Timeless principle

Own the visual convention shared by the entire category.

The idea

Claim that every spotless clothing commercial is secretly an advertisement for Tide.

Why it works

The campaign invades car, beer, fragrance and insurance advertising using one observation: clean clothes are everywhere. Each parody expands Tide’s territory while repeating the same simple joke. Competitors’ polished imagery becomes evidence for the brand.
