CEO is on the move in Phnom Penh!

Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started!

Come on, you haven't read a single one because you're illiterate. Image

You raise a good point, and that's the tricky thing about advertising.

You can go get a 4-year degree in advertising, and that might still not be enough to grasp it well.

The point you raise is that one strategy doesn't work for everyone. Period.

I often read them. Just out of curiosity of what's going on around town. I remember when that short-lived Russian restaurant was around I spotted their 10% off and free drink ad. That was while driving.

I notice them all the time. I can also tell you that many of them typically park near where their ad is from.

So what doesn't work for you will be very enticing to someone else, and vice versa.

That's one of the big tricks of advertising and why you can't just rely on one method. I might HATE any ad with a white background, but that doesn't ring true for everyone. I need to think about them as well.

Also, you're forgetting where our TukTuk parks. Right in front of a well established expat bar/restaurant. Again, if you don't go there it gets zero exposure to you, but if do, there's a good chance it will catch your eye!

Now all we need is a few of these guys on Monivong and Norodom, so if anyone's looking for a very prestigious job, PM us. Image

CEO, home of the Double D's.




To those who do not know the First names of the Admins, both start with D and in fact there is only one vowel different in their first names.

Fuggin confusing... plus they look so much alike.
Are you kidding?

You need to look closer. Anyone can see that the African-American 'D' is a good inch taller than the white American 'D'. :facepalm:

If you want more exposure with tuk tuk ads, try St. 172 between 19 and 13 (Sun Dance?). That street has changed hugely since last year. More and more walkers cruise the area because of the huge number of guesthouses and restos, and the route from the Wat Ounalom back and forth to the riverside, plus people naturally turn up 172 from 13 because of the corner evidence that eateries are near.

I was wondering how much it costs for a board like that on the back of a TUK TUK?

In PP?

Snooky?

Siem Reap?

Does the price vary with the town/city?

Is it just a haggle with the driver? but what is the going rate?

about the same everywhere, unless you get it through an ad agency... then it jumps to like $30.

So do you just get a board and find a TUK TUK driver ?

Seems very reasonable


$60 a year or can you just do it month by month ( in season) ?

They want 6 months or 1 year in advance it seems. We did 6 months so we can switch it up after a while.

The board with the printing and frame/etc cost us $15.
