Language

In Dubai. So I know everyone loves French and as much as I love the language myself, dang, Arabic's language looks so elegant. It's the only language I've seen luxury brands also put in translation on their retail stores. And it even makes Baja Fresh's logo look elegant!

3D Billboards in Taiwan

Interesting new idea to catch attention.

Flyer distribution through signage

In Taiwan, and saw this billboard sign on a poll. It has a jut out shelf for flyers for passerbys, integrated within the sign. A more seamless and less intrusive way to distribute flyers maybe?

Sustainable Reminder

This sleeve actually has a picture of a tree/nature on it to remind consumers about where the product comes from. The text also says: "Helping you to grow a more sustainable community." Because we all play a part in saving our community and our world. It's easy to forget, nor is it something we as consumers don't think as much about, but during this period in time, it's more and more important to think about.

Billboard ad in Taiwan

Light up animation catches the eye of the passerby :)

Togo's mobile advertising

Hard to miss where they placed this. :)

Public restrooms

To improve customer experience, I wonder, has anyone ever thought to put more stalls in the women's restroom/make the women's restroom bigger than the men's restroom?

Shaved ice in Taiwan

Mango shaved ice is a huge thing in Taiwan. Here is a fan as a gift for customers as part of a way to welcome tourists, visitors and a great brand image, experience, awareness and loyalty booster. Giving a gift from a brand to me shows promise and builds a relationship like in any relationship. And who doesn't feel good/happy receiving a gift?

Movie Theater Ad placements in Taiwan

At a movie theater in Taiwan, on the right is an ad for a magazine. They decided to open this space to advertise other products. Maybe an opportunity for other theaters as well.

Marketing in Asian Magazines again

This magazine called FG that I got in Taiwan included a whole lipstick that they featured in it. Possibly their own lipstick since it has their name on it? :) Sometimes these magazines include samples, even bigger products that don't look like samples at all. Not in every magazine or the same samples for the same magazine either.

Magazine free samples

Asian fashion magazines as well as European fashion magazines in my experience tend to include giveaways such as a pencil pouch, tote bag or nail polish shown in front of the magazine and included inside. This one shown might have been a giveaway or a sample from an Asian magazine. I personally would be swayed to purchase a magazine if it gave you stuff. :)

Hugo Boss luxury

This is the tissue paper that came with my purchase today from Hugo Boss. Here you can see the amount of attention and effort put into the logo printing, which is consistent with the luxury image that this brand represents. Well done in my opinion!

Asian pad colors

They are such light and pretty colors, whereas the pad colors in the US are very bright and not as subtle. How come the US pad colors aren't as subtle as I would assume we would like to have them be?
