Beautiful Nightmare!

My Mum sent me this article from London’s ‘Daily Telegraph’ Newspaper and I have to say I love it.

My favourite bit is when the little kid wakes up and tells his parent’s, “I’ve bought a car!”

It reminds me of a great story of when George [cynic] found his super-expensive, new mobile phone at the bottom of his daughters fish tank.

After going stark, raving mad … and with his eyes still bulging … he demanded an explanation.

His beautiful daughter looked up at him and replied that having just seen ‘Finding Nemo’, she was concerned her pet fishes might also be missing their parents – so she dropped the phone into the tank so they could call their parents and let them know they were safe.

Poor George … he so wanted to be angry … but by pulling out the best excuse ever, his daughter managed to change him from psychopath into blubbering mess in a matter of seconds.

And some companies still doubt the power of the emotional ‘sell’!
