What about Role Playing as a Marketing Tool?
In what will be hailed as a new frontier in marketing "Role
Playing is about to become a major force." Heed the words of
Sear Rhykan, the marketing Guru. This is marketing taken to its
next level!
Players will be given roles as advertising executives,
newsletter writers, movie critics, copy writers, brain surgeons,
kalamazoos, average Joe's, test drivers, and on and on.
Other players will take the parts of the notorious "Big Box
Store Owners", Mutual fund salesmen, real-estate guru, used car
salesman, blanket manufacturer, president of a 3rd world
country, paranoid leader of a 1st level country that is not an
Empire, but wants to be.
They will be given a few hours to settle into the new world and
set it in order. This will be called 'The New World Order'. Who
said that anyway? Once this has been done the "average Joe's"
will be sent out to spend. Spend, spend, buy until all the money
they have is in the hands of a couple of the Elite. Once this
has been accomplished the game will move to a new level.
We will call this the "Screenspam" stage. It is made necessary
by the shortage of cash in "Joe's" jeans. I wonder how we can
solve this problem.
Maybe if we introduce a new bunch of players! Bankers! Consumer
credit companies! Right on! Now the boys have another source of
'funds' to play with. It may not be cash, but... Let's see what
they are going to do. We will have to keep the 'Big Boxes' open
until midnight for a while here.
They copywriters and advertising executives are all having
little organisms thinking about the new wave of consumerism. New
stores are being built. Postal employees are looking for a
raise. At the end of each month Taxis are full, heading for the
Mall!
Hot Damm, you did it Greeny!
