Be more dog - a failing commercial strategy? - Page 2

Anonymous · ‎09-12-2013

I'm not sure I believe this!

A lot of money (well more than I will ever earn in a lifetime!) has been spent on the 'be more dog' campaign.

A BRILLIANT advert...however,

I thought that the idea of advertising was to advertise (silly me :(). The ad has been pulled from youtube for 'rights infringement'.

May I cordially suggest that there is more 'advertising' available for FREE on youtube than the many pound notes you throw at the TV companies? Or am I being naive? Or are O2?

This really has the potential to go viral and become an everyday saying...e.g..You can't do that (for some ridiculous reason)!....Cool answer....Be more dog!

Where is the support marketing? Most guys I know would love a 'Be more dog' T shirt to show that they are radical and eschew the tedium of tradition and self-indulgence for the blue skies of independence and cameradery.

02...you have devised a BRILLIANT advertising line...and now seem to want to throw away the opportunity by mediocrity, indolence, ignorance and a spectacular inability to follow-through ...

Don't waste the opportunity...don't waste the money already invested...GO FOR IT!

All I can say is....BE MORE DOG!

I've read the OP's thread a number of times I can only deduce they were the ones who illegally posted the commercial on You Tube and are miffed that O2 had it removed from their channel....?

I think you could be right, the post is worded a little strangely.

Thought they could make a few quid out of the number of plays, that won't work!!!

That was my thinking too, bit I thought I'd let people draw their own assumptions from my post...
