There on the conveyer belt lay the TV spot—a trembling, pathetic thing that did not like being looked at directly.
A sort of marketing Frankenstein—chunks of different departmental agendas and man-dates, all sewn together by focus groups and researchers into some-thing that looked like a TV spot but was, in fact, an abomination.
We should have hammered a spike through its heart right there. This is about a TV advertising campaign that someone should have hammered a spike through its heart.
In the end you get 30 seconds of delivering the list of things you feel like you need to show … instead of using 30 seconds to show why your brand is something distinct someone should spend their hard earned money on.
As a European I find the commercial nauseating and dumb. It caters to 13 year olds. No one in Sweden looks like that. Accent is phony and not Swedish. Typical American humor …. And then there is this Gevalia commercial which attempts to be quirky but instead ends up hiding the real point … which is they want to say that people prefer Gevalia over a cup of Starbucks. The Swedish character was born of the challenge of distinguishing a premium coffee in a crowded marketplace.
It comes across as stupidly serious. By the way … advertising agencies get paid to avoid the fear and uncover ways to say things in a relevant distinctive way. Certain visuals are just old. Somewhere out there is a Home for Tired Old Visuals. Sitting there in rocking chairs on the porch are visuals like Uncle Sam, a devil with a pitchfork, and a proud lion, just rocking back and forth waiting for someone to use them in an ad once again. People used to love us. Learn what iconography is overused in your category, and avoid it.
A hand coming out of water means HELP. A metaphor can help make it real. They get a lot of work done quickly and simply. The thing is, the best people in the business use research to generate ideas, not to judge them.
They use it at the beginning of the whole advertising process to find out what to say. All that may distinguish the two is the advertising you propose. Nothing else. I have to think about it … because there should be, no, there is no excuse for having crappy work for a great potential brand. In other words … the work has failed the brand. In a crowded category … in a world where almost everything seems almost commodity-like … inevitably when you introduce a product or a brand … you are in the decommoditizing business.
Every coffee lover sees themselves in the vignette, everyone understands, and it says they want … REALLY want … that cup of coffee.
