In a bold move that has the Asia Pacific advertising world buzzing, Colgate Maxfresh, in collaboration with Ogilvy and Wavemaker, has unveiled an ‘Ulta Pulta’ (upside-down) campaign that’s as refreshing as their toothpaste. This innovative approach has not just turned pages but also heads, as it reimagines the traditional print ad in the Sunday Times of India.
A Fresh Twist on Mornings
As readers settled in for their routine Sunday perusal, they were met with a startling surprise. Every element of the first page, from articles to headlines, was flipped upside down. This clever trick, a brainchild of the creative minds at Ogilvy, was more than just a visual gimmick; it was an invitation to shake off the cobwebs of sleep and engage with the content in a novel way.
Narrative Meets Innovation
The intrigue deepened as readers turned the page, greeted by a visual narrative that cleverly tied the ‘Ulta Pulta’ theme together. A man, depicted sleeping amidst the hum of a printing press, with the headline “Neend mein hogaya na ulta-pulta” (Did it become topsy-turvy in sleep?), perfectly encapsulated the essence of the campaign. This strategic storytelling resonates with Colgate Maxfresh’s brand promise of awakening and invigorating the senses.
