]]> Old Spice have produced some ingenious adverts recently that have truly gone viral. At the time of writing each of these videos is well beyond 15 million views! So what is it that these adverts do so well that makes them so popular? What NLP elements do you suppose they’ve used in making these commercials so likable? Or, probably more accurately, what elements have they used in these adverts that could be explained by Neuro-Linguistic Programming theories?

Before we go any further here are two example Old Spice Adverts for those of you that are yet to enjoy them:

There is so much going on in these videos though the main things that jump out at me are:

  • State Elicitation: In my opinion this is where the video truly excels. Watching the videos elicits state after state after state. The target audience is obviously women with a male partner. To start with there are the states that a shirtless man in a bathroom elicits. Followed by the state of being on a boat with the man your man could smell like, oysters, tickets, diamonds and finally the horse. Slotted into the mix is, of course, their Old Spice product too.
  • Involving All the Senses: The video makes great use of each of several of the modalities to really bring the experience to life. It starts with Visual (“Look at your man, now back to me”), Olfactory (‘He could smell like he is me’) and of course Auditory (His voice and the sound effects such as the noise of diamonds running off his hand).
  • Ambiguous Language: The language used is very ambiguous. The language is a great example of the Milton Model. For example, “It’s an oyster with two tickets to that thing you love” – what thing that you love? It doesn’t specify – the viewer creates their own meaning! Another good example is the presenting of states (shirtless man in bathroom -> being on a boat -> oyster -> tickets -> diamonds) that are all pacing things that many women would feel positively about and then they slot in Old Spice – this is a great example of the Pacing and Leading language pattern.
  • Anchoring: The video elicits a really nice, positive state. And right at the end of the video, when that state is peaking, they supply the little Old Spice whistle jingle perfectly anchoring us. To test it just try listening to the first video from 0:28 – do the good feelings come rushing back for you like they do for me?

These are just four components of this amazing video that NLP can shed some light on. Can you spot some more? Love to hear your thoughts in the comments!

And in conclusion, I’m on a horse!
