Cadbury-Schweppes is in a stew. I rang the compamy seven times to complain about the ‘Solo-Strong’ advertisement which emphasises the ‘extra manly kick of Guarana’. This was featured endlessly during the recent cricket tests between Australia and South Africa. None of the relevant managers, including the Brand Manager for Solo were ever available.

My comment was why is Cadbury-Schweppes promoting an alkaloidal drug for young men? Their response was that Guarana supplies caffeine which does not sell if offered as caffeine. When I remarked that Guarana is a well-known veterinary diarroea inhibitor they suddenly shut up.

Another example of government deregulation that has gone horribly wrong. Loathsome Cadbury-Schweppes needs to examine its big fat navel and re-examine its products. The advertising world has changed since the financial meltdown, you idiots!

Have a look at the new Schweppes website which is an extension of the Schweppes burst TV campaign and is dedicated to celbrating Australia’s vibrant food and beverage culture. The website encourages users to ’slow down’ and savour some of the best drinking and dining experiences.

That is uber impressive Slo-Mo footage. Cool!

There’s a small technical glitch though. Schweppervescence causes bubbles and not cascading droplets of water (or whatever the liquid was in the balloons).

In order to fully capture the eruption of Schweppervescence bubbles theme, I imagine a large swimming pool filled with thousands of advertising executives after a free lunch. It’s sort of like the ‘Blazing Saddles’ campfire scene except underwater…

Oh, that was so wrong of me! I apologise.

The Ad is clever and special.
