You, Too, Could Be in Advertising // canavarlar

At one point or another, everyone thinks they have a brilliant advertising
idea. The problem is that it's impossible to get that idea to the right ears.
Now a new website will act as the middleman between companies looking
for fresh ideas and would-be advertisers.

Per Hoffman started Adcandy so the public could contribute their original
advertising ideas and possibly even see them used to sell their favorite
products. "People want to participate in all forms of culture, so why not
commercials, for better or for worse?" said Hoffman.

In exchange for their advertising slogans, catch phrases or campaign
ideas, participants could win cash prizes from $50 to $500 and the
bragging rights of seeing their ideas used to sell anything from Coke to
Levi's jeans.
