What has been the most effective ad campaign?

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

Something that stays with you, or something that you reference all the time?

Mine is Autoglass Repair Autoglass Replace. Literally, the second my windscreen got a crack this week, I knew i'd just contact them.

They're actually just called 'Autoglass' as well, but i still say the full tagine for the fun of it.

Hands up who's eaten a Flake in the bath 🖐

I can still hear this!

Anyone from Liverpool/Wirral/Southport?

Maincrest Car and Van Hire, seven double three three two o one

708 7080, When you need a cab just let us know, call Davy Liver Cabs

BERRY STREET, TOP OF BOLD STREET, LIVERPOOL! (A carpet company, which name? Wasn't Bogan's...)

The Mortgage Point - 708 0808

Saaayeeers, so fresh we're faaamouuuus.

St John's Shopping Centre is waiting for you, so come on down and spend an hour or two at St John's.

An electric shower is easy to install,you can sit in it lie in it wash your toes .....

When you come to the end of a supermouse to the end of a Birds Eye supermouse crack goes your heart

A mars a day helps you work rest and play

I have so many 80's and 90's advert jingles in my head there is no room for real general knowledge

Probably the safest place to eat it, it gets everywhere.

“You’ll never put a better bit of butter on your knife” (Countrylife butter)

”Charlie says never talk to strangers” (cartoon cat teaching about stranger danger)

Ski yoghurt: “I like Ski, oh I like Ski, oh I like Ski man, cos it’s thick and fruity.”

”Hands that do dishes can be soft as your face with mild green Fairy Liquid”

Just one Cornetto, give it to me, delicious ice cream from Italy

Milk has got a lotta bottle, nice cold ice cold milk

All the jingle ones with the name of the product in probably.

Don't know how effective they were but the NI confidential telephone ads were pretty memorable. Hearing The Cat's In The Cradle will remind most Northern Irish of a certain age of this:

Accrington Stanley
Thank You very much for feeding William

Mr soft

These stick in mind from childhood but I agree we buy any car is very effective.

Hahahaaa I'm sure he was the brother in law of my nana's friend 🤣

It was a milk advert, you’ll be able to find it on YouTube I expect. The fact you can hear it shows how effective it was I guess. It must be a really satisfying job to create adverts that impact people so strongly….says me the finance person 😂

Just sent this to DS, but he didn't know the advert

Ah Bisto…….
Hovis bread

The Detol ad where they try and scare the bejesus out of you when someone has touched some chicken and the proceeds to leave germy, florescent finger marks everywhere. DH takes the piss out of me every time we are cooking chicken as it honestly scares me more than anything!

We love "Chewier than Barrow-in-Furness Bus Depot!" from Chewits, still makes us laugh and has become a household running joke.
Benson & Hedges print ads in the 80s (when they banned overt cigarette advertising) were outstanding, particularly the pyramids one.

I've remembered that the most effective ad for me was for Bounty. A coconut falls on a tropical beach and splits in half. The voiceover says, "Bounty, a taste of paradise".

Not only do those tropical beaches represent paradise for me, but the word Bounty actually tastes of paradise (I have synaesthesia). And I also have a pack of Bounties in my cupboard, with only one left.

Also, Old English Sheepdogs are "Dulux dogs" in our house.

Has anyone mentioned the following ear-worms yet?

”You can’t get quicker than a kwik-fit fitter!
weeeeee’re the ones to trust!”

”Yum-tum yum-tum yum-tum yum-tum yum-tum diddle-i-po!”

”Heinz buildz Britz”

and the “There’s nothing quite like a McDonalds” song!

MALIBU!

de Sun always shine when it pour!

I think the “Back to Sleep” campaign has been pretty successful at reducing SIDS.

Julie knew her killer was the one that sprang to mind when I saw the thread title. Can’t sit in the back seat of a car til this day without thinking of it.
