Well, I can’t help but chuckle at all the attention the Paris Hilton Carls Jr. commercial has gotten. It’s a feeding frenzy out there and I think that Carls Jr. is the winner cashing in as others whine!
I heard a discussion on the radio where a woman was saying that Carl’s Jr. is superserving guys at the expense of losing young women. That’s rubbish!
I was walking my dog and there were 2 teen girls sitting with a guy on a park bench and the girls asked the guy:
“Did you see the Carl’s Jr. commercial with Paris Hilton?”
The guy responded no and the girls attacked him saying how could you not see it, “It’s so hot!”
As I walked away I chuckled to myself because young babes like the 2 I just overheard worship Paris Hilton and the guys want to bone Paris Hilton… what a winning move for Carl’s Jr.!!!
Only people that it may negatively impact are the religous fanatics and fuddy duddy conservatives who are offended by Paris Hilton doing her sexy routine in her bathing suit in a commercial… Well, guess what - Carl’s Jr. will only be COOLER if those folks stay the hell out of the restaurants! It will also act in favor of the shrewd advertiser.
So I say HAT’S OFF to the m,arketing peeps at Carl’s Jr. You’ve managed to get a lot o attention and that should translate into increased sales. Sex sells and your marketing was spot on!
Wanna investigate the Carl’s Jr. Paris Hilton commercial???
