The New Starbucks Ads

Have you seen the new Starbucks 30-second spots? There are three of them by agency Wieden & Kennedy, Portland, Oregon. They received rave reviews by AdAge's Garfield and I must say I am inclined to agree. (http://adage.com/garfield/post?article_id=122340) We just completed our final proposals for my Advertising Competition class and I can only hope that our suggestions would render something similar. Two thumbs up for an advertising-free company who managed to extend the feel of their brand rather successfully into a new media (for them) marketing campaign!

I also thought those of you who frequent the Hill might get a kick out of the content of this particular ad... ;-) But seriously, it's very well done. Way to show the product benefit guys!

  1. You're right. I like the ad. It's sweet and simple. It evokes a pleasant smile.

  2. Have you seen the new commercial for SYNC (the in dash car thing). It totally reminded me of this. Check it out!
