Just found a little scrap of paper where I’d written a bunch of wacky marketing ideas when I was bored once at a conference. They’re kind of fun!
NB I take no responsibility if you do any of these (but I do want to see the photos!)

• Host a gondola race down the Thames

• Give out free branded brolleys when raining
• Have group of cheerleaders that perform around London
• Challenge competitors to a duel
• Wear hats that blow coloured bubbles
• Create grassed areas and beaches
• Change your name by deed pole
• ‘Pimpup’ your car, house, hair, suit etc into something wildly extravagant
• Fly the biggest kite ever in Hyde Park
• World record juggle, unicycle, pogo hop, leapfrog
• Hold a massive food fight where everyone is invited
• Drive a tank in company colours
• Hold a ferret race
• Make a message using lights in disused buildings
• Tattoo your head
