True Blood: Vampire Targeted advertising

The second series of HBO's True Blood starts in the US on June 14 at 9pm, and in the true nature of the TV show over the last month or so, they have got together with a handful of brands to launch a very original and cool campaign targeting the vampires living among us. Some of the brands involved are below.


MINI



Harley-Davidson



Monster.com



Gillette



Other brands involved include Ecko Fragrance, Anubis Air, Hotel Carmilla, and Geico in a campaign which was implemented across Outdoor, Press, and Online.

According to the True Blood Bloodcopy Blog advertisers would be silly not to target Vampires in these difficult times... "With a global recession in full swing, tapping the growth segment of vampire consumers has become all the rage in corporate America. Leading the competition, these companies have all launched marketing efforts aimed at turning undead desires into dollars".

Fantastic!
