This ad by BBDO Dusseldorf is a bit cheeky but you can’t deny it’s creativity. For their ad agency recruitment campaign, the minds at BBDO needed something raw and eye-catching yet simple enough to convey the “Join us” message all in one memorable symbol or catch-phrase.

Their final recruitment ad killed two birds with one stone by playing off the iconic Southern California “Blood” gang symbol. It also worked out nicely that the letters “b-b-d-o” were finger-friendly (I love my old ad agency, but try spelling TBWA with your fingers!) Hard to say if the general public will understand this hip-hop/gang reference, but a brilliant ad nonetheless.
“Pho” those of you who don’t know, pho (pronounced ‘fuh’) is a delicious traditional Vietnamese beef noodle soup. Everyone has their own reason for liking pho, but most pho-enthusiasts agree that the secret is in the broth. That’s why nothing beats a homemade bowl of pho.

You’re trying to mingle at a social gathering but find yourself tied up with a glass of wine in one hand and a plate full of snacks in the other, making introductions and hand shakes very awkward. What do you do?
