The same hipster that was advertising soap so brilliantly the other week brings you sunglasses with a twist this week. Here's the ad, here's the test. Startups, think smart about your advertising!

Normally we advocate focus for startups and would say single purpose beats multipurpose but not so with "The Hook".
