 百事可乐广告中的一个笑话引发了一场诉讼;了解

由于百事可乐电视广告中的一个笑话,一位消费者起诉该公司以赢得一架飞机。

这种情况发生在1990年,当时该品牌为了吸引新的消费者,推出了以购买产品的积分换取奖品的促销活动。

这一营销活动旨在吸引新消费者的注意,因为当时的软饮料市场被可口可乐所垄断。

然而,这给百事可乐带来了一些问题,因为他们的一个广告中出现了一个笑话。 这是因为一位顾客把这个笑话太当真了。

点击此处可观看该广告。 广告中展示了累积一定分数后可能获得的奖品。 要获得百事可乐T恤,需要75个 "百事可乐分数"。 要获得夹克,需要1450个分数。

然而,百事可乐并没有想到,它的一位消费者会认真对待积满7,000,000分后,公司将赠送给他一架飞机,更确切地说,是一架鹞式战斗机。

广告宣传的目的是鼓励消费者购买该饮料以获得积分,积分可兑换T恤衫、酒杯和夹克等礼品。

为了积累这些积分,每种产品都有特定的价值,一个罐头价值1分,一个两升的瓶子价值2分,而一捆12个罐头价值5分。 积分也可以购买,每个10美分。

约翰-伦纳德(John Leonard)正是看中了这最后一种累积点数的可能性,这位年轻的商科学生想出了一个办法,即以近1/5的价格 "购买 "鹞式战斗机。

通过这种方式,这位年轻人制定了一项计划,以便以更低的价格购买当时售价约为3300万美元的飞机。

为了赢得飞机,约翰开始准备他的计划。 他已经是该品牌软饮料的消费者,但是为了赢得积分,他必须喝更多的饮料。

为了获得积分,您需要在一年内每天消费约46,000罐,这样就需要花费400万美元。

然而,有一种更简单的方法可以获得飞机,那就是购买点数,每个点数可以买一毛钱,所花费的钱不少于70万美元。

为了实现这一壮举,约翰-伦纳德需要投资人,而投资人并不难找,于是1996年3月28日,这位年轻人将一封包含15个要点和70多万美元的信件寄到了促销活动的地址。

他在信中要求将有关喷气机送到他的地址。

当然,该品牌退还了这位年轻人的钱和积分,声称该广告只是一个玩笑。 然而,Leonard并没有就此罢休。 由于回应并不尽如人意,他决定采取法律行动。

案件很快被驳回,但公司要求Leonard承担诉讼费用。

最终,这位年轻人败诉,而公司的宣传活动却非常成功,这主要归功于案件所占的比例。
