HealthCity fitness centre: Wrongly addressed mailing

HealthCity fitness centre: Wrongly addressed mailing
Your rating: None Average: 6.4 (34 votes)

For HealthCity fitness we deliberately delivered mailings to the wrong address: people received the envelope intended for their neighbor. This way they got some exercise by doing what good neighbors do: by putting the envelope next door.

Interesting, though I don't think it's very effective.

Irritating outweighs clever. Engage them entertain them, inform them, but don't F with them.

Risky. Most people doesn´t like make favors to the neighbors.
Puede resultar molesto para mucha gente recibir correspondencia equivocada, creando una imagen negativa para el producto.

Sure. It would have been an awful lot of work to do this. First, collecting many names who live next to each other then switching the names... moreover, most postman will deliver to the right guy even if the address is a little wrong.
