Your Next Project Starts with Brownstoner
Get drunk, swim, eat brunch at Junior’s and get raped on the way home. Count me in!
The ad is not so bad. You have to do something to promote your billion dollar building located on the worst stretch of Flatbush. yippee down from Juinor’s. So get drunk, swim and then eat a bunch of Cheesecake. Awesome what a lifestyle. Get to know a different Brooklyn. Yea one that is 2 blocks away from the Projects no wonder they have all that stuff anyone who lives here is not going to leave the building, underground parking, freshdirect, easy taxi to Manhattan it is its own gated community. And all you Fancy Pants Liberal New Yorkers thought that only existed in Florida for old rich republicans HA
Huh?, there’s nothing wrong with wanting to live in a high-end condo, including this one, and I didn’t say there was. I was only talking about the ad, and the kind of people who could be swayed by it. And what I said was the only kind of person who could possibly be enticed by an ad like this is the aforementioned brand of loser. Did you watch the commercial? It’s cheaply made, shows you nothing about any of the apartments’ actual features–only the health club, pool, and a cheesy rendering of the apparant bar (there’s a bar?)–with a voiceover who reads a script something like “Some people spend a lot of money on health clubs, movies, and going to bars. Suckers!” I understand the concept of selling a lifestyle, not just bricks and morter. Still: this ad agency ain’t taking home any Clios any time soon, IMHO. By the way: Yeah, Jem, the ad implies that drinks at the Oro’s bar will be FREE! See ya there!
trading one kind of suckers for another kind of sucker.
still, i like the idea of the Oro residents never leaving the premises …
What about the bars? Oro is going to give free drinks aswell?
Tacky
“It’s gonna be the same kind of losers you see waiting in line outside clubs in the meatpacking district.” while i agree that the ad is somewhat cheesy, to think that someone who would respond to this ad is a loser is a stretch. How does one make that
illogical leap? What’s wrong with being interested in living in a high end condo?
Ug.
Do you really succeed in selling condos with an ad that talks about nothing but the building’s pool, gym, and bar–and does so with a smarmy, cheesy tone and bad voiceover? Also, where do you place a broadcast television ad to be effective in selling Brooklyn condos? New York 1, maybe? Seems estupido a la grande to me. Tell ya one thing: I sure wouldn’t want to live in a building with people who WOULD respond to this kind of come-on. It’s gonna be the same kind of losers you see waiting in line outside clubs in the meatpacking district.
