Ascenda Brand Marketing’s Post

Throwback Thursday: Celebrating the Iconic Cadbury Gorilla Ad 🦍 When we think about marketing legends, it's impossible to overlook the epic Cadbury UK Dairy Milk Gorilla ad from 2007. It was an ad that was as enjoyable as eating a chocolate bar. This classic campaign, featuring a gorilla drumming to Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight," was more than just entertaining—it was a game-changer for Cadbury. 🌟 IMPACT ON SALES: The ad played a crucial role in revitalizing Cadbury's brand image following a challenging period. It drove a remarkable 10% increase in sales, underscoring the power of creative advertising in boosting brand performance. 🎯 MEMORABLE AND EFFECTIVE: Even without featuring chocolate, the ad left a lasting impression, with 76% of viewers recalling it was for Cadbury a decade later. This highlights the importance of creating memorable content that resonates with audiences long after the campaign ends. 🔍 STRATEGIC LESSONS: The Gorilla ad’s success demonstrates the effectiveness of aligning brand messaging with compelling storytelling. It reminds us that powerful, emotive ads can transcend traditional marketing tactics and drive substantial business results. At Ascenda Brand Marketing, we believe in crafting campaigns that not only capture attention but also drive meaningful engagement and results. Let's continue to push the boundaries of creativity and strategic thinking in our marketing efforts! #throwbackthursday #tbt #retroads #cadburygorilla #dairymilk #advertising #marketing #marketingstrategy #marketingexperts #marketingagency #ascendamarketing
