Results and Effectiveness

Creative Execution

We used TV and Radio to reinforce the message to the channels that are utilised the most by our consumers.



Insights, Strategy & the Idea



The creative strategic solution was based on the insight of "What happened to you?" Since our targeted consumer for this campaign was the Mexican Newcomer, it is understood that this consumer didn't drink watered down light beer in Mexico, and now that they are in the United States they are drinking watered-down light beer.

Therefore, we found in the Papas (Parents) figure a voice that could really try to talk some sense to the consumer. By using the Papas we found an authority figure to reprimand them for drinking watered down light beer and at the same time recognise them for all the sacrifices they do in the USA and deliver a strong message that if the want to drink light beer they should drink - Tecate Light!
