Interesting brands

[Stevie1630]

Just wondering if anyone could think of any brands that are particularly interesting? - maybe in the way they advertise/promote their products?

I think that the best one lately has been the skoda advert with the cake car just for the work that went into making a cake that big!

I like the Asda adverts, like the one with Lisa Tarbuck or Julie Walters and Ian Wright even. Obviously its a set up but its still...........nice x

Marmite - made, in marketing terms, a very brave move by actually highlighting the fact that many despise the product by making a catchphrase out of the fact. ( "You either love it or hate it" )

Silk Cut cigarettes - (prior to the ban on all tobacco advertising) - never actually mentioned the name of the brand in their print and outdoor media ads (that's magazines and billboards to you and me). Some examples here.

One of the most talked about at the moment seems to be the Cadbury one with the gorilla playing the drums.

i like the marmite one, with paddington but i cant stand the one advertising orbit chewing gum, where someone fights the plague acid!!

One of the most talked about is the one for Toilet Paper. Where a sqaurebear is squatting behind at tree wiping from his mouth what should have came from his behind!
