More funny branding from North and South America.

I was fortunate enough to spend the last week with my beautiful girlfriend at a private beach front resort in Mancora, Peru.

Unfortunately we weren’t alone however, as we discovered on the first night that more than a few mosquitoes had decided to stay at the resort too.

So being the good boyfriend that I am, I went to the local store and bought some spray-on mosquito repellent.

But by the looks of the can…this could have actually been a contraceptive.

A while back I did a post featuring some funny branding I had spotted in my adventures travelling through South America.

Since then, the branding fun hasn’t stopped, so here is another collection of laugh-worthy marketing from the other land down under.

As a marketer I knew that the change of Australian Prime Minister this would be the perfect time for nimble, opportunistic advertisers to deliver some media relevant messages.

And I wasn’t wrong.

Here is a selection of press ads that appeared alongside the cover-to-cover media coverage.
