I sorta like the blue whale, but I don't get this one. Just that the alarm clock is nothing compared to the redwood? Why? Where's the connection? Don't say it's because the Taureg can get you there because then what am I supposed to think of the blue whale and the boss? Just doesn't make sense to me is all.
You have to hate advertising in order to truly love it.
"The alarm clock is nothing compared to the redwood" i believe that it is a metaphore to show that maybe your work and what you believe is important, maybe they are insignificant compared to other things, like enjoying life, especially life in the outdoors so "put life in perspective" check again what really is important in life
this one is kinda confusing when compared with the blue whale
I like the other one more
"enjoying life" or "seizing the day" is an overly common theme in automotive advertising, but I think this ad expresses it in an original way. Not sure why some of you are having trouble grasping this one. Seems pretty simple. Too often, we allow our alarm clocks, like our bosses, to determine what we do almost every day of our lives. We let a $10 plastic clock overrule our own circadian clock. Put into perspective next to the grandness of life, it isn't quite so significant.
Whatever, they need help...
Add insult to injury then burn the candle at both ends.
Just a question iT-iS-i, what "help" would you suggest?
A new perspective on advertising for automobiles...
Add insult to injury then burn the candle at both ends.
mmm, thought so...
OH！Here is another commonplace idea.
