So, grab your eclipse glasses, and bask in the brilliance of these creative advertising and marketing campaigns!
Creative Eclipse Advertisements Roundup
Krispy Kreme
Producing a special-edition donut - now that's something I could look at all day 😋!
Sun Chips
When your name just fits the event too perfectly to pass miss it. This special edition flavor was available for purchase only during the 5 minutes of totality. #scarcity
Moon Pie
A little creative analogy comparing the moon covering the sun to a boxing match. The Moon Pie 2024 Total Eclipse Survival Kit comes with 2 eclipse glasses in addition to the regular chocolates they sell.
Blue Moon
Again, a name too good to pass this opportunity by without making some noise. They had a giveaway to one lucky winner of enough free beer to last them for 20 years - until the 2044 total solar eclipse. They also sold a Solar Eclipse Kit with glow in the dark glasses, flashlights, and edible moon dust ✨ - to brighten your eclipse-watching party.
Pizza Hut
A designer had fun here!
(Also, can we talk about how cheap non-Kosher 🍕 pizza is?!)
Smoothie King
Cuz who doesn't want free stuff?
(I would have but Berry Blitz on the same line and moved Smoothie down to accommodate it, having 3 lines of text but at least it would read correctly)
Go RVing
The perfect event to play into your marketing when your audience is all about travel adventures. They even created an eclipse trip planning guide. Now that's understanding and serving your target audience. 🤌
KFC
Another on-theme clever design. This the caption: Stare away.
Also note how the logo is not only not "bigger" but even difficult to read 🤩.
Greeting from Sunny Cleveland
This humorous video is a twist on the classic tourist promo showcasing all of Cleveland's finest attractions and views (especially the outdoor sightseeing ones 😂) - while in the near pitch-black of the total eclipse. It cleverly highlights Cleveland's best features, while also highlighting its unique position for watching the eclipse.
