You think tampons are hard to advertise and let’s be honest its not always easy to advertise products like carpet, plastic silverware or toilet bowl cleaner, yet advertisers are always pushing to get these products to top of mind awareness of the consumers through creative and comical promotions.

But this promotion really caught my eye for a VERY HARD to advertise service.

Not only is it promotion of a service that is practically impossible to advertise for, but it is also one of those uncomfortable awkward situations for everyone.  Circumcision.

Believe it.  There is actually advertising for circumcisions.

In Turkey, this circumsicer needed an economical method to educate the community on his services, so using a perforated poster with the ability to tear off information, seemed like the perfect fit.  Especially with the “artistic” work strategically placed on the perforations.

What do you think?  Does it grab your attention? Is it appropriate?  Would you use this doctor if you were in need of his services?
