Multix's New Campaign Calls On Aussies to Choose Their Alfoil 'Wisely'
How often do you mull over which alfoil to purchase? You probably just grab the first one you see, right? Putting some quirkiness into a category that is typically dull and conservative, a new TV spot from Multix via DDB Melbourne is a light-hearted look at the consequences of not choosing the right type of alfoil.
Says Stu Turner, ECD, DDB Melbourne: "We liked the idea of creating a character that would get very upset when you didn't make the right choice and would punish you accordingly, using alfoil in creative ways of course.
Off the back of its strong relationship with Multix, part of the McPherson's Group, DDB Melbourne has also recently started working with Dr Lewinn's and A'kin (also part of McPherson's).
Says Rebecca Lowth, marketing manager, Multix: "The alfoil and baking paper aisle in a grocery store is just a sea of the same colours and no real defined differentiation. So most people don't even think about which one to choose.
"However, Multix is the market leading bags/wraps/foils brand and we are constantly evolving to meet savvy Australian's household needs. Our alfoil is better because it's made from a superior, higher cost alloy, and with this new campaign we wanted to raise awareness of that."
"The positioning of "Choose wisely" we hope will enter the mind of the consumer at the point of purchase, in a fun way that makes them laugh. We have taken the knight character into social as well with some really strange and humorous content to further extend the campaign."
