Creative

Pubvendo’s primary creative strategy featured fictional yearbook photos with captions adapted from stories in the book. Our secondary creative strategy featured pictures of celebrities from stories in the book (i.e. Snoop Dogg smoking weed on HuffPo Live). Expanding further on our yearbook photo strategy, we also developed custom content relevant to stories in the book (i.e. a job flyer for the “Shabat Shiksa” correlating to the eponymous chapter in the book).

"Pubvendo brought my book to social media life. Not only did they immediately grasp my brand of humor, they also identified and targeted an audience that would appreciate stories about Chevy Chase grabbing my balls at a funeral and the time I tried to steal a soiled tissue containing Oprah Winfrey’s tears. As an author, nothing made me happier than seeing a stranger comment: ‘I just bought your book. If it’s even half as funny as your Facebook ads, I’m in for a treat!’"
