Well okay then. I apologise for being inelegant. I promise never comment on your blog, read it or discuss it with anyone I know ever. I think the best way to work in social media is to make snarky comments on your blog with the people who are responding to your site. Seriously moderate your blog comments if you don’t like what you’re hearing. For a company to crack the sads and write a post defending itself against a few anonymous people (possibly competitors) makes you look like you are overly sensitive and potentially like they have struck a nerve. Anyway all the best with trying to get people to pay you to do whatever it is you do. I’m not sure what it is exactly as it just sounds like jargon to me and you don’t have any case examples. Good luck being warriors. ROFL.

Thanks for all your inelegant comments. Please try and keep to adult conversation and avoid anonymity.
1. The chalk we used is friendly and will be gone after a few showers or with some foot traffic help.
2. If you feel so strongly about the legality of this why not do more than a slant comment on our blog? Or will this be too hard?
3. Try to read more about us and what we do. It’s very easy to read mumbrella, join the mob and write a negative comment.

Hi Billy C, in short “no.” We are not the people doing anything around North Carlton. Happy smudging.

I’m not sure if you are the people doing the ads on the street around north Carlton. So far I’ve seen a number of different ones. Something about Portugasms which I assume is a lame Nandos ad which foolishly and awkwardly tries to link sex and food, an add for Latrobe Uni and Optimism which is which actually nicely designed and would have been good if it wasn’t an ad for a play. Would you please let me know who is doing the distribution so I can make sure I don’t use them anymore for poster work. I’ve already stopped using Media Tree for Sydney Distro. This visual garbage on the street is such a lame attempt to appropriate hipster culture. Maybe you could put on some skinny black jeans and advertise in Franky or 3000 instead. Anyway if you see them smudged the day after they get put down that is due to a concerted effort on my behalf to stop you polluting public space with badly designed ads. Thanks!

It seems the flux capacitor might need some tuning as your hip and cool marketing seems to be from the 1990’s.

What’s next in your arsenal, SMS database marketing?

Guys – do you seriously think by using strenciling that you are bringing media into the 21st century?

I hope you offer your clients something a bit more relevant and fresh (well, more than a new namwe anyway!).
