Solo, the lemon flavoured pub squash drink launched by Cadbury Schweppes for the Australian market, had its stereotpyical assocation with masculinity in the Man Cans campaign.
Viewers were introduced to the Man Cans concept in a range of 15 second teasers. It wasn’t until the introduction of a longer TV ad that consumers were put in the picture. The way to deal with feminization is to get involved in masculine activity and drink Solo, the drink for man kind. The campaign is online at www.mancans.com.au.
