On Wednesday, September 30, 2009 Starbucks introduced Starbucks Via, new instant coffee in all location across United States. It was supported by massive advertising campaign prior launch. Starbucks expects around 10 million customers to come and try instant coffee for free in 7 500 locations.

Starbucks Via TV ad:

  Starbucks runs ads tryiong to explain that new instant coffee has the same taste like regular one. “We’re so confident that you won’t be able to tell the difference between Starbucks VIA and our brewed coffee, we’re inviting customers into our stores to see if they can tell the difference,” Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz notes. But entire marketing campaign can’t convict some critiques and coffee lovers who think that it could be the biggest failure for the company.

 Canadian charity organisation called Rethink Breast Cancer created video ads to reach teenagers and young crowd and explain that breast cancer is dangeourous for young wioman as well… apparently some people found that commercial is “way to sexy” and represent bad taste.

 I would say, it is the first time I see breast cancer commercial which actually talk with young people. Any other commercial I saw in the past targeted some old ladies and woman after 50 years old. Opinion that breast cancer can hit only older women is wrong, and this commercial show young women that it could be too late to diagnose and cure it.

Guy who owns dollar store called Dollar Bill’s Discount World in New Hampshire record and post crazy videos on YouTube. He runs around his store in wierd clothers, scream prices, mumble about products, and do all kind of crazy stuff. I mean, you must see:

 Maybe he is crazy, but it is actually a great way to create low budget commercials and make people to remember your business. I mean, there are millions dollar stores across New Hampshire and I doubt if any of them can come with any advertising idea.

 I hate to be a party pooper but the most popular voicemail Dimitry the Stud is fake, hoax, staged, and not real! I don’t know how many people already showed me this YouTube video and blog posts… I am tired to tell everyone that the guy who stay behind Dimitri the Stud hoax is James Sears who call himself Dimitri the Lover and run a website with the same name. He lives in Toronto and used to work as psychiatrist but in 1994 he lost his licence. Now James call himself a pick up expert and sell books and advices for guys who want to be successful with women.

 For those who never watched or listened Dimitry the Stud I’ll remind, in 2008 blogs and social media sites posted recordings of the voicemail from a desperate guy name Dimitri who called girl Olga after she gave him her business card in the bar. In the first message Dimitry tells that “women approach him 6 or 7 times a day, but Olga is the one who got unique opportunity to meet him and let romance to begin”, in the second message Dimitry is getting really upset that Olga never called, he set a dead-line to call him back, tells her that she might have passion aggressive disorder, explain that he is a great “catch” who is great in bed. I mean, there are a lot of creeps out there and i guess most girls met guys like this in their life experience. Dimitri the Stud seems realistic, you need to hear: Read more to hear fake voicemail
