THE SPOT
"Jogger" (:30) promotes ING Direct as an alternative banking choice where people can earn more by doing less. The ad features a spokesman in a black-and-white environment, who tosses an orange ball (which represents the company’s various services) to people who suddenly become full of color.
Spot broke in October.
