Hi

I was pretty impressed by a recent mail I got which had some brilliant Advertisements, I have short listed some, mainly the ones which speaks for a social cause.

Ad industry has been growing in technology and creativity year after year. Just an ad with a big celebrity doesn’t touch the heart of people.

Some ads which I still remember right from my child hood are,

  1. Nirma Washing powder – A good rhym like song
  2. Fevicol ads – Many good ones here – Eg. Unbreakable egg laid by hen eating grain from fevicol basket. 
  3. Colgate – The tag “Preferred by Dentist” has made the toothpaste so popular
  4. Complan – Focussing on the growth of height – Will tempt parents who need children to grow fast.
  5. Rasna – The cute girl
  6. Preethi mixie – in Tamil Nadu – “Preethi ku naan guarantee”
  7. Titan – Brand Music
  8. Airtel – Right from mobile to Digital TV now – The AR Rahman magic music has lifted its brand
  9. Saint Gobain – The Monk puffing out air to find the glass and the washing woman throwing water to clean the glass
  10. Vodafone – Hutch dog – “Wherever you go, our network follows”
  11. Boost – Boost is the secret of my energy – Our energy – Made cricket fans (esp Sachin fans like me) kids to go for it – They also often promote the brand by giving Cricket bat and ball for it. I ve even waited very patiently for it and insisted my parents to go for Boost coz of this.
  12. Lion Dates – Ads palyed a huge role when the Dates business was just on – Again in tamil – “Singam pola strength enakku”
  13. Gold Winner oil 
  14. Garnier – Take Care
  15. Raymond – The complete Man – Classy ad impressing the big boys.
  16. Fair & Lovely – Fairnes in 6 weeks – I dont think any middle class and up home would have been without this product before the recent surge in cosmetic industry.

I have  a small poll here to choose your favourite ad of the above mentioned. You can choose multiple choices too. 

Cheers,

CK.
