If your Cheetos aren't crunchy....

cheeto sign


Just when you think you have seen it all,  some clever someone comes up with another advertising idea.

 

As we were spending time in one of our favorite markets yesterday we rounded a corner and came face to face with the sign in the photo.

 

As it happens we both have a serious weakness for Cheetos.  But thankfully we don't eat them very often since they are really somewhat questionable as to their content.

 

Luckily we had had a Cheeto snack earlier in the day.  So the sign was really a chuckle to us!

 

Without having had our recent fix we could have been a serious danger as we attempted to find some Cheetos.

 

Although it is doubtful that any of us would mistake a Cheeto for a banana,  it makes for an interesting mental visual.

 

The experience also challenged us to come up with more creative ads.

 

It is our hope that it did the same for you!

If your house hasn't sold maybe it's because you listed it with a banana...just brainstorming...just kidding :)

I have not seen that advertising in our area, however it is clever indeed.

So, I guess I am in the minority, I don't think it is a good ad.

Sure, it caught your attention, but you already eat them.

Would it attract new customers?

I prefer the bananna and it replenishes the potassium.

Had to smile at this one.  It's true... Indeed it's a full time job just staying on top of the ever changing challenges of marketing.

Some real estate professionals do need to work on their advertisements.  Too much of the same old stuff in the advertisements.

Cute, and thanks for sharing. I haven't seen this advertisement yet. Good luck on moving to Colorado. I love the Dolores area. I use to live in Rico and Telluride and know the Dolores area pretty well.
