tide white christmas ad

The Tide Christmas print advertisement from around 2009, known for its minimalist and clever design featuring a small, blue, Christmas tree-shaped ink stain on the pocket of a white shirt. It focuses on the product’s primary message: ensuring white clothes remain perfectly white, even during the stain-prone holiday season.  

The core message of the ad is that while many Christmas ads use the overused Christmas tree visual, Tide ensures that real-life stains, even those that might occur during the holidays, are completely removable, thus keeping your whites bright.

This ad is a good example of how Tide often uses creative and eye-catching creatives to highlight its powerful stain-removal capabilities

Hi, I'm Hridja, a marketing consultant focusing on digital strategies. I wrestle with marketing jargon by day and dream of the perfect subject line by night.

When I'm not writing, I'm obsessively collecting ads and email campaigns – basically building a massive digital library that I hope will be a treasure trove of inspiration.

Consider me your friendly neighbourhood marketing nerd, just trying to make sense of the ever-changing digital landscape and maybe, just maybe, build the world's most epic library of ads and emails.

You'll find my work here on Digital Tripathi.
