Nice idea, but not a good message.

2 options: you are either way an account or a failed creative who doesn't appreciate good work from other creative teams.

Mad props to the client for having an awesome sense of humor and not taking themselves so seriously.

I have seen similar campaigns in the past where they spoofed the cliched fragrance/perfume advertising. But I still like these a lot. Sure, it's a borrowed interest, but the concept relies heavily on it. It also has a very clear message and beautiful art direction. If you can't look at this campaign in a humorous light and feel the need to nitpick and be negative about it, I suggest an enema for your brain.

Well spoken JPL! Remember the ad for Stella Artois (reassuringly expensive) with the naked guy holding a bottle of SA? Heading: "Poor homme". That's humor in the same category. Maybe this one is even better.

brilliant print campaign for that special kind of product ! thumbs up !

one should not take life so seriously - as one will not come out of it alive.

indeed. just one question why do you think that only when we are 50+ we are cleaning toilets? does it mean when you clean you leave your youth behind... ?!

Guest's picture

It probably would not have worked as well with a hot cleaning woman. It's much funnier like this.

Good ad by the way. Fresh.

it definitely helps to make a non unique product in a low involvement category more unique. Through their differentiated communication in that particular category. If one can't differentiate by benefit (nearly every toilet clener is cented), differentiate the communication and thus highlighting the benefit! Lene_R_Online

Great concept. It's been thought of and tried before but never executed as well. Great job to Jay Grey.
