Advertising 101

How do you promote a potentially tanking business model? You sex it up, of course. This is exactly what Ticket Busters (a.k.a. Richard Harris' mini-firm) has done. 

Available NOW at TB's front desk is a pinup-style calendar featuring scantily-clad photos of ... their employees (actual cover pictured at right). Apparently, Ticket Busters took the time honored "sex sells" slogan to heart, and started hiring out-of-work stripers to handle the complex legal work that accompanies getting traffic fines reduced shuffle papers.

We're unsure whether we want TB to succeed with this endeavor. After all, is anyone excited about the prospect of a "Girls of Lionel Sawyer" calendar coming down the pike? For those who would like to get their own copy of this filth, just pick up the phone and keep dialing the number of the beast ... sinners.

  2. I'll just have to go get a ticket somewhere and grab a calendar...

    And yes, I'd second 4:07p - LSC has at least a few I'd like to see. That makes me wonder, which firm in town has the hottest women attorneys? And to be an equal opportunity offender, which has the hottest men attorneys?

  3. After the Spitzer revelations, I the nexus of Prostitution and Lawyering was the similar hourly rate. Now I see that the similarities run much deeper.

  7. Oh, nevermind. Alverson. Just hit me. Too bad they are too cheap or lazy to put associate photos on the Web site.

  8. For a firm that wants to give the appearance of being a professional, corporate structure, they sure failed with this calendar. What kind of employer would exploit his 'professional' employees by posing them as trashy pin-up girls? Tacky.
