A tune is playing and two men in a grocery store are quickly loading as much milk they can into a grocery cart, each trying tot get more than the other before all the milk is gone. Another man jumps onto the back of a milk truck and fills his bag, dropping a bunch of money on the seat before running away. Why are all these men so frantic to get so much milk? “A recent study has shown that calcium may reduce the symptoms of PMS” a sultry voiced narrator announces. A man arrives home with a bag full of milk cartons and a dozen red roses, walking tentatively into his house and then the commercial ends with the words “Got Milk?”

The tongue-in-cheek campaign, which plays more like a perfect-pitch comedy series than a typical B2B commercial effort, is a major departure from financial services industry norm--both in its use of humor and in its humanistic approach. Starting this week, FactSet will roll out 16 unique spotsโa combination of :30s, :15s, :06s and nine โshortsโโacross multiple channels including digital, streaming and CTV.
This :30, โDinos,โ has an office workerโs relevant reference to dinosaurs spark our boorish colleague who proceeds to utter one irrelevant fact after another about the prehistoric creatures.
The Los Angelesโbased Docter Twins (Matthew and Jason Docter) directed the original campaign and this new humorous work through their production company, Thinking Machine. The identical twin... Read More
