Campfire Marketing Game Show Day 9 - Results!
Today’s questions involved the sorta viral “Puppet Agency” and were as follows;
1. How many hours do you think it took these guys to decide that they weren’t going to use real puppets for a show called “Puppet Agency?”
2. If the work done for this show was billed to a client, how much would it cost?
3. Blue Sky Advertising, who created the videos, states that the Web installments underlined how some agencies become puppets that don’t recognize problems and deliver “ridiculous ideas that waste time because they didn’t check with the client.” Does this ring true or was it just a gimmick to gain attention that is no where near as well thought out and executed as a marketing game show?
Highly Targeted: 1. Well, that has more of a ring to it than Doll Agency which some people might confuse with that awful feline-themed reality TV show.
2. Probably less than the change ole Frank’s got stashed in his collectible Shrek cup from McDonald’s. Which leads me to…
3. Clearly these guys don’t have enough client billable work or else they wouldn’t have time to play with dolls.
Daphne the 5 year old: Oh I like puppets….You big fat liar, these are dolls! Why are they yelling? Are they daddy’s bosses?
Homeless Frank: You made me walk up the stairs to look at this? I don’t understand you people. You say I gotta work for my beer but then you make me look at this g*ddamn stupid bullsh*t. What kinda jobs do you people have? I can’t believe you get paid for this crap.
We also had a mystery player named Matt who stopped by!
Matt 1. 13 focus groups in New Jersey
2. Real costs: $7.00, Billable cost $700,000
3. That answer was crapped out by planning in a powerpoint document long after the the thing was shot.
And on that happy note, we’ll sign off on week 2 of the Campfire Marketing Game Show. Be sure to check back in Monday morning for much more of the same!
