HOW TO MAKE
A MILK SHAKE

Challenge

Grown adults were secretly necking Yazoo.

While Yazoo already had almost 90% market penetration with kids aged 4–10, research revealed that it was secretly loved by young adults, especially men, who drank it instead of meals or as a hangover cure. So, we had to give this hidden fanbase permission to love Yazoo loudly, without alienating its core, kiddy audience.

Yazoo Yazoo

Solution

So Betty the cow was launched (literally) onto an unsuspecting public.

Add her to a circus cannon, chuck in some fruit and hey presto, the correct way to make milk...shake.
The print OOH showed the ever-versatile Betty riding a bike, having fun on a swing and testing out a diving board. All tried and trusted ways to shake milk up. The endline “Milk, shaken up” underlined the messaging. No cows were harmed during the making of this campaign.
