Beetle's whimsical ads capture viewers' hearts

Article Abstract:

Volkswagen AG's (VW) Beetle whimsical ads created by Arnold Communications are capturing the attention of viewers. A consumers poll conducted in August 1998, for Ad Track, USA Today's exclusive poll, found that the ads were most popular among people living in the eastern part of the US and women. The print ads for the VW Beetle bagged the top award at the International Advertising Festival in Cannes, France, in early summer of 1998. Liz Vanzura, director of marketing, said VW is targeting drivers of all ages.

Levi's campaign gets tough on consumers

Article Abstract:

Levi's ads produced by TBWA Chiat/Day state "our models can beat up their models" taking aim at Tommy Hilfiger and the doe- eyed, thin bonned models that frequent these ads. The Levi campaign may have missed the mark if it is interested in the 15 to 19 year-old market, as this segment of the population may not be familiar with such old-time stars as Gary Cooper and Marlon Brando.
