That’s when consumers buy on price and habit, which can spell the end of brand growth.
The problem. Tide for the past four years had only advertised mundane stain-fighting messages. Such creative indifference hardly did justice to an iconic brand so cool that Kevin Roberts, CEO of Tide agency Saatchi & Saatchi, wrote in his book, Love marks. The Future Beyond Brands. "I saw Neil Young in a recording studio wearing a sleeveless T-shirt with a Tide logo, and it just screamed possibilities."
So, in an attempt to cultivate Tide’s inner "love mark," new ads now dismiss the notion that laundry detergent is a mere commodity. Instead, they reflect P&G’s conviction that the " relationship" women—they’re
A. is no longer a dominating cash cow of P&G
