In this 1962 ad by DDB Germany, we see how VW really honed in on the unique shape of the Beetle. Turning a possible negative into a huge selling point. “Ask any hen”. #advertising #vw #beetle

**"Embrace the Future of Advertising with LED Vans! 🚐✨** Today, yet another hoarding broke off and fell on nearby parked cars. Thankfully, no lives were lost, but the financial burden on our client was immense. How long will we continue using these conventional methods of promotion? It's time to move with the times and switch to LED vans for advertising. LED vans offer a more attractive and result-oriented solution. Choose nobility, choose LED vans. Make a smarter choice for your business. 💡 #ledvan #promotion #marketing #outdoor #advertising #showoffadvertisers #corporate #viral #viralvideos News courtesy: @jist.news

What principles form the foundation of your brand identity? . Recognizing your core values and maintaining focus is crucial for a successful strategy, reminding both existing and potential customers of your brand's foundation. Many brands tend to stray from these core values that initially built their identity. This ad resonates with me in terms of Volkswagen's emphasis on quality and the long-term reliability of their vehicles, ensuring they run as smoothly as when they were first built. . #marketing #marketingstrategy #values #valuematters
Bringing back this classic print ad for Das Auto! #GoodAdsMatter Titled ‘Bad Part’, this Volkswagen ad was aimed at selling the brand’s original car parts. For this, VW chose a fun approach to highlight precisely the message they wanted to convey, which has also gone down among some of the brand’s most memorable ads! A crowd of young boys in training who are meant to mirror the exact pattern experiences a hole in uniformity when one in a thousand chooses to not comply. With the tagline, “A bad part affects the entire system,” VW proves its message incontestable through striking visuals that have stood the test of time.

'The greatest ad campaign of the 20th century' In 1959 Volkswagen's "Think Small" campaign reshaped the advertising industry. Here's how: Conventional ads of the time bombarded consumers with features and used a hard-sell approach. However, Volkswagen dared to be different. They embraced minimalism and simplicity, challenging the norm with an honest soft-sell approach. Rather than overwhelming consumers with information Volkswagen left room to breathe, utilizing white space. This drew the eye to the headline and the tiny Beetle. A full stop was placed at the end of the headline, forcing forced the reader to stop and think. "Maybe we got so big because we thought small.” In an era where luxury cars symbolized status and power, the Beetle's humble origins posed a challenge. Instead of shying away from its differences, Volkswagen leaned into them. Think Small marked a shift in the perception of consumers within the advertising industry. Appealing to consumers intelligence, customers were suddenly smart, empowered to make their own decisions. 'The most powerful element in advertising is the truth.' - David Ogilvy #advertising #volkswagen #thinksmall

Which Superbowl ad did the general public like best? It is remarkable that two German automobile companies are at the top here ... But be careful! Likeability alone do not automatically mean effectiveness! Advertising can be creative and funny - but still not communicate the relevant message to the target group. Therefore, the following still applies: Strategy is god of communication! Communication that is not targeted (usually to a decisive buying need) will not be effective. But: Strategy alone is of course not enough. Creativity and professional craftsmanship are also important. How do you rate the two commercials from BMW and VW in terms of effectiveness? https://lnkd.in/dXNVSc7G https://lnkd.in/dPPs3asP Marcus Schögel Torsten Tomczak Prof. Dr. Johanna Gollnhofer Dr. Dennis Vogt Alexander Haldemann Peter Felser Stefan Vogler #werbung #markenführung #advertising

Skoda isn't a joke anymore, or is it? Remember when Skoda was the butt of every other punchline? But look at them now, a prime example of how brands can change perception with a clear strategy and patient, consistent execution. Skoda's story is a lesson in resilience. Even if it did take a quarter of a century. More here https://lnkd.in/etfkUnTS #brand #marketing #narrative #advertising
