INTRODUCTION:

We've all seen the mishaps of marketing, but here are 8 Father's Day marketing failures, along with an honorable mention 9th unrelated marketing failure at the end. Please feel free to share some of your own. Kpahi wishes all of the fathers out there a great Father's day this weekend.

Groupon:

Oh, the joy of Groupon. My guess is someone may have been fired for this campaign?

Photography Studio:

They may be sending the wrong message?

Giveaway on the wrong day?

Seems like a really long wait.

Protection:

This may be sending the wrong message.

Camel Ad from 1952:

What was deemed appropriate then, wouldn't be now.

Magazine Ad:

Probably not the best placement.

Movie Mishap:

Even the movie marketers make mistakes.

For the Dad that sews?

Someone doesn't know their audience very well.

Honorable Mention:

Just because this is hilarious.

I know the last one has absolutely nothing to do with Father's Day, but you have to admit this is funny. Again, to all of the father's out there, have a great Father's Day from Kpahi.
