Bait and Switch Video Graphics
2007-12-21 23:29:00 Vic was kind enough to share with us a bait and switch advertising technique recently in his article "Bait and Switch on Steroids". This technique uses a fake video graphic with a compelling image to generate a significant click-thru rate to a target sales page. I decided to create a few example graphics that could be used with this techniq6 Zoom(s)
Bait and Switch Video Graphics
2007-12-21 18:17:00 Vic at Blogger Unleashed described an advertising tactic he called Bait and Switch on Steroids that uses fake video ad to generate traffic. Since he mentioned me in the post, I thought I'd help out by creating a few fake video images as examples of the technique. What are your opinions on this slightly underhanded marketing technique?

Is this Bait and Switch?
2007-12-18 14:53:00 I guess the bigger a company gets the more it resembles our little fella to the left. Well Verizon has not learned a darn thing from their experience with the NY AG office over the meaning of the word UNLIMITED. It appears now they don’t know how to tell the difference between $99 and ...

Might ?Sweeny Todd? Take Cake For Biggest ?Bait-and-Switch Scheme? in Movie
2007-12-10 22:08:00 As ?Sweeney Todd? continues to capture all sorts of different kinds of buzz, one that particularly caught my eye on Monday came from the pen of Chicago Sun-Times reporter Lewis Lazare.Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman in ?SweenyTodd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street?.Photo credit: IMDbHe asks if its marketing will give patrons a haircut and says unsuspecting fans might sing another tune. Plus, the best line of all:From what we know about the movie from its marketing strategy to date and from a small body of critics and VIPs who have seen the film (we have not), this ?Sweeney Todd? also might be remembered for being the subject of one of the biggest bait-and-switch marketing schemes in movie history.[This] bait and switch ... became an imperative to ensure the film generates an opening weekend box-office figure substantial enough to suggest ?blockbuster? to the moviegoing public.Lazare is ultimately questioning if the film?s actually for ?slasher fans? or if it screams ?Sondheim musical?....
Circuit City?s Black Friday Bait and Switch or Just a Poorly Timed Price Ch
2007-11-23 18:24:00 I bought a computer from Circuit City in 1994 and returned it soon after. Since then, I’ve not really shopped there much. They didn’t burn me at the time or anything, but I just found better deals, etc. at other places. Today, they actually made me decide to never go there again ...

Israeli Plays Bait and Switch on the West Bank
2007-10-10 16:44:00 Yesterday the London Times On-Line reported that Israeli Deputy Prime Minister said Israel is willing to hand over Arab east Jerusalem to the Palestinians as part of a new peace initiative. Today, we see that was an empty pledge because Israel is stealing more Arab land outside E. Jerusalem. The Israelis aren't interested in peace without subjugating the Palestinians. This is a big win for Hamas. They can tell those loyal to Fatah that Abu Masen can't bring them a just peace. The Daily Star Israel has ordered the confiscation of Arab land outside East Jerusalem, officials said Tuesday, reviving fears that the Occupied West Bank could be split in two and challenging peace overtures. The appropriation orders come with Israelis and Palestinians preparing for a US-sponsored peace summit widely expected near Washington next month, and were immediately criticized by Arab authorities. Hassan Abed Rabbo at the Palestinian Local Government Ministry said the late September order cover...
Democrats In Congress To Pull “Bait And Switch” On American Wor
2007-05-13 05:37:00 Whoda thunk it - anti-labor “Big Biz Dems”? But it appears there may be more than enough of them in the Halls of Congress to effect some major mayhem for workers and the environment if their “secret Bush deal” (pointed out by David Sirota) becomes written in stone… From The Sirota Blog: K Street vs. Middle America: Battle Lines Being Drawn In Fight Over Dems’ Secret Trade Deal With Bush Another long day as the reverberations continue to intensify after yesterday’s press conference announcing a secret “free” trade deal between a handful of senior Democrats and the Bush administration. …” (Snip!) “… Already, the New York Times has reported that at least half of all House Democrats may immediately oppose the deal because it seems to fly in the face of the Election 2006 mandate against lobbyist-written trade policy. …” (Snip!) “… DEAL MAKES SURE TO PREVENT UNIONS FROM HAVING SAME...
American Idol: Bait and Switch on Charity Show
2007-04-26 20:13:00 by Elaine Liner Raising money for charities dedicated to helping the poor, sick and downtrodden in Africa and the USA is a good thing. Lying to viewers while doing it is not. This week's American Idol: Idol Gives Back special was an awkward combination of telethon and talent show. The two-hour episode Wednesday night both gaveth and tooketh away. Between the endless and mostly pointless drop-ins by celebrities such as Jack Black, Seal and Celine Dion, and the clips of Ryan Seacrest and Simon Cowell hiking over mountains of garbage in parts of Africa they never clearly identified, Seacrest kept hinting slyly that the voting this week would lead to a "shocking" result.

Sheryl Crow Another Bait and Switch
2007-04-22 16:34:00 Â David Schussler Sheryl Crownies need to wake up. Just another example of mis-use of celebrity, Sheryl Crow is stumping the country to drum up attention to global warming.
