  • Taco Bell is a US based fast-food chain. Within just 6 months into its breakfast launch, awareness levels reached those of Burger King, which had been in the breakfast category for about 10 years. On March 23rd, Taco Bell launched their newest campaign themed “Routine Republic”- a short film that mocks Taco Bells direct competitors- specifically Mcdonalds. However, its CEO has stated that sales had improved vastly due to last year’s campaign, which is quite similar to the current campaign. However, the “Routine Republic” campaign is much bigger and louder than the one that preceded it.

  • This week’s most viral video is Durex’s newest campaign video ‘#Connect’. Durex claims that they have found a new piece of tech that can enhance the coitus experience with your loved one.

  • KFC- Australia launched a new campaign called “Chase the taste”. They claim the creative idea was born from testimonials by KFC lovers who said they’ll travel kilometres to eat at a KFC restaurant when they are traveling. “Chase the taste” is a well executed campaign, that shows us the spirit of travelling and that feeling you get when you can experience something you know far far away from your home and still feel like home.
