Cashing in on Palin Fever

Sarah Palin Posters

— September 6, 2008 — Pop Culture
Though Sarah Palin was only announced as the Republican VP candidate on August 30th, people have wasted no time in using graphic and photo imaging programs to create posters of, or relating to, Sarah Palin -- some tactful, and others tactless.

Sarah Palin is an object of fantasy for quite a few men (according to internet buzz), so that she is displayed as Wonder Woman, or a gun-wielding woman in a bikini, comes as no surprise -- in my opinion, those are really shoddy-looking photo imaging attempts. Dare we ask, what's next? And, do we really want to know?

"What's the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick." Sarah Palin spoke those words just a couple of days ago when she gave her acceptance speech. Now? Well, Palin-o-philiacs since created a ton of pitbull, lipstick, and Sarah Palin related posters.

One things for sure -- it'll be interesting to see what other creative musings are used to cash in on Sarah Palin's name over these next couple of months.
Trend Themes
1. Palin-o-philiacs - Opportunity to create and sell merchandise related to Sarah Palin, catering to her fans and supporters.
2. Graphic and Photographic Imaging - Potential to offer personalized services or software tools that allow users to create custom graphic designs and imaging using unique templates.
3. Political Satire - Creating works of satire which leverage political themes and key figures to gain traction on social media and news outlets.
Industry Implications
1. Marketing and Advertising - Marketing and ad companies can leverage Palin's popularity in campaigns and run specialized ads on social media or search engines.
2. E-commerce - Online retailers can experiment with selling specialized Palin merchandise in response to her strong fan base.
3. Software Development - Developers can capitalize on the trend of graphic and photographic imaging through the creation of specialized software tools or apps to cater to this market.
