Dallas, TX (1888PressRelease)
March 13, 2007 - Dallas eBay Powerseller auctions forehead as human billboard during eBay's National Convention in Boston.
Dallas eBay Powerseller, Stephanie Inge, has her forehead up for auction as a human billboard. She is trying to raise money to attend eBay's National Convention, eBay Live 2007 in Boston, Massachusetts. The lucky bidder will get to display their logo, company name or website across her forehead for 7 days in the form of a temporary tatoo.
Stephanie didn't think twice about launching the auction, even though her family and friends thinks she crazy and were against the whole idea. It will be very interesting to find out which company purchases the ad space, as eBay doesn't allow its' competitors to exhibit during their convention.
Stephanie says, "What better way to get your foot in the door, than right in the middle of my forehead." This unique marketing opportunity may be a great bargain, especially for those companies who can't get in the door of eBay Live 2007. eBay is still the major auction website and Meg Whitman plans to keep it that way as long as possible, in spite of the fact that Google is nipping at their heels.
It is refreshing to know that Guerilla Marketing is alive and well and and up for auction on eBay! The auction is already attracting masses of interested advertisers and doesn't end until March 21st.
This is one that we'll probably hear about on the morning talk shows, so stay tuned, or visit the auction yourself to read all of the details.
