Did PayPerPost Go Too Far?

February 2nd, 2007 · 2 Comments

In a recent stunt, PayPerPost pays a Chicago mother $1,000 to scribble an ad on her forehead. (video) As a result, it looks like PayPerPost has lost at least 1 fan. I don’t think the stunt was nearly as bad as BumFights, but it definitely was not in good taste. Do you think HP approved this? PayPerPost is getting some more attention…so is it mission accomplished?

    The kid probably didn’t mind. But I’d bet that HP’s involvement was indirect, hiring PayPerPost to…use their judgement to create publicity. At this point bad publicity is good publicity for PayPerPost.

    I think you are right Matt - any publicity is probably good publicity at this point
