56 Minimalist Print Advertisements that’ll Make You Think

In today’s world, advertisements play a very important role for the success of a product or company. They must deliver powerful messages which attract people’s attention. For print, designers have to be very creative and imaginative, be able to write a powerful copy, and be mindful of the target audience. Minimal ads are always popular for their simplicity, single image, one- or two-word catchy slogan, strong message, and few colors. In this showcase we have presented 56 amazing minimalist print advertisements for inspiration.

Stride Gum's Recordbreaking Challenge

To emphasise the long-lasting flavour of Stride gum, JWT New York has launched a campaign in which Stride 'marketers' set a series of ludicrous records and then challenge Facebook users to break them...

Stride is posting a new film online everyday for the next 100 days, each showing a record being broken. So far, these include the longest balloon volley using heads, the longest time kicking one's own butt, and the longest 'arghhh!' while wearing an eyepatch.

<object width="560" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VXfcs496EmQ?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VXfcs496EmQ?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="349" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

<object width="560" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/D-vWLEtRglg?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/D-vWLEtRglg?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="349" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

Viewers are then invited to break the records to be in with a chance of winning top cash prizes. All they have to do is film themselves breaking the record and then post the film online. At the end of the 100 days, the final 100 record holders will win $500 for their long-lasting achievement.

They're only on day 8 so there's still plenty of time to join in the fun. To view the films and get more info on the challenge, visit facebook.com/stride-gum.
