Marketing Marvel

"Survey"

A marketing guy was interviewing people on the
street had button-holed a guy and was asking
him a series of questions which went like this. . .

  Which shaving cream do you use?

The gent answered, Baba's, and the guy proceeded
to answer each of the interviewer's following
questions with the same answer, Baba's...

Which aftershave do you use?

Which deodorant do you use?

Which toothpaste do you use?

Which shampoo do you use?

Which soap do you use?

Finally, a bit frustrated, the interviewer asked,

"Ok, tell me, What is this 'Baba'? Is it an international
or foreign company?"

The guy replies. . . .

"No, he's my room-mate!"

"Marketing Marvel"

John, the shopkeeper was dismayed when
a brand new business much like his own
opened up next door to the right, and erected
a huge sign which read:
BEST DEALS

He was horrified when another competitor opened
up on his left side, and announced its arrival with
an even larger sign, reading:
LOWEST PRICES

John was panicked, until he got a terrific idea. He
put the biggest sign of all over his own shop. It
read: MAIN ENTRANCE.
