Does your company deserve ink?

Earlier this week, Engadget asked why someone would get a Zune tattoo? My first thought… he has to be Bill’s nephew. I passed it off as one strange guy. But, last night while playing my weekly basketball game, I noticed a friend had a Nike swoosh tattoo on his ankle. Rather than humiliate him for his bad decision, I tried to determine what could be so compelling about the swoosh to want it permanently on yourself?
What is your company doing to deserve some ink? Our startup is focusing on our community tools, but I can’t fathom it warranting a tattoo.
The next time your marketing team wants to work on “brand development”, ask them how you get a customer to rave about you with your logo on their body! Seriously, businesses have to stop putting out more ads that aren’t memorable. Try being silly or funny, but don’t be bland.
