Dude hanging on back of bus - Just a darn good advertisement.
This is another example of using an optical illusion to work to your advantage as an advertiser. People are presented with thousands of advertising messages every day, and to stand out, you need something that is so interesting that people want to learn more, even it’s a boring subject.
Well this picture shows exactly that! It looks like a guy is hanging on the back of the bus! The Bus says “Hanging on ’til pay day?’ and has some type of mannequin stuck on the back of the bus, or perhaps it is painted on there with the correct shadows? You be the judge.
Either way, it stand out in your mind, and you’ll be thinking about this the next day, which is exactly what the advertiser intended. Couldn’t this marketing concept be used somewhere else? Sure it could, as long as people don’t get to accustomed to this type of thing!
What do you think of this? Make a comment below!
