Here's a different take on offline marketing. Adam Pacitti claims he spent his last £500 on a billboard. His product? Adam Pacitti.

    That's fantastic. I wonder if any copycats will attempt the same thing.

      He could have made some Local Lead Gen campaigns with that, what a fool.

        LOL. Do your fancy local campaigns end up on a billboard? He's a damn genius.

    This is just a PR stunt this is the same guy that spent his last £500 last year looking for a girlfriend.

    Hopefully it works for him. I wonder why he doesn't just go on more interviews, but I don't know the market over there. I wish him good luck, maybe he should get himself marketed all over online.

    I saw him on tv the other day, he said he's received thousands of job offers, personally I think he did it to gain publicity, this guy has no business working for somebody else, way too creative and way too smart.

    If you can get 4 million unique visitors to a website, why look for a job?

    Maybe he needs a laser-targeted-traffic WSO. His search for a bride ended up with him
    getting pranked by two guys in Amsterdam.

    ----------------------

    I think I might paraphrase his current billboard for building mobile sites. Then, I'll release a WSO: "How I got 1291 Local Business Leads in Seven Days".

    ----------------------

    Seriously, I've seen this work by wearing a sandwich board sign and walking around in a downtown area with resume copies available.

    That is a really good idea.

    Edit: Just visited the site.
    Site looks good. Http://EmployAdam.com
    Watched the video...and it doesn't look bad either.
    It does look like a publicity stunt, but he got over 85k views since Dec. 30

    Not bad.....
