This “For All It’s Worth” :90 created by TBWAChiatDay LA for Principal Financial bucks the ad norm in the financial services category which typically focuses on achievement/numbers and the end goal. Instead this campaign differentiates wealth from worth–the worth of family, the emotional benefit that financial savvy can bring whether you already have wealth or are just starting out.
Directed by Diego Contreras of RESET Content, the spot also brings a much needed shot of optimism to the marketplace, underscoring a brand promise to help people/businesses feel and become more financially confident.

Johnnie Walker wraps up the year with an inspiring campaign that is a direct and bold response to those who would question the strength of women. Created by AlmapBBDO in São Paulo, Brazil, this anthem film--“Forte São Elas” (“Strong are the Women”) starring actress Alice Braga--references one of the most iconic productions in the brand’s history worldwide:”The Man Who Walked Around The World.”
Produced by Surreal Hotel Arts, directed by Lu Villaça, and featuring an original soundtrack by Cabaret Studio, “Forte São Elas” shows Braga walking as she describes how strength plays an essential role in the daily life of every woman. Whether facing stereotypes or countless other barriers, women are the masters of their own choices and stay true to their journeys.
“The campaign recognizes the emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes. And when they say that whisky is too strong for women, we will tell them: it’s the women who are strong,” said Andrea Rubim, head of marketing for Johnnie Walker.
