McDonald’s & Coca-Cola Stair & Escalator Campaign
Ads Targeted to Activity Levels - McDonald’s & Coca-Cola Stair & Escalator Campaign (GALLERY) 2

McDonald’s has rolled out a new joint outdoors promotion with Coca-Cola to promote Coke soft drinks at McDonald’s restaurants in Sweden with a healthy lifestyle twist.

For this campaign, the always creative DDB Stockholm has come up with a witty way to promote both regular and diet Coke drinks. Regular Coke was advertised to people using stairs and Coke Light to those using the escalator.

If you wanted to go for the regular Coke, where you gain 210 to 310 calories depending if you order medium or large, you are encouraged to choose the stairs to burn those calories off. But if you wanted to take the easy route with the escalator, the promotion recommends you choose Coke Light to minimize your caloric intake.

I love the idea, it’s pretty smart and gives people a motivation to use the stairs if they prefer to drink regular Coke.

I agree B, DDB and McD have been coming up with excellent ads. Thanks for correcting the calories info, I mistook the 'kr' which is short of the Swedish currency with calories. it would have been nice if the drink had only 13 calories, lol. I guess in Sweden they have three different drink sizes at McD.

No kidding! It's scary how many calories are in pop, and people just gulp it down without realizing each drink is equivalent to an intensive workout!

LOL I don't think I have ever said 'soda'! :) I guess there are little linguistic things that do hint at where we're from! (eh?)

Yes! My Navy roommate from Arkansas used to call all pop "Coke". When we did store runs she'd say, "I'll have a Coke" and I would have to ask, "What kind? Mountain Dew, Pepsi, Faygo (what flavor)?" LOL
