15 years of Axe Effect: the world’s most sexist advertising campaign
Posted: November 7, 2011 Filed under: Ambient, Argentina, Australia, Axe, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Case History, Chile, France, Germany, Guerilla, Illustration, India, Italy, Mexico, Poland, Press/Outdoor, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, The Nederlands, UK, USA | Tags: Ammirati Puris Lintas, axe effect, BBH, body spray, deodorant, funny, get a girlfriend, Lowe, Lowe Bull, Lowe Hunt, Lowe Pirella, Lowe Porta, Lynx Effect, Unilever, VegaOlmosPonce Leave a comment »From Unilever Website: “In the film The Matrix, Keanu Reeves is given two choices. He can either take a blue pill and wake up in the morning as if nothing has happened or pop a red pill and enter the unpredictable ‘wonderland’ of the Matrix. As millions of guys around the world know, Axe has taken the red pill.”
The “Axe Effect” is one of the most famous claim in the world. This so called effect is supposed to draw women in hordes to any male who has sprayed himself liberally with the Axe deodorant. The advertisements are very slick and usually display a normal male but with oodles of self-assurance as an Axe user. The females get irresistibly drawn to this male implying that Axe acts like a nasal aphrodisiac.
The Axe brand of deodorants is from Unilever and is primarily targeted at 15 to 25 year old males. The brand portrays normal yet cool, trendy and confident, a positioning that is aspirational to the target segment. And the portrayed outcome where the girls flock to the Axe user is, well let’s just say very desirable. At a more subtle level, the Axe Effect also acts on the confidence levels of the user. The very act of being associated with the brand serves to boost the ego.
In the past couple of years, we have seen a slew of copy cat brands hit the market. But the theme for the advertisements remains the same. Guy sprays himself with the deodorant. Girls find themselves inexplicably drawn to the guy. There are slight variants but for the most part, involuntary seduction forms the core. The one notable difference though is that all these newbies use hunks as opposed to the regular guys which are a stable for the Axe advertisements. This strategy has proven very effective for the brand. It comes across as approachable and it acts like a confidante and friend to its users. While everyone would love to be friends with a celebrity, there would still be a distance or an aloofness that would prevent a close relationship. Axe bridges this very gap effectively, and yet keeps the dream of getting a Charlie’s angel some day. It is for this very reason that Axe continues to be the market leader in its category.

Axe Deodorant – Get a Girlfriend Campaign 2007

This campaign is a new interpretation of “The Axe Effect”. It shows how guys are wasting time with silly activities when they should rather be getting a girlfriend with the help of Axe. The first ad shows a guy posing proudly with his prize winning Yorkshire Terrier at a dog show. The next ad features two art students re-enacting a computer game scene in front of a blackboard. The final ad shows two guys that are holding their own Scalextric Formula One Driver’s Championship.



This campaign is a new interpretation of “The Axe Effect”. It shows how guys are wasting time with silly activities when they should rather be getting a girlfriend with the help of Axe. In each execution we have placed a “Get a Girlfriend” sticker on a mock article in community newspapers. The articles featured a loser who has either become a highland dancing champion, attempted to break the world record for balancing a milk bottle on his head or been a runner-up at a Star Wars costume competition.

Ogilvy Mexico for Mattel – Little car, great unconventional ideas
Posted: October 4, 2011 Filed under: Agency, Ambient, Case History, Design, Direct, Guerilla, Mexico, Promotion | Tags: Ambient, Big Boy, Case History, great unconventional ideas, Guerilla, Hot Wheels, little car, little hand, Machbox, Mattel, Mexico, Miguel Angel Ruiz, Ogilvy, Outdoor, speedway, track tape, unconventional, Victor Alvarado 1 Comment »Matchbox Toy Car – LITTLE HAND
Brief
To promote the fact that Matchbox makes the most realistic scale model toy cars.
Creative execution
We developed stickers of human hands that were placed on different car windows, on parking lots, malls, toystores, supermarkets and streets. The position in which the fingers were placed simulated the hand of a kid grabbing the car, as if he is about to play with it
Results
This effort helped create brand awareness, primarily by word of mouth and media exposure.

Hot Wheels – STANDS
Brief
Hot Wheels needed one new-media space that could interact closer with kids allowing the new strategy to be positioned: “Hot Wheels has all the adrenaline and speed of car races in scale”.
Creative execution
Mexican boys are used to getting together with friends in the streets and park squares to play “the little road” on the sidewalks. Starting off from this insight, we developed stickers pretending to be people seated watching a car race but in a similar scale to the Hot Wheels Cars. These items were stuck where this “little road” game took place; then kids played and experienced the new brand strategy.
Results
This action increased the brand awareness and made sales grow up to 30% versus the former year.

Hot Wheels – SPEEDWAY
Insights, Strategy & the Idea
Hot Wheels is a brand that creates great experiences and amazing creative advertising, this way, fathers and children can identify our brand and make it his own.
Our target enjoy speed and challenge, they have the perception that Hot Wheels are small cars that help to express this.
The idea works because nobody can ignore this and everybody wants to tell his friends or relatives how amazing it can be.
The consumer feels part of Hot Wheels, being part of a toy that is generating a brand experience.
Creative Execution
Two giant children shape structures were placed in Mexico-Cuernavaca speedway. They make you live the experience of being inside a Hot Wheels.
Results and Effectiveness
We continued with the leadership brand positioning, communicating their goal about not selling a product but the fame that Hot Wheels obtained through an ad.
This caused that this piece of communication were mentioned in blogs, social networks, websites and local media. This was not only an outdoor piece, there were also all sorts of unpaid mentions covering different targets we wanted to achieve.

Hot Wheels – TRACKTAPE
For more than 40 years, Hot Wheels products have been a children´s favorite. Although extremely fun, tracks don´t have the immediacy and portability of playing as cars do. How to invite kids to play with Hot Wheels cars and tracks whenever, wherever? We developed the Track Tape. A simple, economic and fun product that allows kids to transform every place into a true race track. Besides, the Track Tape works as advertising, placed exactly where the target is by the own target market
