The Buckster

Ah Buck, we are just so dang proud of you. It’s just brings us to tears (happiness of course) seeing you sit there on your bench as if you were showing off your prized 6-point buck. Hey … wait a minute, 6-point Buck — Buck? Nah, that’s just to easy.

Anyway, let’s get to the creative: WOW, cool mock-plate man! But, what I really liked about this ad is that you refrained from any “selling” and stuck with what clearly gets the phone ringing — your name! I mean, why do an ad if all you’re going to do is sell? It’s all about branding for the buckster. In fact, over here we like to call him, “The Bucking Brander”, and he just gets tickled every time we say it. Hey Buck (Ha!) check out those bushes behind your bench, we’ve hid an envelope with your silver nomination.

Beer and Brats

Oh no you di’int. You had to bring the land of 11,842 lakes and, more importantly, the home of the Real”ad”tor headquarters into the ad, didn’t you? Well Sconi’s, I have to give it to you, get a couple-two-tree Miller Lites in ya and doze creative juices start flowing. They said: you had 3 seconds to grab their attention. You said: Cripes-sake, doze guys don’t know what dere talking ‘bout. They said: keep the URL short. You said: oh, yah, right! If you had chosen your neighbors to the south, you would have gotten gold. Instead, you had to make it personal, and for that you get nut’in. Good day!
