Let's examine a horrible bank billboard.
• Lazy stock photo? √
• Red clip not "significantly" different? √
• Red not the best color for a bank? √
• Meaningless one word tagline? √
Snapped in Atlanta by Nikolaus.
Previous bad bank ads:
• HSBC.
• WaMu.
• Chase.
• Santander.
• Deutsche.
• Bank of New York.

The kerning on 'different.' makes my eyes want to vomit
Does that mean they have copyright on the word "absolutely" and no one can use it anymore?
Why do you think red is not the best color for a bank? Most banks use the red color on their logos, for example: Santander, HSBC, Citigroup, Bank of America. In Mexico we have Banorte and Scotiabank who also use the red color.
Because of "red ink"?
HAHA! I was wondering when you'd get to Atlanta. I pass that billboard everyday. There's another with goldfish. It's awful. If I pass by that one again, I'll email it to you.
