Ketel One Deprecates Clientele, One Full Page Ad at a Time

In a campaign that’s been running for quite some time, a tongue-in-cheek series of ad campaigns by Ketel One does away with the hot chicks and the cool-looking dewy bottles of vodka. Instead, they’re buying out whole billboards and pages in magazines to deliver what’s typically a one- or two-sentence statement with no calls to action or attempts to glamourize their product. In fact, the ads are downright insulting. Our personal favorite is the one that says “There you go again, leading by example.” This one is pretty funny too but apparently some people don’t seem to think the campaign’s that great.

That’s okay. The people who matter know it’s “drawing board,” not “drawing bar.” Now we’re going to raid the fridge and lead by example. – Contributed by Angela Natividad
