Do the "Chicken." | 9.19.2005














In an age of innovative marketing, these two sites (Burger King's subservient chicken, sithsense and Tazo Tea) do a great job of getting whatever mindshare is left at the end of people's day. These types of sites are few and far between as they do a better job of creating brand awareness than they do of actually selling product. Special thanks to Michele L. for bringing the Tazo site to my attention.

Tazo has great marketing, but not so fabulous tea; try Stash,
double bergamot earl grey black tea for good flavor from a bag tea

The Tazo site really stands out. It grabbed my attention and tempts me to try their products, even though "teacup" thinks they aren't so fabulous.

A run down looking chicken in a garter belt following my every command, while funny, kinda turns me off from the food. Makes me relate BK food to old, used-up poultry prostitutes. Not very appealing. At least the creepy king in their TV ads is clean and shiny. Although the chicken is probably closer to reality for their food.
