Creative Agency Reverse Brief

What are the Client's objectives for the job? Why are we advertising.

Carlton Draught is an already very well known and successful beer. It success has been built around the great beer and amazing advertising campaigns. But while the beer is big and successful it is facing a decrease of sales.

We need a brand new campaign that will reenforce everyones love for carlton draught and remind people how fun and happy the beer really is. We want to do a very humorous, clever and thirst quenching advertisement campaign that will increase the sales.

Who are we talking to?

We are talking to the beer drinkers in Australia, mostly men ages 18 - 50.

They have been drinking carlton in the past for the amazing taste and the joy of friends and good times. We want to remind these people of the great taste and great times that Carton Draught brings. There hasn't been a good advertising campaign for about a year now and people may be forgetting those great emotions of why they buy Carlton Draught.

What do they currently think about our sector/industry and our brand?

Carlton Draught, is very big,successful and well know, it also produces an amazing beer. This should be enough to separate Carlton Draught from other companies but as more players become bigger and better in the market Carlton Draught has the ability to get a bit unknown.

Carlton Draught is in a good position for a big boost to our consumers by reminding them of the great things about carlton once again putting it fresh in their minds.

What do we want them to think?

We want our consumers to think of the advertisements mentally and feel the joy and happiness they do when they see the advertisements.

What do we want them to do?

Buy Carton Draught

What is the single most important proposition?

Made From Beer - Brewery fresh
Having a Carlton, having a good time
Why should they believe it?

  • Carlton Draught is one of Australia's most sold tap and pre-packaged beer.
  • ...
What is the Offer?

The offer could be if you go out and buy a case of Carlton Draught you will receive something free such as a Carlton Draught shirt or stubby holder.

how should we speak to them?

  • The brand character must be humorous and friendly. Need to remind the consumer of having a good time
  • The slogan must be happy and masculine
  • Images must interact with all people regardless of life style, but must not contain anyone under 15 or look under 25 to not accidentally promote underage drinking

Brief - Carton Draught

The Purpose

The purpose of this brief is to advertise Carton Draught and increase the sales of the beer.

The Product

Carlton is looking to increase the sales of Carton draught beer by using this adverting campaign.

Background

The Carlton United Breweries was developed in 1907. In 1946 the beer had been kept in wooden barrels and delivered to pubs by Clydesdale horses (this is where the logo comes from). Now steel kegs and trucks in despite of rioting by horses. IN 1958, the CUB continued its pursuit of futuristic beverage technology with the introduction of tinned and bubbly beer into Australia. In 1967, the beer that was called carton draught was officially named and introduced as packaged beer. In 2004, Carton developed a very successful adverting campaign "Canoe". Carton fraught carful analysed this and discovered carrying the canoe was the ultimate symbol of your man brand.


In 2005, they then realised the advertising campaign "Big Ad". Big Ad has reached 3.5 million viewers online and has won over 30 adverting awards.


In 2006, They Created "flash beer" it was a rip off of 80's dance film flashdance.
