Currently, the most “interesting” advertising campaign in the beer industry is the
Dos Equis commercial based on the “most interesting man in the world.” The product behind the brand did not change its packaging, its taste signature, or its price point. But in 2010, sales of Dos Equis increased 22 percent, buoyed by the creativity, more than the media dollars, of Heineken/FEMSA Cerveza (the owner of the brand). Since the campaign began, Dos Equis sales have been on a roll.
