Entrepreneur makes instant hit with advertising auction for trip to Sydney Australia on eBay.
September 17, 2005 (Press Release) --
A 36 year old entrepreneur from Texas that's not new to the marketing and advertising arena has created an outrageous advertising opportunity and is auctioning it on eBay. James Wester, Jr., owner of 4ward Thinking Entertainment, has made a big splash with some well known eBayers with his Outrageous Australian Outback Advertising Opportunity.
He is going to wear the winning bidder's logo gear through the very high traffic aiports of IAH in Houston and LAX in Los Angeles, on the flight to Sydney and then continue to advertise for them for his first 30 days back "down under".
"We've all seen some really great things happening on eBay over the last 6 to 8 months in regard to marketing. Since I'm moving back to Australia and I'll be promoting a new dating website there, RooDate.com, I wanted to create an instant buzz about it. I'm excited about traveling back to Australia where I lived for almost a year in 2001 and 2002. I can't wait to get back and enjoy my VB's and Cherry Ripes," Wester, Jr. said. "We all know that sex sells- period. I've called upon a good mate of mine there that will help me in this venture and well, let's just say she's not too hard to look at."
The eBay auction is certainly outrageous as it is claims in the title. From the simple idea of just being seen wearing someone's company logo to the headline sponsorship of the new Australian dating site RooDate.com, singing in front of the Sydney Opera House and many more offers in the auction, he seems to be bursting with energy and enthusiasm at the opportunity to market with a great company. If the bidding gets high enough, as mentioned in the bonus levels of the auction, there is also a possibility that he'll be marketing the lucky winning bidder's logo at the 2006 Australian Open.
The eBay auction # 5616184647 is definitely a hot auction according to some eBayers. It's already over 500 views in less than 2 days and with more auction promotion sites featuring it, it's certain to be a top eBay viewed auction.
