Back in the late 90s, I worked as a marketing director in a large accounting firm in Dallas. Our ‘big thing’ was doing things differently than other firms. I’ll never forget the day that the bookie (that’s the partner that everyone regards as the scholar in the firm) and I planned out this entire marketing idea around creating a video game for the firm. Our marketing genius surrounded creating a viral video game similar to the game, Frogger. In our version, we would have a taxpayer that had a goal to get across a swarm of cars to deliver his tax return to the post office. There would be all kinds of excuses printed on the cars just for laughs and such. In a little under 10 minutes, our creative gizmos churned out a good video that probably would have attracted scads of publicity.
We never did it. J
But that doesn’t mean you couldn’t.
