Dubai Consumer Mirror: Pushing the Envelope

Pushing the Envelope

I know that event organizers do their best to attract quality trade visitors and keep those pesky advertising sales executives and annoying marketing assistants as far away as possible.

But don't you think this particular event organizer is taking it a bit too far?

Yeah, but this one has gone too far. The company has shot themselves in the foot. Some jokes take a macabre turn everywhere else, but I can't be sure of Dubai.

LOL @ this one…

MD, I disagree… I think it’s just nifty! Depending on what kind of company the guy was promoting; that is… I’m sure it got a lot of attention… and attention is marketing… and at the end of the day, marketing is a way of life and never stops.

And SS… LOL! Probably right on the head with that one!

YaY! For the disabled blogger catering!

where do u think you're going Prof?

do u think u can disable comments and get away with it?

tut tut

By BuJ, at May 14, 2006 at 2:24 PM
Yes...disabling the comments on your last post was really effective. Now there is absolutely no way of asking why you are not going to be blogging for a while.
