ad review – BlackFire Car Wax

The script for the Black Fire TV commercial is incredibly bad. The line goes something like ” Black fire cleans from front to back. side to side, top to bottom”. There is no actual real information about the product at all.. Just kaleidoscope images of a Ferrari behind the product.

Only two situations can exist with the product…

  1. The company is completely incompetent and they hired the secretary’s kid to make the commercial. Of course that is tongue in cheek.  But a bad ad agency is worse. You’re fooled into thinking you are on the right track.
  2. The product is complete CRAP and the ad agency fears making any statements about the product because none can be supported.

A bikini clad girl across a shinny car would have made more sense. Regardless, no one is buying Black fire car wax because of this ad.

I suspect the product is GREAT and the copywriter is crap.
