By the time the next Your Take rolls around, Super Bowl ads will be a distant memory (I know it’ll only have been five days but we have short memories these days!), so we’re going to do something different. A lot of companies are now releasing their Super Bowl ads, or sneak peeks, early in an attempt to drum up buzz and anticipation. When you’re paying $4 million for a thirty second spot, you might as well maximize the bang for your buck. For example, Mercedes-Benz hired Kate Upton to up the sex appeal in promoting the Mercedes-Benz CLA and it resulted in a lot of press coverage because they released a teaser (and because it’s Mercedes-Benz).
The easiest way to find these sneak peaks is searching Youtube.
I watched a few and my personal favorites are always the ones that go the funny route but I think this “nerd triumph” video might be my favorite so far:
On a semi-unrelated note, talk about advertising working… during this entire Volkswagen Super Bowl commercial I really just expected someone to pull out a Red Stripe.
Which one do you think will be your favorite?

Of course Jim likes the “nerd” ad.
VW was pretty good — at first I got the Red Stripe vibe but it kept me guessing ’til the end.
Kinda wish it *wasn’t* VW, though, ha.
Ha don’t be mean
There were complaints of racism with that VW ad…
It would be great if the two coach brothers could be in an ad. Love the commercials. But this year I am rooting for the Ravens so I may actually watch the game. LOL
I want to be surprised
