Should this fuzzy thinking advertising concept gain popularity, beard growing enthusiasts might soon find themselves cashing in.
In addition to providing warmth to your face and sometimes looking stylish, your bushy beard may also contribute to your financial gain.
Beardvertising is being predicted as the ‘next big thing’ in advertising, enabling a willing participant’s impressive facial hair to serve as a mini billboard.
This trend is particularly promising for both lumberjacks and hipsters, as Kentucky-based advertising firm Cornett-IMS is offering men $5 a day to sport clip-on advertisements in their beards.
‘Do people admire its greatness? Of course they do,’ states the official beardvertising website.
‘Want to earn money by flaunting an epic beard? Join the world’s first Beardvertising network.
‘It’s easy – transform your beard into a source of income. Attach a BeardBoard to your beard. Relax and get paid up to $5 a day.’
Executive Whit Hiler noted that the company has received a flood of inquiries from beard growers globally who are interested in this form of ‘native advertising.’
‘I believe it’s the next big thing,’ he shared with Business Insider. ‘Everyone loves beards.
‘We’re seeing a large number of emails from individuals with amazing beards eager to host beardboards, and we are currently in discussions with several brands that are looking to be Beardvertisers.
‘I anticipate that we’ll likely witness some ‘beardboards’ out in public before too long.’
