With just week and a half to go until the San Francisco AD:Tech Conference, exhibitors are scrambling for hot women to stand in front of their booths to draw in conference attendees. While this tactic does drive traffic to a booth, every guy at the show will crowd these booths not because of what the exhibitor has to sell but to wag their tongues while viewing the massive display of cleavage. Here’s one of several ads on Craig’s list soliciting hotties:
“We are looking for two attractive, intelligent women to help with a marketing and promotional campaign for a revolutionary software company at a local show. Here is what we are looking for:
* Women who are extroverted (outgoing and tactful)
* Can talk to someone (and look interested while doing so) for a few minutes and convey a few simple business ideas about the company
* Be able to hand out an overview document on the company
* Be able to collect the persons business card
Time: 2 days @ $ / hour (rate depends on skills, but should be about $20)
Dates: 5/24/2004 – 5/25/2004
Location: San Francisco
Please send an email to XXX@yahoo.com with a bit about your background or a resume and a picture.”
Mind you, I’m not against this tactic. In fact, I look forward to the cleavage-fest.
