Could it be this easy?

In a world where discussing constipation is often met with awkwardness, and all laxative ads sound the same, it becomes difficult to stand out. The client was looking for a fresh approach. So we created 4 radio ads that “document” the effects of a laxative, in a familiar British voice.

"Otter"

“Could it be this easy?” was pitched on the second day of my internship with Rag Brahmbhatt at Serviceplan. The radio spots were instantly loved internally.

Few days later the marketing team of Sandoz Deutschland was laughing at it. Few weeks later, the people at recording studio were laughing. Few months later, it won a Cannes GOLD LION! (And another shortlist in Use of Humour!) Ask us years later, and we would still be pinching ourselves.
