Rolls-Royce Hawker Promotion
To promote his aunt’s newly revamped hawker stall, Muhammad Ezam Abdul Gani borrowed a Rolls-Royce linked to Singapore’s $3 billion money-laundering probe and filmed himself arriving at the food centre. The deliberately tongue-in-cheek video went viral, drawing curious diners and doubling the stall’s daily sales.
Why it worked: It piggybacked on an ongoing $3b money-laundering saga via a recognisable Rolls-Royce plate, creating a cheeky, hyper-local David-vs-Goliath contrast.
The lesson: Consider staging a playful encounter with a headline-linked object or location, then tie it to a humble, unexpected protagonist and clear CTA.
