The Strategy Behind the Campaign

The Power of Emotion

"In a saturated market, brands that manage to establish an emotional connection with their consumers are the ones that thrive." This statement, supported by neuroscience studies, emphasizes the importance of emotions in the decision-making process. Quilmes has understood this principle and designed its campaign to resonate in the hearts of its audience.

"By integrating Franco Colapinto, a rising young talent, the brand not only associates itself with the dynamism of the sport but also targets a young audience seeking authenticity and fresh energy." The spot combines a message of camaraderie and celebration, elements that are fundamental in Latin American culture.

 

Innovation and Modernity

The Quilmes spot is not just a simple promotion; it exemplifies how innovation can transform a brand's perception. "Creativity is the new oil," say marketing experts, and Quilmes has expertly tapped into this resource.

The use of the word "pinta" in the campaign context is a clever wordplay that, in addition to being witty, invites conversation. "The best advertising campaigns are those that get people talking about them," remarks an engagement specialist.

 


The Collectible: An Icon of Desire

The brand activation includes a collectible glass that promises to become an object of desire. "Collectible products generate a sense of belonging and nostalgia that is hard to resist." This glass, bearing Colapinto's signature, is not just a beer vessel; it becomes a symbol of shared experiences among friends and family.

 

"Collecting is a strategy that can establish a lasting relationship between the consumer and the brand." By creating a product that people want to have, Quilmes is not just selling beer; it is selling an experience and a memory.
