Opportunistic Marketing and Free Lube

SM friend and serial entrepreneur Aydin Mirzaee shares this picture.    It’s the storefront of an Adult store in downtown Ottawa.  Currently our city has suffered a 40+ day old transit strike.     People who depend on public transit are suffering.   Roads are clogged.  People are cranky.  Small businesses are losing business.

The only plus side to this – downtown air quality is way up.  Because Ottawa has no clean transit (like trains), the city core is clogged with 500 idling dirty-diesel-spewing monstrosities.

Kudos to Wilde’s for demonstrating some marketing savvy, humour, and a penetrating political message :)
