Clif Dickens,一名来自美国田纳西州那什维尔(田纳西州首府)的平面设计师,无意之间创建了一个名为the Honest Slogans的博客,根据公司的产品和服务,以“诚实”重新诠释公司标志。这一想法源自一个在他和朋友间广为流传的梗——每次他要可口可乐的时候,服务员总是会问:要不您试试百事?
2011年他在博客上发布了经过重新设计的百事可乐标志,没想到the Honest Slogans 自此开始便一发不可收拾。Dickens强调他的作品“只供娱乐”,他希望他讽刺的品牌将这些博客当做“半开玩笑的”,但是有时候仍然因为调侃过度而摊上些麻烦。
我挑出一些最新增加的有趣的Honest Slogans的博客内容,大家且看且乐,莫放心上。
Amazon: "Priming us to never leave the house."
AXE: "MAKES ALL THE WOMEN FLOCK…AWAY FROM YOU."
Beetle: "Girl Car."

Sprite: "Liquid skittles."
Starbuck: "We serve you decaf if you're rude."
Taco Bell: "Also open when you're sober."

后记:即便是广告圈内人士,也不一定能记得住这些大牌们原来的slogan,相比那些美好的话(niu)语(bi),Honest Slogans 反而是更好地说出了消费者们的心声。且不说企业们能不能接受这些抹黑,转换角度从自黑的角度来调侃也不失为一种营销方式,只要让人记住了,你就赢了。
