Dare extends latest campaign with launch of new limited edition packaging via AJF Partnership
Following on from Dare’s latest campaign launch last week, the iced coffee brand has this week launched new limited edition packaging to further enhance the brand’s positioning via AJF Partnership.
Says Mary Stafford, brand manager: “We are looking to take the brand positioning right through to the point of purchase and beyond to reinforce the product’s credentials as the solution for whenever people are not thinking straight.”
The idea reinforces the current campaign featuring jumbled headlines under the campaign of ‘When your place is all over the head, a Dare Fix’ll Fix it’ and aims to disrupt the shopper’s usual in-store behaviour. There are five versions of the Dare pack that feature the jumbled Dare logo.
As distribution of the labels has increased, so too has consumer engagement. The activity so far has started a lively debate on the brand’s Facebook page, Reddit and Instragram with fans self-moderating discussions as to whether the labels were a misprint or a deliberate part of the brand’s strategy.

So even the drink itself is tired?
I had one. I chuckled. Tick!
If Dare is the antidote to being confused, why is the product all over the place?
The creative strategy is flawed, but consumers won’t spend more than a few seconds thinking about it. It’s just matching luggage.
This doesn’t make any sense.
The product shouldn’t be tired and confused.
I like that their being playful with their packaging. Just a pity the letters dont unjumble once the container is drained.
What’s not to get? Jumbled packs confuse people in store, hence ‘place all over the head’. Great work.
I tasted all of them. Ader is my favourite.
I don’t get how anyone can have problems with this, it’s a nice campaign extension. nice one chaps
Refreshing to see a campaign that is more than just a few TVCs. Any time we can engage with our market instead of just barking our messages at them, the better.
This is good. Nice work getting the client to mess with their logo as well. Not sure why people are confused, if you feel a bit off (like the label) then drink this.
Great stuff. Amongst the 10,000,000 SKUs in the fridge at least it will stand out/disrupt.
So many comments from those involved in this ad…
It clearly doesn’t make any sense. Poor thinking.
Makes total sense.
Gave me a chuckle and I even bought one. So there.
Hehehehe!
Has anyone seen the Sinckers ads & google ad word campaign that ran to reinforce their ‘you’re not you when you’re hungry’ messaging – I immediately thought of that when I saw this…
