NEW YORK — If you watch the Super Bowl for the commercials, you no longer have to wait till the huge videogame to see what marketers have in shop for audiences.
Many business now release advertisements ahead of the videogame in the hope of capitalizing on the buzz that constructs as the videogame techniques. They hope to recover some of the reported $7 million that’s the going rate for a 30-second area by recording pre-game attention.
It’s a huge difficulty to stand out amongst the 50-plus marketers that will be contending for the eyes of the more than 100 million individuals anticipated to tune in this year to CBS (and Paramount+ and Nickelodeon) on Super Bowl Sunday (Feb. 11). Last year’s broadcast on Fox was saw by a record 115.1 million audiences, according to Nielsen.
So marketers pull out all the stops. In the advertisements launched ahead of the videogame so far, Budweiser focuses on its renowned Clydesdales, Michelob Ultra capitalizes on the renowned star power of soccer legend Lionel Messi, and Uber Eats goes for chuckles with an advertisement where Jennifer Aniston forgets she starred in “Friends” with David Schwimmer. Many more commercials are anticipated to be launched ahead of the videogame.
Of course, not all marketers release their advertisements ahead of the videogame, so there will be surprises. Big marketers like Amazon have remained mum on advertisement strategies so far. And while there haveactually been no signs of such, it stays to be seen whether marketers will capitalize on this year’s Taylor Swift buzz in some method.
Here are some of the buzziest advertisements that haveactually been launched so far:
