The Wanker Ad

Image via Adfreak
His name is Rich Will Wanket. He works in real estate and he is responsible for the advertisement above, published in July in the local edition of The Onion. The man featured in the ad is the man who created it. He has an extremely unique name and he decided to publish an advertisement that uses his name’s masturbation innuendoes to gain recognition for his company.

The ad got him a lot of recognition but his real estate company didn’t appreciate it and promptly fired him.  The real estate company stated that, “It is not a message reflective our brand.”

Let me ask you guys something. We all know that sex sells and it usually garners attention for an advertisement but does it really sell the product that it’s promoting?

Let me know what you guys think?

Best,
-A.B.
