TD Bank's Ingenious Advertising Loophole
TD Bank has masterfully leveraged a creative loophole to showcase some of the world's most iconic brands in its latest advertising campaign. The campaign features street billboards with cutaway sections that reveal logos of giants like Nike, Coca-Cola, and Apple, promoting stock investment in a visually striking manner.
The Visual Trick That Captivates
The campaign's brilliance lies in its visual trickery: a large green poster with a strategically placed cut-out square. Through creative photography, these billboards offer a glimpse of a well-known logo behind the poster, making the ads instantly recognizable and engaging.
Sidestepping Legal Restrictions
This innovative approach cleverly sidesteps potential legal restrictions by not directly using the brands' logos in its advertising. Instead, it implies their presence, allowing TD Bank to associate its brand with these global icons without infringing on copyright laws.
Promoting Fractional Shares
The tagline "Own a piece of it" ties back to TD's product offering—the ability to buy fractional shares of big brands. This makes investing more accessible, allowing users to start with as little as $1, removing the barrier of large upfront costs.
Behind the Campaign
Created by Ogilvy Canada and shot by Martin Girard for Shoot Studio, this campaign is a testament to the power of creative marketing in conveying complex financial products in an accessible and engaging way.
