Creative That Cracks the Code
By Sanket Badhe
Earlier web browser:
thoroughly polluted by mortgage-refinancing and weight-loss ads.
Nowadays web browser:
ad-optimizing technologies and filter-defying product placement, search-based ad serves,
real-time media bidding, and location-based features.
Hence it would be easy to conclude that:
six
campaigns
that stand
out because
each has a
clever idea at
its core
1 2 3 4 5 6
Advertising creative's have always known the power
of memes, Wendy’s tagline “Where’s the beef?” were
picked up and repurposed from preschools to
presidential debates.
Wonderful Pistachios campaign: The campaign started out conventionally,
using celebrities, and was highly successful. National TV spots in its first
year yielded a 233% increase in sales.
Mauka Mauka
Memes
In his paper “An Anatomy of a YouTube Meme,” Limor
Shifman of Hebrew University analyzes 30 videos that
went viral and finds major commonalities: ordinary people,
flawed masculinity, humour, simplicity, repetitiveness, and
whimsical content.
Indian Context: Mauka Mauka
A Pakistani fan who had been waiting for years to celebrate the
win against India and burn some crackers gets frustrated and
decides to join the South African brigade. Later when South
Africa also loses against India he get rids of the South African
jersey and finds somebody ringing the bell. When he steps out to
see that it's a UAE supporter and he is handing over the UAE
jersey to cheer against India he immediately swaps the team. The
series of funny ads by Start Sports is hilarious
21 3 4 5 6
Plenty of advertising is already embedded in electronic games.
The new wrinkle is that gaming can be embedded in ads—
perhaps the only hope of engaging some people’s interest long
enough to get a message across.
31 2 4 5 6
business world has rediscovered the concept, most
people celebrate crowd sourcing as a way to get
fresher, better ideas. And they’re right: If a company
uses Tongal or a similar platform to solicit and sift
through thousands of creative submissions, the odds
are good that it will be rewarded with some real
gems.
If you focus on maximizing engagement, you’ll
realize that the ideal time commitment to be asked
of the crowd measures in minutes. If you expect
people to spend hours on beautifully rendered
creative, you’ve set the bar too high, because 99%
of the public lacks the time and confidence to
engage at all.
Campaign
brand launched a 100-day series of cookie designs pegged to each day’s news. It
invited people to nominate news pegs every morning and to vote later in the day for
their favorite designs. In the meantime, highly talented designers cooked up the
creamy execution. With the bar so low for crowd participation, anyone could offer up
thoughts
Sharing of Oreo’s Facebook page
rose by 4,400% compared with
the three months before the
campaign’s launch.
Indian context:
Crash the PEPSI IPL
Response is here:
41 2 3 5 6
Kia Motors America aired a fun little ad for its Soul model
car. To evoke the drab mindlessness of the typical daily
commute, it showed roads filled with hamster wheels.
When a Soul drove up alongside one and its window slid
down, the hamsters in the car, chilling to their hip tunes,
showed everyone “a new way to roll.”
Kia has stuck with the hamsters since, and in every outing
they’re funny but not uproariously so. New research suggests
that might be key to their product-selling success. “excessive
amounts of entertainment” tend to backfire and
actually reduce an ad’s persuasiveness.
“There is not a single humorous
line in three of the most
influential books in the world,
namely, the Bhagavad-Gita, bible
and the Sears, Roebuck
catalog.”
“Be Funny but not too Funny”
“You can entertain a million
people and not sell one of
them.”
Indian context: 5 star Cadbury
Ramesh-Suresh advertisement was most recollected. The
advertisements did not influence them to purchase the
product.
51 2 3 4 6
Sadly, most “socially responsible” goods cost more to
produce than alternatives that leave the world worse off,
and those costs translate into higher prices.
So as marketers become more authentically committed
to corporate responsibility goals, expect to see more of
them using their messaging powers to change consumer
attitudes and behaviour.
Marks and Spencer: M&S and Oxfam
launched Shwopping in April 2012, a new idea that makes
it even easier to give your unwanted clothes a second
life. In the first year you've donated more than 6.9
million garments in M&S and Oxfam shops, which is
potentially worth £4.5 million for Oxfam.
Indian context: CSR
Indian context: CSR
Project Shiksha - A Soulful
Marketing Exercise :
Shiksha was among the biggest media
initiatives of its kind, with the objective
of increasing the sales of P&G brands in
the lean months when media support to
most brands is the leas
Campaign message:
Securing your child’s future through education The
exercise intended to give the message, “P&G gives you
an opportunity to educate your child free of cost,” to
P&G’s consumers.
61 2 3 4 5
Content providers maintain an uneasy alliance
with advertiser. Both sides know that ads enjoy
greater attention when they are hard
to separate from the content that surrounds them.
And both sides need the advertising to succeed.
Neiman Marcus and Target
After the retailers Target and Neiman Marcus teamed up on some
merchandise, they decided to advertise it on ABC’s drama
series Revenge. First they opted for a “takeover” of the program,
meaning that every ad in the hour-long segment was theirs.
Then, to make the most of that sole sponsorship, they hired the
show’s cast to perform in character in five long-form
commercials. These were unquestionably ads (the Target–
Neiman Marcus line was prominent in them), but by borrowing
all the elements viewers had chosen to enjoy and stringing the
spots into a “story within a story,” the marketers made them hard
to skip.

Indian context
the laddoo munching nine-year-old superboy from
the fictional city of Dholakpur - was first seen on
television half a decade ago. His popularity has
been rising ever since.
The success of the Chhota Bheem series led to all
kinds of merchandising of the character - he was
seen on toys, notebooks, games and even towels.
Green Gold Animation's revenues were around Rs
20 crore in 2012.
