Once joining the contest, you can earn points by having people vote for your personal reason that you deserve a “Hot Juicy Burger,” referring a friend to join, posting your Wendy’s character to a social networking site, and continuously logging onto the site.

To me, this seems like an online version of the famous pyramid scam that got people to sell a water filters to all their friends and relatives but just image how well that worked for the one at the top of the pyramid? Wendy’s has built a great social network of all who dream of having a steady diet Wendy’s burgers for the rest of their life. I am getting ready to color my hair red and e-mail all my friends, what about you?

Using interactive websites for businesses, products and services is becoming the new way that companies are reaching out to consumers and appealing to them on a deeper level. As web sophistication increases and more and more marketers take advantage of the medium, we can expect to see a lot more sales activity online.

Advertising today has become much more interactive and consumer-friendly, allowing the customer to become the marketer. Since consumers are the ones who buy the products, I think companies like M&Ms and Blendtec have the right idea by allowing consumers to create advertisements and personalized messages that appeal to them on a deeper level.

Their “Come Into the Closet” idea utilizes high end video and simple flash to highlight the benefits of their closet collections while personalizing each product to cater to a certain audience. The site features a clean layout, nice typography, and crisp, vibrant flash video in which you can navigate through with the use of elevator-type buttons that seamlessly take you from one floor to another and demonstrate the features of each closet through contrasting subjects.

There is one downfall to this site, the load time, but once you’re inside, it does a great job of effectively showcasing the benefits of the product through a somewhat virtual reality of everyday human experience.

Come Into the Closet.

The solution: Before coming up with a solution who’s Eos? (From Wikipedia) Eos (“dawn”) was, in Greek mythology, the Titan goddess of the dawn, Eos, preceded by the Morning Star, is seen as the genetrix of all the stars; her tears are considered to have created the morning dew.

What’s the big idea? Lets create a site that brings a fun, and current part of Greek mythology online, and do a “personalized” Tarot card reading. The user can truly be part of the experience.
