Totally random, but I can’t help thinking about Burger King. Short story. I am in advertising school as some of you may know, so I check a lot of this stuff out. BK has a new ad campaign. It’s 2 of the same commercials but with just one little difference. One is calling out Wendy’s for having a fried burger and the other is calling out McDonald’s for the same exact reason. BK also goes as far as to claim that their burger is bigger and by golly it even taste better than the competitions. So, I been wondering, does that make BK’s burgers taste any different? If not, I wonder how many customers they lose daily because they called out 2 of their competitors on their fried burgers in a huge ad campaign. Now that I think of it, I wonder if anyone goes to Cali to get their burgers at In ‘N Out instead of BK’s in their home town because of the campaign.
There is also the Verison/AT&T war, currently. What about way back when with the Pepsi challenge where Pepsi called Coke out on their better taste? OMG. Even Nationwide calls out Geico. Nationwide is supposed to be professional. What are they doing going up against their competition in such a flamboyant way? This world is going to go to hell in a hand basket because of our unprofessional ways! I think I am going o start a Facebook Fan page. Help me decide on what I should call it. I was thinking Batlground Rules and everyone else can suck it. Comment and tell me what you think.
