Have Pier Recruitment crossed the line with advertising ?

Be good to hear your views as this security in the workplace is quickly becoming an alarming issue

@PierRecruit: We supply CRB checkss on our guys if required to help protect workplaces from people like him #securityintheworkplace http://t.co/J2ysc7ACKZ

Haha
Not offended at all. Makes a change to be amused by a ad.

If they were advertising for teachers assistants etc then maybe.

Perhaps they could learn how to compose a sentence and spell check

Lighten up

Doesn't offend me but not very professional

The amount of crap I have had from the Facebook status for the same advert is unbelievable!!! Sorry I can't put the link to the Facebook account on here but it's Pier Recruitment Agency so take a look and check out the posts. I've even had to delete some because they were so nuts. Lol

The problem with online advertising is that if you keep it professional then you don't get any interest so I've gone down the Paddy Power route and f**k me what a difference. Pmsl

I wake up to some abuse this morning after that advert yesterday lol.

Today's two adverts are:
What do you mean you won't work overtime!!

all of these adverts are beyond awful. i have no problem with offensive jokes but these arent even funny

Although i'm not offended by any of these adverts, it is not very professional, surely you can see why some people would be uptight ??

Same could be said for many online advertising campaigns and it doesn't do them much harm

It all depends on how you want to profile your business...

all that matter is figures and if profits were ever hit because of this then we will review the advertising campaign. So far so good at the moment through

Beyond awful. Is my opinion.

Desperate. Lack of morals.

Lighten up

Nonce sympathiser.

That's nothing to what the likes of Paddy Power and others get up too

Paddy power do not do any anything close to putting a paedophile on their adverts.

And the profit is all that matters mantra, is the reason why business owners are hated.

Paddy power do not do any anything close to putting a paedophile on their adverts.

The advert is about the company offering to do free CRB checks to stop paedophiles from being in your work place. That's a good thing isn't it ?

We understand that working reporting late for work can cost firms money so we will do everything we can to ensure that our guys report to work in plenty of time ready for the working day

Yes.

But that isnt the issue. I think you may regret it, these shock ads. Personally I would stop. Wouldnt you rather come across as professional. As a recruitment agency.

I like the Jimmy Saville one, it makes me at ease that people like you wouldn't get a job in a school thanks to Brownys security measures.

491 likes ? Hardly made an impact... Ive got more friends

Compare that to two days ago then it's up 50% so it's working

I guess it also depends on the type of person you want to attract as well.

Maybe more likes or whatever but not sure id click it and want to apply for work through it.

Made the local news all day today

2 things....

1. you might want to actually click on the profiles of the people who are commenting on your 'adverts' saying how great they are, then look at the profiles of those telling you how crap they are. then tell me which ones are more likely to be customers you want to attract.

2. your press statement just adds to how unprofessional the whole thing is. it's constructed appallingly, details your marketing strategy, and basically gives the air of 'i know this isnt the right thing to do, but i'm desperate for business'. not a good look...
