“Subourbon area” and other marketing bloopers on the rocks

(Business Marketing) When creating your company’s marketing, be it an email or a campaign, errors happen and every now and then, we’re there to showcase them for amusement.

The Blooper Scooper is back, folks, and what a hilarious week it was! The MLS and local real estate ads were rife with goofs and marketing bloopers. Thanks to Jane Peters and Patrick Martin from Los Angeles for their side-splitting contributions.

Read ’em and weep:

 All -tered State

“New copboards thruout” (Let me guess – they can store a lot of donuts?)

“Access to amnesties -need membership” (Aerial leaflets dropped by mystery red-white-and-blue planes seen flying over Moscow.)

“Small Jim included” (I think they prefer to be called “little people.”)

“Visit beautiful Fleur de Flys”  (Hence the maggots in your hair.)

“Seller dead – can’t be repaired” (Ergo the term dead, wiz-kid.)

All -But-The-Kitchen-Sink

“New sick in kitchen” (I see you’ve experienced one of my dinner parties.)

“Check out my pot” (I just thought you were packing a lift raft in your pants..)

“Jets removed from spa” (Who annihilated them  – the Patriots?)

“Stacked Unise” (Ah yes… Unise from Silicone Valley.)

“Mucis throughout” (Said Julius Caesar as he entered  Et Tu Gagatorium.)

All -Fired Up

“Harry won’t last” (Well, now that there’s Viagra he might…)

“Extrerior repairs maid” ( Can she repair your spelling?)

“Fooundation is sipping” (I’m sipping, too, but I can spell even when I’m dunk. Uh, drunk.)

“Beautiful subourbon area” (That’s how I lovingly refer to my shot glass.)

“Gentile wear” (Sign in back alcove of Morie’s Haberdashery and Herring Emporium.)

All -Time Best:

“This is a hard on to find” (And here I thought you were just happy to see me!)

That’s it for this week, folks. Remember: Spell well and sell!

Written By

I wear several hats: My mink fedora real estate hat belongs to Sotheby’s International Realty on the world famous Sunset Strip. I’M not world famous, but I've garnered a few Top Producer credits along the way. I also wear a coonskin writer's cap with an arrow through it, having written a few novels and screenplays and scored a few awards there, too. (The arrow was from a tasteless critic.) My sequined turban is my thespian hat for my roles on stage, and in film and television, Dahling. You can check me out in all my infamy at LinkedIn, LAhomesite.com, SherlockOfHomes, IMDB or you can shoot arrows at my head via email. I can take it.
