It doesn't do your brand much good if ten minutes later someone remembers your ad as a Nike commercial.
they arent positively reinforcing the other brands, so i think even when they do remember the nike commercials, the "not enough" will ring in their heads...also they have adequate visuals for people to remember it as an energy drink commercial. I think it works...
The "not enough" message sounds very much like something Nike would say. The music and voice over also sound like Nike. It would be a much stronger spot if they had come up with a more original execution and look.
I really really like the strategy here: all the fancy gear and the technology (or an expensive drink) won't make you a better athlete. As an edit, though, I feel they could've just gone from the list of things aren't enough to that last awesome shot of "Win from within." I didn't even need to hear the "you explode into the record books etc" since that's the obvious bit. Would've been more goosebumpy with a tighter cut. But overall, a good idea. Like.
Great job. Very nice take on it. But did they even need the product shots in the middle? I think they could've made their point just fine and more elegantly with just the logo and packshot at the end.
You win from within. Very good. So good I 'm amazed noone had come up with it so far.
it's a winning slogan.
I love those kind of ads that promote the human spirit and motivate us as a race to continue after failure.
I love the copy, the photos are Nike look-alikes, the concept is good.
Final result: you are on the right track.
p.s. Gatorade has had as long a history as a sports product as Nike
THERE'S NO HEAVIER BURDEN THAN A GREAT POTENTIAL
Ten years ago, Gatorade: Isnt Enough would have been great, but it just doesn’t feel right now.
Yes, it somehow looks like a Nike ad, but it compensates that association with the text, since it clearly states that "Nothing you put ON" (there goes Nike and all other sport goods manufacturers) makes you win. It is "what you put IN" (like a beverage: Gatorade) what gets you there. Like it overall, but I find those two pieces of text brilliant.
Taken at on a metaphorical level, it makes perfect sense for Nike. The music and voiceover even sound like Nike. The idea makes more sense for a sports drink because it works on a literal level as well. But you're doing yourself a disservice as a brand when half the people who watch this spot will likely remember it as a Nike commercial. It would have been better if they had found a unique look that Gatorade could own.
If Gatorade decides to keep the tag line “Win from Within”, I suggest stray from relying on having its brand rely on putting down (indirectly/directly) other brands to stand out, especially when Gatorade itself is a product that works in tandem with the other brand’s products, not against them.
On a scale of 1 to 5 this deserve a 3. I love the slogan its strong. I think the execution could of been a lot stronger. Is it me or gatorade has the same persona as NIKE.
