- This is one of those stories that made me chuckle the most anything else has in awhile. Apparently, Oprah has joined forces with Kentucky Fried Chicken for a promotion of their new grilled chicken item. Oprah promoted the item with the promotion of a coupon, and when Oprah promotes something, it appears that people really listen.
  
  She has her book club, even with its problems, and when she promoted this new item for Kentucky Fried Chicken, people really did listen. She told them to go to her website, grab a coupon and then go to Kentucky Fried Chicken. So many did that very thing, it is making the restaurant chain rethink their promotion.
  
  They have been forced to give customers that come in for the promotion a rain check. That is how popular the promotion became. Advertising the connects television and celebrities to products isn’t new, but this is one time I see it working as well as this promotion has apparently.
  
  Oprah looks to be one powerful woman. Her talk show still manages to bring in viewers, and she is always involved in some thing or another. I have not watched her series in recent years, but I have in the past. Something tells me we’ll see Oprah and the power of her persona for quite some time to come, even if the tabloids in the supermarket aisles are saying she has only three years to live. That is something for an entirely different time though! Did you go to KFC for their latest promotion?
