You don't have to be from the Ave. of Mad to know the difference between a good ad and bad.

The Alley
Dig this bench ad for the Alley, a tatoo parlor in Chicago. In case you can't read it, it says, "Get Pierced Not Screwed. Holey moley, that's a great play on words.
What started with a simple URL obsession has blossomed into an all-consuming marketing mania. As a marketing professional, my day job requires me to critically evaluate good and bad marketing ideas. For some reason, I decided to devote my nights and weekends to that same pursuit. Of course, in this setting, I get to pick the companies I assess and don't have to mince my words. So join me here as I set out to put my stamp of Good or Bad on every ad that flashes before my eyes (and camera lens).
My name is Aaron Goldman and I'm a marketing junkie. My day job is CMO at Kenshoo, a global technology platform for managing online advertising campaigns. So, yes, I have a vested interest in Good and Bad Ads.
