Win!

Normally I call these fails but a "Ninja-Messiah throwing nails of death" is PURE WIN!

Saw this on Jesus Needs New PR

Marketing Fail?

Somehow I think more people are going to read the billboard that has the word "Boobie" on it....... Either way I find the Bible-belted brand of piping hot guilt served up KJV style to be pretty funny!

Marketing Fail of the Day

(This is in my purse right next to my Miracle Healing Water)

The Devil's in the Phone Booth..... wait is that Betty White?

Betty White and crew singing about the devil being in the phone booth.... perhaps this is why phone booths are now scarce?

Marketing Fail of The Day

Is it me or does he look like Neo from the matrix's dad? You'd better come to the chapel or he will beat you down and drag your a** in there!

Marketing Fail of The Day

 

The fact of the matter is that I kinda wanna kick these people in the head....... in love of course 8-)

Need Jammies?

OMG. Protect your children and get them beat up all in one shot!

Benny Hinn + Star Wars = EPIC!

Benny just went from way lame to wicked awesome in my book!

(I know I posted this on FB recently but it's so freaking awesome I had to give it it's own place in blogging immortality. Thanks Joe Wisterman!)

Marketing Fail!

Ummmmm.................. yeah.

How to Not Fail at Church Marketing 102

Over the next few weeks and months, I would like to explore why it is that churches and Christian organizations struggle so much in the areas of marketing and cultural relevance. I know the reason vary a lot, so I'll just cover a few. To start with let's examine the pitfall of PERCEPTION.

If you chat with people who are responsible for a marketing fail, you will find they have no idea. They don't think it's irrelevant or poorly designed, and they can't see why I think that way. I have to admit at first I thought these people were just complete morons, but now I realize that is not the case. The problem is perception.

These people either have no idea who their audience is and/or they have no idea what is appealing to them. The worst is those who fail to realize that there is an audience outside the 'Christian Bubble' and those are the people who need to be appealed to the most. How can you avoid this pitfall?

Marketing Fail of the Day

(Bumper stickers King James style- I want one that says, "Thou art a douche")

UPDATE: I posted this in 2009 and got an incredible amount of flack for it. Somehow it's ok for me to say other less pretty words but the moment I jokingly call someone a douche people start chasing me with pitchforks. For the record- I still think this is funny......... I guess I didn't learn my lesson the first time :-P

Marketing Fail of the Day

(really, what is the point of this. If you have one of these, don't tell me, because I will never stop mocking you. I think even Jesus would have an issue with this thing)

Marketing Fail of the Day

This is what happens when you teach Grandma how to use publisher....... not a good idea!
I'll say it once more: If you have to use clip art, you should NOT be making it.

Marketing Fail of the Day

Yes He does, but I don't think He planned on having one of the Knights who say Ni tell me about it. What's next? Peng? Neee-Wom? Ekke Ekke Ekke Ekke Ptang Zoo Boing Zow Zing?
(if you don't know British comedy this fail makes no sense to you, sorry)

Marketing Fail of the Day

Jesus will make your boo-boo's all better..... seriously though, what is our obsession with putting Jesus's face on everything from band-aids to frying pans?

Marketing Fail of the Day

Is it me or does Jesus look a bit like a pedophile?

Marketing Fail of the Day

(Can I picket Westboro Baptist instead?)
P.S.- this is an actual press release from them. I found it on a secular new site.
Dear Westboro: thanks for completely misrepresenting Christ and all His peeps to an already critical world. You suck!

Marketing Fail of the Day

You see, I always say that Walmart is the devil. This just proves my point :)

Marketing Fail of the Day

What!? A bowl of loaves and fish? Personally I would like to see the a Revelation Jesus with fire in his eyes and a sword in his hand, a white horse, ya know the all that. Now that says Jesus is here to kick butt and take names!

2009- A Year in Fail

Here are some of my favorite fails in 2009. They're not all marketing but they are all freakin' funny!

5. Star Wars is the Devil- Website Fail. Here we seem many misguided people who have waaaaaay too much time on their hands










4. Kanye West- I don't really like I need to explain this one. He was already douchy, but this year he edged out Jon Gosselin and Tiger Woods for the title of Douche King.




3. Adam Lambert- He went from American Idol to a gay burlesque show in a matter of months. So much potential but he's chosen to let his sexuality overshadow his natural talent- fail!









2. Penis-Shaped VeggieTales Cookies (via JesusNeedsNewPR) uh- it speaks for itself.







1. The Jesus Tree- this nearly ruined my Christmas by making it into Easter.
