PCCW EYE TVC


Just don't know why a big brand/company would come up with a TVC like this. Tongue-in-cheek kind of humour would not do any good to the brand image of PCCW, a leader in telecommunications. A leader should advertise like a leader. This TVC lasts for 1'20" and media must cost a fortune. The question has been why it didn't invest more for a better production instead. Or it shouldn't have invested any more money in promoting this EYE service. As I talked about it in my previous post, it's quite a valueless service to most people. We are all using internet. Why should we use fixed-line phone multimedia service ?

As I know that the promotion of the EYE is the main campaign in year of 2008 of pccw marketing.
It seems that pccw will ignore the traditional landline and focus on eye multimeida in the coming future. I believe that the product and service of the eye multimedia is not a necessaries for ordinary people in Hong Kong but only targeting to middle-class.
As like as the slogan of the eye creating a quality of life, pccw as if advocate a new type of life by launching the eye product and service.However, i wonder, is it really suitable or match the taste of Hong Kong people? only producing service and creating slogan would spread the spirit of new type of good life among in Hong Kong?

Giordano's frog

One student asked me why Giordano re-uses its frog logo from ages ago. I said I know don't know. Really ! Giordano is a value-for-money brand. If it prints its logo onto the T-shirts and jeans, be it the frog or anything that says "Giordano", will sales increase ? Probably not. Giordano is a brand you wear but you don't want to admit. It's not a brand like Nike or LV that can uplift your image after all. So if it puts the frog back onto its product, there may be adverse effect on its sales. I haven't visited its store at the time of writing but according to its website, it hasn't added back the frog to its products. I wouldn't do that either. So what is the point of having the frog back in its print and advertising materials ? To remind us of its good old days ?

HKET fan page

Ask yourself as a FB user or a user of any social media : under what circumstances would you share a page, a video or any news ? Either you find it useful or funny for others to enjoy. So in this case, if you don't find the HKET page useful, you just won't share it. Would such lucky draw boost the number of people sharing the page ? Some people may be attracted but I suspect most of us won't really bother. Try paying people to become a fan of your page ? You will need to pay more. LOL
