samsung sheeple Samsung protesters tell Apple iSheep to "Wake up".

[nominak]

We know Samsung has an unhealthy obsession with Apple, but this is getting a little weird. This week in Australia, Samsung hired a marketing agency called Tongue to conduct some kind of guerrilla marketing campaign where they sent a bus of protesters to an Apple store and taunted people with the message ?WAKE UP.? Check out the video below and let us know what you think.

How bout this Samsung. If you want the "iSheep" to "wake up"... why not follow your own advice and not get your hired "help" to dress up like... well.. sheep?

Silly Samsung.

Hey Samsung... newsflash: it's a mobile device not a life choice.

I'm a Samsung fan but, if this is true, that's f**king stupid.

It is for Apple users. That's what samsung is going after.

[Boz]

It's hilarious btw..

[Astra.Xtreme]

What do they have to wake up for? Perhaps wake up and release some more products for Samsung to steal ideas from? Hmm... :rolleyes:

[Rudy]

Really bad publicity stunt :/

[nominak]

It's hilarious btw..

It is hilarious how hard Samsung has to fight to try and get a few Apple fans to switch :)

:blink:

Leave it up to Samsung to go from creative marketing to bizarre marketing.

Wake up to what? My iPhone makes calls, browses the web, plays music and takes nice photos. All I want a phone to do, what part about suddenly switching to a Samsung Android phone is going to make me Wake up?

When I look at how much it's going to cost to buy all my apps again?

tbh, This marketing is working out for samsung.. it is making many apple fans hurt(can see the bitching online)

and the rest will switch(aka wake up by samsung)

This type of negative marketing is in very poor taste and out does Apple's pathetic PC vs Mac ads.

[snout1]

Like it - made me laugh.

Maybe they have a very GOOD POINT.

APPLE = CHEAP / SLAVE LABOUR = WAKE UP :rofl:

I can guarantee that Samsung also uses cheap "slave labour" as well.

Yes SAMSUNG = EXPENSIVE / AMERICAN LABOUR :D

They ended up giving free publicity to Apple instead. lol

That worked out for apple very well!!!

Samsung dont care if Apple fans get hurt because of these ads!! actually what they want is that and its proving effective.

[remixedcat]

they got samsunged.

Every platform has enthusiasts and die hard fans, not just Apple.

Personally I'm not loyal to any brand, I'll buy whatever best suits my needs at the time.

My last phones have been iPhone 1st gen, Nokia 5800, HTC Desire, Samsung Galaxy S2. Next one.. who knows.

[Draken]

It's hilarious btw..

nope, not at all (N)

Samsung just became the 21st century version of Jehovah's Witnesses; taking it to the streets as they desperately try to convert the iSheep to GalaxySheep. With "Wake up!" the company and its loyalists actually mean: "Mindlessly join our new cult!", "Buy only our products!", "Our truth is the only truth!".

The only thing Samsung tries to accomplish here is to become Apple. Kinda ironic.

[Vice]

Hey sheeple put down those iPhones and buy a Samsung Fridge, Samsung Microwave, Samsung Washing Machine, Samsung Dishwasher, Samsung Vacuum Cleaner, Samsung Oven, Samsung TV, Samsung Laptop, Samsung Desktop, Samsung Phone, Samsung Tablet, Samsung Bluray Player, Samsung Camera, Samsung Stereo etc.. etc..

Samsung is all you need man! - Join the Samsung cult we got you covered in every inch of your life!

[DevilsNotDead]

nope, not at all (N)

tbh, it is funny for a samsung fan to see apple fans getting hurt.

maybe you are on the other side and maybe because of that you didnt get the funny.

[ArialBlue]

If you get rid of iSheep where will you get iWool?

I'm a Samsung fan, but I just think it was lame, and I don't think Apple fans would get hurt by that.

They're just annoying... It's not witty or clever, just irritating.

[linsook]

haha, amusing only because its an utterly ridiculous marketing stunt, i didn't finish the whole video cause it was pretty retarded.. also funny to see those who are actually upset because of it.
