Traduzione e definizione
a gimmick: un trucco, un gadget promozionale
I've thought of a great gimmick: "Buy our washing machine, and receive a free pen!" Ho pensato a un ottimo trucchetto pubblicitario: "Compra la nostra lavatrice e ricevi una penna in omaggio!"
Pronunciation examples

1 gimmick: "Gimmick" is the term we were looking for here. A "gimmick" is a silly or cheap trick, often used to convince people to buy something. Example: "Grevlon always uses marketing gimmicks like free pens to sell its terrible products". In this dialogue, Susie says "putting perfume inside a billboard is such a gimmick".
2 silly: "Silly" is the correct answer here. If someone or something is "silly", they are "stupid", "frivolous", "foolish", or "lacking good sense". In the dialogue, Susie says that the idea of putting perfume inside a billboard is a "silly marketing trick". Another example: "Don't be silly: of course I don't love your brother more than I love you".
3 tacky: "Tacky" is the right answer. When we describe something as "tacky", we mean that it looks "cheap" or "in bad taste". "Tacky" is another insult which Susie uses against the marketing idea of fragranced billboards in this dialogue. Another example: "Samantha's wedding ring is very tacky: a huge plastic "diamond"."
Esercizio 2
What does Kevin want Philip to do with the surplus bottles of Bordello Breeze?
What does Kevin want Philip to do with the surplus bottles of Bordello Breeze?
Kevin does not write about selling perfumes to older "clients", but about selling an older "line" of perfumes.
Kevin writes that Philip must try to "move these units". A "unit" is a common business term for the individual elements which a factory or a company produces. In this case, the "units" are the bottles of Bordello Breeze. To "move a unit" simply means to sell the product, either to retail or to a wholesale distributor.
Kevin asks Susie to help with a marketing campaign, not Philip. "A gimmick", specifically a "marketing gimmick" is a promotional device which incites or motivates people to buy something. The term generally has a negative connotation. For example, the offer of a free mobile phone is just a marketing gimmick.
There is no indication that Kevin is asking Philip to put the surplus perfumes in a new location.
