How The Most Interesting Man In The World Is Advertising

Do people hang on your every word, even when you say nothing at all? At your lowest point, is your bar still higher than everyone elses? Have you ever lost a step, only to realize the step has actually been searching for you? If so, then chances are you're qualified for the newly open position of ‘Most Interesting Man in the World.'

 

After almost nine years, Dos Equis is retiring the campaign, and the man, that made the brand almost as quotable as "Anchorman." The last commercial featuring Jonathan Goldsmith, the face of your "most interesting memes in the world," over the last few years, aired this month as the brand shipped it's iconic mascot to Mars. Because when you’re the most interesting man in the world, and you need space, you go to Mars. To compliment the television commercial, Dos Equis’ parent company, Heineken, started running desktop banner ads on March 11th. Take a look at their cross-channel digital strategy surrounding the last adventure of the Most Interesting Man in the World, and the one place you can find him online.

With the exception of one video creative from 2015, which ran through March 4th, Dos Equis has been quiet on digital this entire year, until it began ramping up again on March 11th. Releasing two unique display creatives over the last 30 days, the brand targeted only Rollingstone.com using a mix of direct buys and programmatic. Both creatives link to this landing page, encouraging more views of the Most Interesting Man’s final farewell.
