Why not use google’s annotation tool
Here’s the deal. Boston Market throws an ad up on YouTube that clearly has a guy mouthing $5.99 but saying $4.99. Here is the video:
I read about it here. The thinking on AgencySpy is that what Boston Market is doing is bad. Even though they are offering $1 off.
To me, it seems silly to try to pass this off. Instead, I think they should have simply used Google Annotation Tool (add over him “We just reduced our offer!”). Then, they don’t have to re-cut the ad, but they get credit for the better offer, and maybe add a bit of personality to a pretty bland spot.
In fact, I’m suprised more brands aren’t using the tool to add context to the ad. It’s clickable TV. I think it’s especially valid on older, heritage spots. It could be a pop up video like look into old marketing.
Choose your own adventure is just one tactic.
