, product placement, endorsements, sales promotion, merchandising, direct mail, personal selling, public relations, trade shows.

I'm such a hard core fan of fast car, who wouldn't it? Porsche is one of favorite ones,in fact. Well one ad agency in Eastern Europe hire more than 10 porsches to continue with this Absolut campaign. The copy relies the same " In an absolut world". Basically the cars where taking random persons around the city offering the service as a taxi. Amazing huh? Apparently this strategy work out pretty well with the campaign.
Its not like the newest and innovative campaign but i think its working really good and raising awareness around the world.

UNDERCOVER MARKETING

In this time of several changes around business environment , so many organization try to maximize their profits in every single way. We are facing a time where innovation and creativity its a must in this surreal reality of profits. That's one of main reason i wanted to show you this incredible campaign developed in one of my favourite places around the world, im talking about Quebec. This place is state that embrace several thought and cultures because as u know, the population in Quebec is mostly French persons. Any way, advertisers are always looking to place several products in places that are new to the eye of the consumers. This new spots can create a leverage or a difference among the competence. This time we can see that Touche( Quebecois Ad Agency) gave a proposition to those organizations that have milk as a products. The strategy is pretty much to place products (milk) in fridge that are in furniture stores or departmental stores. I think this strategy will work really effective because you take by surprise the consumers and you have an exclusive place to promote your product. Also, it will be an amazing proposition to those executive account manager inside of the milk organization, of course its a new and innovative way of do advertising.
