Forehead Advertising Pioneer Andrew Fischer is 'Ad' it Again

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 9 /PRNewswire/—Andrew Fischer a.k.a. the “Forehead Guy,” who received international attention after successfully marketing and selling advertising space on his forehead, earning over $50,000 last January by wearing a temporary tattoo, has just announced plans to make his forehead available for corporate branding once again. After receiving thousands of emails from fans and potential advertisers over the course of 2005, he has decided to make his 30-day head turning campaign an annual marketing event.

The 21-year-old web entrepreneur originally thought up the idea after seeing several high dollar eBay oddities in the news. He wanted to create a unique marketing concept that would hold value long after the final bid was placed, giving the winning company the best possible return on their investment. His original auction attracted bids from all sorts of companies, each excited about the idea of getting “ahead.” His initial sponsor reported a five-fold increase in sales and name recognition for their business in 2005. - PR Newswire
