This is something that goes on your ketchup bottle and spreads the ketchup. Fine. Looks like a nose. Kind of gross. Crazy. So this is the email that comes with it:
Hello there!
We have a very nice tip for your blog,
a new product called Spread Heads.For more details I`m submitting a PR Release,
as well as the product package / picture.If further information is needed, don’t hesitate in contacting me.
This sounds more like a William Carlos Williams poem than a pitch. Clearly the PR person in question was using a 40 character green screen or she wouldn’t have stuffed in so many carriage returns. There is also no further information. What is it? Who sells it? All we get is a trio of two line couplets. And they say cocaine use leveling off in PR.









Bonus points for the William Carlos Williams reference. I once wrote a 16 paged criticism of his ‘The Red Wheelbarrow’. I hate poetry.
Mechanical Engineering is way better.
Where’s that old green-coloured Ketchup for a few years ago when you need it?
I just posted another weird PR email on my blog. Maybe there’s something in the water this week? http://glark.org/how-to-write-a-press-release/
their website doesn’t look too promising either: http://thespreadheads.com/. I like Ketchup Charlie and Mustard Marvin as such, though. AND: I want that cheeseburger…now!
Haiku FTW
The Spreadheads ketchup
Red where it should have been green
PR gets lazy
“Red where it should have been green”
Are the different colored ketchups still on the market?
might be a bad technique.
But it got your attention.
You published their picture.
They win.
What? Hasn’t anyone commenting here ever had a bloody nose? Red!
Would like to purchase. Could you give me an address or contact phone number. Thank you.
