Sometimes that's done on purpose. It draws your eyes, and hooks you into a conversation when you go point it out...

Catching attention and getting business are two VERY different things.

The crazy drunk guy yelling at his invisible demons on the train catches my attention. But I’m not going to hire him for anything.

My stepdad owned his own auto shop in a small town. A guy in town was starting his own business publishing a free countertop periodical that makes its money through local advertisements. My stepdad agreed to advertise with him on the condition he print the ad upside down. After no one came into the shop and mentioned the ad after a few months or so, he canceled the ad space.

He wasn't sure if maybe it being upside down turned people off, but regulars never mentioned it which meant he knew his target demographic didn't read the publication. Many people who are regulars at shops looooove jib jabbing with their mechanic

They're an oil company at some kind of convention. They are trying to catch the attention of multi million/billion dollar businesses to buy their machinery, and it seems to me those kinds of people like stupid things and/or make stupid decisions, so seems pretty on point to me to attract them haha

makenzie71 t1_jecvvwk wrote

They do that on purpose. Not only did it get your attention, but you just did a ton of free advertising for them. It's like when they write SOTP at intersections. You see it better when it's wrong. It's like that saying about how the best way to get the right answer to a problem is to post the wrong one in public.

ShowNext445 t1_jedxnb6 wrote

I work in exhibitions and trade shows and it seems impossible that the graphic would get printed and applied without the error being spotted; so it makes me think that it was intentional. Of course it might be that it was a mistake, and whoever installed the stand just didn't give a crap and didn't mention it to the client.

20 years ago I worked on CeBIT for Philips. Next to us was Plextor who just released their iconic 8x2x2 cd-writer. After the whole week I asked the engineers why their billboard had the CD laying up-side-down in the tray with the purple/green up. (I don't remember which colour it was).

They said they haven't noticed and the only person saying something was me. I think I still have a picture somewhere..
