Is it wrong to use your kid to advertise?? This was one of my baby shower gifts. I thought it was so cute. In case you can't read it, it says:
Houses for Sale

The size is for 18 months so she'll be a "walking" advertisement instead of a "crawling" one where you wouldn't be able to read it as it's on the front. I got a couple of others too. One says "My Mommy WILL sell your House" and the other one says, "Realtor in Training".
It was very creative of my friend to think of this as she created them herself. What do you think? Has anyone else sent their kids to day care with their advertising on their clothes? Have you taken them to the store or the park with your advertising to strike up conversations? How did it go?
I'm so excited for her to be big enough to fit into these!!
People pay their own money to wear advertising for large corporations - NIKE, Reebok, FUBU, Etc....
It is thought provoking, it is innovative, it is brilliant. You are working hard to provide a home for your child, and what better team than a family to work together for a common goal.
Keep a positive perspective, dont let the shortsighted comments of others dim your energy and resolve.
What can you do if you don't have kids? Wait, I know. I'll dress up my cats. OK, that won't work. Have you ever tried to dress a cat and lived to tell about it? Maybe I'll glue my business cards to their tails and send them out into the streets. Wait, that won't work, either. They won't get close enough to anybody before they're run over by a truck. You know, maybe I should own a dog.
Actually, I think your shirts are cute!! What sweet friends you have.
Look at how cute you are! I want to rub that belly!
What a great idea! I love it!
I love the idea! I'm going to buy smaller Gateway shirts for my daughters right now! ;o)
As the Guinness commercials would say: Brilliant!!!
It's oh so cute and perfect! And there's not a thing wrong with it.
William, Thank you for your comments. I thought it was brillant too, and couldn't believe I didn't think of it first!
Elizabeth, You could get something printed on little bags that you throw the kitty litter away in and leave the bags laying around your neighborhood?? or maybe that would only work with dogs... lol
Leslie, Give it a try! At two, he could even point it out and tell people what it says which would work even better!
Renee, that picture is from September. I'm definitely not that cute anymore. My face is HUGE as I'm retaining ungodly amounts of water and my doctor is dumbfounded by it, but thank you!
Jessica, Great idea, thanks!
Josh, I'm glad I could help you grow your business! Your daughters will love the shirts!
Ricardo, Thank you!
Missy, Thanks *blush*
That is a great idea! Yes, that is certainly fine to employ youngsters in the advertisement of the business. In College Station, Texas as times, they even have folks who stand on the street corners holding signs.
Christi, Stay on your side of town and copy away!! LOL! jk Yes, they would feel obligated to wear them, maybe even if it's only when you're around, but then suggest going out to dinner while they're wearing them.
Jason, Why wouldn't it be legal? I'm not promising any interest rates or anything like that. That's great you got a listing at a funeral... sad, but great.
Donna,
I think that's very cute and why not. People have been doing it for years in all different ways. We are in the advertising business!
Lisa, Thanks and very true! Just like advertising on a baseball uniform!
Rebecca, Hopefully so. I'll need to start hanging out at the parks and malls.
Mommy had a baby, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt..... LOL
I like the "Realtor in Training"
Great idea. My kids are older, but may use this for the dog. Great idea.

Cheri, Everyone loves sweatshirts in the winter. They might not mind if there was a little something on the back of the sweatshirt as they throw it on to run to the store or something.
Cindy, Kids love business cards, and I hand them out to the kids of my clients all the time.
Bonner, That would be cute for a doggie shirt, or even on a dog collar or bandana around the neck...
