Guerilla CGM

Passcost1This is a great example of consumer-generated marketing on a billboard near the Toronto office.

"Before" is the official Stella Artois billboard created by their brand agency.  "After" is CGM telling the truth about Shell – the truth pervailed for 43 hours at King and Spadina before the "Brand Police" replaced it.

    I’m guessing Organic doesn’t do billboards, and/or all your clients are “PC”?
    The equivalent would be someone hacking/defacing one of your clients websites. Then the ‘brand police’ (you) would have to scramble to take it down. Not cool.
    I liked the Stella ad and that was worth discussion, but you guys had to bring out the politics. Here’s to polarizing your prospects.
