Parissa Wax Strips "Backvertising"

Rethink Communications recently launched an innovative new form of media: backvertising. Waxed out of a man’s excessively hairy back were the words Parissa Wax Strips. The man paraded at a busy beach passing out free samples. Beach-goers laughed, received product demonstrations and lined-up to take photos. The stunt was covered extensively on radio and online media.
