Evian Seeking Return to Relevance, New Head Marketer
Posted in: UncategorizedEvian may have made a splash with its dancing, roller skating babies but the brand is still struggling for relevance in the U.S.
Awareness of the brand is strong and the “Live Young” campaign has been extremely popular, said Eric O’Toole, president-GM at Danone Waters North America, which imports and markets Evian. Between 1978, when distribution in the U.S. began, and 2000, the brand grew consistently. But in the decade that followed, Evian’s relevance tapered off — it’s stabilized in recent years thanks, in part, to the launch of the Baby & Me advertising effort.
“The brand allowed other brands like Fiji and Smartwater to define the game and keep the pressure on. They innovated on bottle shape and the use of influencers in the space,” said Mr. O’Toole. “While they gained steam, Evian was quietish. Share began to swing and the brand now finds itself No. 3 behind Fiji and Smartwater.”

The Manning Brothers Flex Funk For DirecTV
Posted in: Uncategorized
On the football field, Peyton Manning runs the Denver Broncos with a robotic efficiency fitting of a man with a giant, shiny forehead. His younger brother Eli roams the sidelines for the New York Giants with the mopey glare of a six-year-old who wants to pick his nose but can’t because cameras are watching. Usually, the funniest thing about the Manning brothers is that they’re so unfunny. They’re stiff and white. But every once in a while – don’t forget the acclaimed “Football Cops” – they unleash some comedy genius for a football-related commercial.
The newest addition to the Manning oeuvre is a fake R&B music video created by Grey for DirecTV and NFL Sunday Ticket. #footballonyourphone. Remember that hashtag. It’s going viral, because a company that deals with an incredibly popular sport got two huge stars to subvert their normal personalities and completely buy-in to a goofy campaign that could’ve been an abandoned Lonely Island digital short. In the first 12 hours or so after it hit Youtube, the clip reared in 100k views.
Everything about the spot is smart, right down to the tiny Archie Manning cameo and the best/worst hair design you’ll see this year until American Hustle, starring Bradley Cooper’s curled terribleness, hits theaters. Peyton may be known as the more gregarious of the two brothers, but Eli is a vastly underrated comedian in his commercials. He ends up stealing this show with some odd riffs on milk, blouses, and Alexander Graham Bell. Pay attention, brands: This is how you go viral.
