Brief: To announce the launch of CLC 1100, a color printer that produces precise color prints
Big Idea: Pantone Matching System
Result: Sales increased with an extension of ad from local to regional
Canon launched a new printer that is targeted at designers who are particular about colors, especially flesh tones which are probably the most difficult color to print. As such, the ad plays up on this message and is designed to stand out as a beauty ad in tech magazines, which are read mostly by men. The ad generated significant attention from target market.
