They’ve Sold Their Ass, They’ve Sold Their Chest, Now They Are Selling Their Tie?!?
So we’ve covered Leora’s attempt to sell various body parts at conferences. We’ve covered the guy and the girl who sell tshirt infomercials. We’ve even looked at Drama’s attempt to sell porn videos featuring your startup. Here’s a new one…guy selling ad space on his tie!
Gary runs a popular tech events guide in NYC and several other cities in the U.S. He’s well known for wearing a red tie. He’s decided to offer advertising space for companies on his tie. He says he will be going to many events this month and he, "realized that I have some prime billboard advertising space available on my red tie". He continues with the sales pitch, "Perfect place to place your logo stickers etc where it’ll be seen ‘n talked about by the city’s movers and shakers".
The revenue generated from the ads will be donated to CityHarvest. If you are interested in sponsoring a tie this holiday season and helping a local charity, contact Gary on Twitter.
You better act quick because Tie is running out! Here’s Gary sporting the Red TieĀ®:








Sorry I can’t resist making a “power tie” pun, but this brings the concept to a whole new level.
