Tarantino Marketing Tips: What Role Feet Play and Why Make Uma Thurman Soap

Tarantino’s films are not only blood, psychopaths and complete trash. Each film is a rich, tasty lecture. And yes, sometimes it’s a marketing lecture.







Need your own voice



You can’t watch the Tarantino movie and don’t understand who made it. The uniqueness is in the little things: in the naked female feet in full screen, invented brands, black suits. Not a single shoe store boasts a powerful association that arises between him and women's feet. Tarantino can.





The brand, like the film, must be unique. A man hears his voice - and before looking at the logo, he knows: oh, this is the same sports shop. And the more touches will happen, the more associations will arise, the more “legs” a client sees in the frame, the more likely they are to contact the brand.



Fall is an occasion to rise



The film “True Romance” may not like it, but it cannot leave you indifferent. If you watched it, then you probably think the movie is at least curious.



Now “True Romance” is considered one of the most striking films of the 90s. It's hard to believe that Tarantino barely sold the script at the lowest price. Hollywood studios have choked him up and down. One of the producers wrote a response letter: “How dare you send me this piece of shit?” Your roof went. Want to know how I feel about this? Here, I return this piece of shit. Fuck you! ”

It is not known how Tarantino reacted at that moment, but he clearly did not stop writing scripts.



Both brand creators and marketers can learn a lesson from this story. If you believe in your work - do not give up. Grow thick skin, keep punch, become Quentin in your sphere.



Stealing ideas is fine



Almost.



When asked about sources of inspiration, Tarantino replied: “I steal ideas from all films ever made.”



The idea of ​​one of the storylines in the film “Four Rooms” originally belonged to Alfred Hitchcock. Tarantino adapted it in his script. More like a sign of respect than a theft. The cook can rely on recipes known to everyone, but create a unique dish. He is unlikely to be accused of theft.



Let's face it: none of us gives birth to one new, creative, and unique idea per minute. We look back at our work, at the work of competitors. No need to reinvent the wheel to sell it. Attach a motor to it, improve the finished idea - and they will already look back at you.



Work on the details



All characters in Tarantino films are exceptional. We hear the song “You will be a woman soon” or the name “Bill” - and the image of Uma Thurman appears in my head. The details of the images of her characters are so vivid that the actress's face is harder to remember than her white shirt stained with blood or a katana.



Both movie characters and goods on the shelves should stand out from the rest.
If you need to sell soap, let it become unique, like Uma Thurman.
