Need some really cool ways to advertise
Discussion
The more gobsmacking the better really. Already got radio, newspaper and promo cards sorted out.
Is it possible to have a skytorch thing like the Batman logo? Or bluetooth units that drop a message onto every buggers mobile phone in bars or from a flyover as they drive into town?
What about banners from aeroplanes or lighting a dark alleyway with our logo? What happened to that idea someone had to clean areas of the pavement to leave only the logo?
What sort of stuff is possible these days?

It's got to be legal?
Preferably...What were your thoughts? I'm not fly-posting
Or some infiltration of a government building/public monument that will get you in the papers or an attack on the Thames. Depends what you're trying to advertise and where specifically as my London suggestions could be useless

Like you're blue sky thinking though!
Taxi company based in a student City in Kent
Scantily clad ladies/men with mobiles outside the nightclub phoneing taxis for people leaving. Obviously with your company logo/phone number on their outfits.
edit: Suggestion from the Mrs. Just use body paint with the number on the ladies...err...boobies?

Actually... getting a few fitties together for frshers week was a good move - basically cajoling everyone into deleting all the taxi numbers and saving our one for free sweeties edit: Suggestion from the Mrs. Just use body paint with the number on the ladies...err...boobies?

This has been used by a few places in and around Manchester and it is quite effective BUT you can only reach the people who have their Bluetooth connection switched on (obviously!). Err apparently these guys will do you some tight outfits... http://www.gridgirls.biz/

If we can get the number straight into their phone that's even better
with some swearing and offensive comments...If students represent an opportunity then maybe dedicate one car, x nights a month, randomly, to be a special car. The journey is free, you serve bar snacks, maybe offer complimentary hangover cures or bottles of OJ/water or even kebabs (tie up with the local kebab shop). Use that as a focus for your student marketing. Bit of PR required to kickstart the campaign.
Massive posters/banners attached to a scaffolded prominent building are OK - Quite expensive to set up, they are produced on an equally large digital printer. I'm thinking 10MX10M at least.
Similarly, the stuff that dyes the grass at the roadside in a similar way to the sports ground advertising.

Plant local roundabouts with flowers spelling your company name.
If there's a big local park, slip the greens keeper a few bob and get him to mow it into the lawns.
Clean the floor around the local taxi ranks, but so it leaves your number. That should get all the people waiting and getting fed up in the queue looking your way.

Does anyone know anything about either of these? There are several roundabouts and big buildings around - Canterbury Cathedral for one Similarly, the stuff that dyes the grass at the roadside in a similar way to the sports ground advertising.

I can build you a 2D flash driving game in which you have to give rides to hookers and drunks, like crazy taxi (only it'll be crap, compared )
Or leaflets no one will forget. Any caption comp suggestions for a taxi firm
'If only you'd got in the cab with the mrs 3 hours ago...')Or leaflets no one will forget. Any caption comp suggestions for a taxi firm
It'd be quite cool to get the flash game onto a mobile via bluetooth!
