Have you met Tyrrells? They make crisps, and they occasionally make jokes on Twitter. We take a look at their recent viral comedy success, involving Jacob Rees-Mogg and a bag of Walkers crisps… Tyrrells’ comedy social media marketing isn’t quite consistent enough for us to declare them officially ‘AWESOME ON SOCIAL MEDIA’ and join the likes of Innocent in our hall of fame. But they’re certainly showing promise. Even before their recent big success, we
Synopsis ITV have brought back their ‘Eat Them To Defeat Them’ campaign, which is aimed at kids to get them to eat more veg. The campaign will feature six 10 second ads, all of which will have an item of wayward veg that a child has to bravely eat in order to defeat it. One ad shows a carrot knocking over a glass of milk, while another shows peas becoming unruly and trying to escape
You know the drill by now, don’t you? Every now and then, we take a break from reviewing the latest Funny Ads to introduce you to a brand we think is AWESOME ON SOCIAL MEDIA! Today, it’s the turn of MoonPie. Their Twitter feed reads like it’s written by a thirteen year-old who’s simultaneously bored and blessed with an overactive imagination. Weirdness and self-deprecating humour abound — punctuation, not so much. Maybe they pay them
Look, we know you come here for our Funny Ads analysis — but once in a while, we like to take a quick look at a brand we think is AWESOME ON SOCIAL MEDIA! Innocent Drinks. Makers of juices, smoothies, dairy free alternative milks, coconut water, drinks with bubbles in and something called a ‘refresher’. These are all tasty, good for you and never made from concentrate etcetera etcetera. In fact, I probably could’ve bought
As comedy writers, we value laughter above nearly everything else. So yeah, we’ll admit it. Every now and again, we make a joke that takes aim at somebody specific — but we always think carefully about how it might make them feel and, fundamentally, we try to be kind. Unfortunately, not everyone shares this ideal, and this is abundantly clear when it comes to social media. We interrupt our usual programming of Funny Ads analysis
Marmite’s marketing over the last couple of years has centred around the idea of turning ‘Marmite haters’ into ‘Marmite lovers’ via hypnosis. It’s a funny idea, and most of the ads they’ve released on the theme have been reasonably entertaining. This twenty second spot is short and sweet (or should that be ‘short and salty’?) and tells you everything you need to know. These people hate Marmite, they watch the hypnosis film, they love Marmite.
Marmite’s marketing over the last couple of years has centred around the idea of turning ‘Marmite haters’ into ‘Marmite lovers’ via hypnosis. Most of the ads on this theme have been mildly entertaining — we didn’t love them, or hate them, but we did feel they failed to capitalise on the inherently funny core idea of this campaign. This ad is the exception. Marmite took the idea of subliminal messaging one step further. Comedy is
Marmite’s marketing over the last couple of years has centred around the idea of turning ‘Marmite haters’ into ‘Marmite lovers’ via hypnosis. We’ve enjoyed lots of the ads in this series, even if we felt that most of them didn’t fully turn the funny core idea into consistently funny video content. This particular three-minute film is the culmination of Marmite’s genuine social experiment, in which they invited the Marmite haters to apply to be hypnotised
Synopsis The world is out of sorts, but maybe it just needs a Snickers. Luckily, we have a huge one of those. Review When Snickers released the teaser trailers for this, we wondered whether the payoff was going to be worth it. It is. Their brilliant “You’re Not You” campaign has now been supersized – so that instead of fixing a moody footballer who’s not himself without his snickers, we’re fixing the entire world –
Synopsis This is Pringles’ third attempt at getting us on board with the rather odd idea of ‘flavour stacking’ via a funny Super Bowl commercial. And they may have finally cracked it. Review This feels like Pringles finally found the right angle – a suitably mad way to sell us on their mad idea. Of course, it’s a direction that only works off the backs of its predecessors that didn’t quite land. By showing willingness
