    Marketing Fail

    Can you believe that this was the official logo for the 1973 Catholic Church’s Archdiocesan Youth Commission ? (Thanks Kiwiblog)



    Any other marketing fails out there?

    I remember seeing a guy being interviewed on TV in England a number of years ago who had a very successful business selling costume jewellery.

    His statement "I can't believe that people pay money for this junk" was a classicmoment.

    Needless to say, within a matter of days he was looking for a new business.

    I think its highly appropriate, given recent revelations as to what was going on around that time...

    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)
