Powerade, the brand responsible for hydrating athletes at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, is launching a brand new on-pack promotion, giving away a Powerade Olympic Games Sports Bottle free with every purchase. Supported by a new TVC, outdoor and POS, the campaign aims to excite consumers in the run up to the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Year: 2012
Jim Beam is helping Australians unleash their animal nature—the bourbon brand has launched a Tarzan-inspired bizarre campaign dubbed ‘It’s Time,’ which is rolling out across a number of platforms including TV, cinema, print, online and ambient point of sale. Developed by Sydney-based agency The Works, the new $5m advertising effort is revolving around the idea that the time has come to get together with friends for a glass of fine bourbon. And here, old, primeval methods of summoning mates beat modern approaches like mobile phone calls, texting or writing an e-mail.
adidas Originals is going wild with the vibrant palette in the spring/summer 2012 adicolor campaign, conceived by Portland-based Kamp Grizzly and dubbed ‘Step Into Color.’ The new promotional effort includes digital elements and a commercial (15- and 30-second spots) featuring NBA guard Eric Gordon and radio personality Charlamagne Tha God. While it’s not as big as adidas’ ‘all in’ massive promotion, it also supports the brand’s general philosophy—be young, be active, be creative, be bright. The promotion, which is encouraging consumers to explore the wide range of the brand’s colourful sport outfits, will be rolling out in the USA through April 7 and will be not only the source of encouragement, but will also provide people with an opportunity to win a customized adicolor kit.
