Daily Nooz: Ad Agency Hires Prostitutes for Talk-Radio StuntThis article talked about a stunt which was part of a controversial ad campaign created by the Zig ad agency for CFRB 1010; it is their latest ploy to get people talking about issues in Toronto.
Basically they paid hookers the regular customer rate to hold up signs asking if prostitution should be legal. I thought the idea was pretty creative but had some questions as to the logistics.
Where did they find the prostitutes and how did they approach them with the idea? Were they found in broad daylight somehow? Or did members of the marketing agency risk arrest when pulling up next to the prostitutes in the middle of the night to discuss arrangements:
Policeman:
Sir, your ID please.
Zig Marketing Grunt:
But I was just trying to get them to help out with a marketing stunt.
Policeman:
A likely story, Sir...but why would anyone intentionally generate those leads?
Maybe Zig just answered a bunch of massage therapist ads on craigslist. Anyway how did they ensure the prostitutes wouldn't take money and run home to (pimp) daddy?
