In my opinion, an ad that only increases sales when it is airing is not a good ad. That shows it is not memorable. :o Then sad to say.. most ads aren't even good ads then? And to think that i'm spending loads of money, LOL. It's like gambling with higher probability of losing than winning. Maybe i ...

I often see that sales increases when Ad is on air. but then back to 'normal' when it's off air. I agree that to advertise is to sell: the idea, the concept, ...

Okay. (Taking a deep breath...) Here's an interesting question. Is whatever constitutes a good ad subjective? This is a comment I have heard so very often - from account servicing people (the 'sales people' within an ad agency) and clients. Occasionally I have heard it from creative people too. I h...

I thought i'll post my findings for everyone's benefit... Changi Sailing Club doesn't do boat chartering. They recommend me to call one of their member who does offer such services. 20-30 ppl at abt SGD 3k-4k. one(degree)15 only offers services for members. Raffles marina offers surprisingly cheap b...

All worth a try, especially Riccotti :wink: :wink: :wink: Super_Star, I haven't actually tried the place yet. Been skeptical cos I hear mixed rev...

Renting a Boat / Yacht in Singapore

Hi guys, I wonder if anyone has any experience or know where I can rent a boat or a yacht for 15-20 people here?

Really? I shall give it a try then.

Well, you have fun and have a good trip then.. I'll explore and see if any other place is as good. Garibaldi has good reviews, but i'm skeptical. And the word trattoria just simply yells good food. And i miss the Osteria in the small little lanes... :)
