Branding Baby
Marketing Blurb does not cover body advertising. Selling advertising space on breasts, buttocks, and foreheads is old news. But The Wall Street Journal (paid subscription required) delighted us today with an article about selling naming rights for babies. This is not a permanent deal, mind you, but a fund raiser for the American Chamber of mead.jpgCommerce scholarship fund. Chamber vice president Chris Mead, sold the naming rights to his son for two weeks at $ 375. So meet ChamberMaster Mead, named for the ChamberMaster software company. Horizon Industries is waiting in the wings for the next two weeks. But the story does not stop here. According to a poll conducted a few years ago by parenting website Americanbaby, 49% of responding parents say they would consider accepting money from corporation in exchange for naming right to their babies.
