VERY CLEVER ADVERTISING

I really like this series of television advertisements. You don't need to understand Thai to understand the story and to enjoy the humour. I wouldn't be surprised if it wins awards. It's clever, subtle and indirect. Watch all three videos in order and see if you agree.







And in case you're wondering the product is Nature Gift which is a coffee that claims to as a dietary aid. I'll let you know if it works because yes, I got some just because I liked the ad. I'm a marketers dream !

Madison Avenue has nothing on Thai TV ads. They are hilarious, and incredibly creative, oftentimes telling a story without words. Of course, having a glimpse of Thai culture helps, like the hissy fit "Johnny" had signifying a sea-change in his "fan".

These are classics.
