Same newspaper, same day, same sector, different brands. Imagine that! Who to blame? The brand managers or the agencies or both? The chicken or the egg? 
BBI will solve it :)

They are paid for this con game .......... shame! In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

Would you believe that in the States, Europe and SA people look forward to adverts because they are extremely entertaining... Ok, now come back home, that was a commercial break.

Typical stock photo rubbish. Looks like Scanad. Charge a fortune and deliver sub-standard. Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

This happened to me. We hired an agency to do some fliers for an activation at various retail centers. They went ahead and did the sample. When they brought it, they had used the same photo that a competitor had used, and I was in a competitor's advert, which I had in my drawer. And that was the last day of doing business with them.

Totally agree,we have pathetic ads...Despite the big firms having a monopoly if you get into the industry with fresh new ideas,you can make a name for yourself. possunt quia posse videntur

I wonder why the 'clients' don't realise that this big agencies have no time to waste especially on small brands with small budgets.

Haiya-ya-ya-ya-yai. GTBank is Nigerian, formerly Fina Bank, isn't it? How about APA? Maybe they are are related, so, they opted to cut cost. But why on the same paper, same day? Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you.” ― Rashi

Clear sign of laziness and complacency. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore
