CenturyLink Marketing Promo’s
While a customer of CenturyLink I started to realize they enjoy wasting money on marketing materials. I began collecting the materials, so here’s a compilation similar to my previous Election 2016 Political Ads posting. I’m no longer a CenturyLink customer and the marketing materials seem to have stopped. I want to clear some space so it’s time for the results.
66 large flyers promoting Prism TV service.
I thought it would be interesting to compare the pricing and services offered across the different marketing materials. (Preferred plans included Showtime and Starz)
