Has anyone else noticed the increase in manly men ads. It’s like the guy with the burly voice and strong presence is becoming the mascot for every brand out there. Among the many there is the Most Interesting Man in the World for Dos Equis; The Man Your Man Could Smell Like for Red Spice and; Mayhem, the guy from the Allstate commercial. While they do create a great buzz and comical relief amongst the viewers, what about the ones that just plain suck?!
I love Red Spice, Dos Equis, and Allstate from their original ingenuity but to all the other brands out there who are jumping on the bandwagon for the sake of being cool, we see right through your wannabe schemes and it’s not working. In fact, you’re actually doing yourself a disservice.
Yeah , I’m talking to you Dr. Pepper . It looks like you had to send something to the press in less than ten minutes so you decided to copy every other great idea but change up the delivery.
