Wondering what this is all about?

This was a tourism campaign in Australia (where I live) promoting travel to the Northern Territory.

"CU in the NT" (short for "See You in the Northern Territory")

As you can imagine, it caught the attention of a few people.

I see blokes driving around in their cars with wheel covers like this one...

And people even have the slogan on their coffee cups.

It's wild!

But do you know what it proves?

How a simple, authentic, and visually striking ad campaign can be highly effective in promoting something and catching people's attention.

Think about this ad campaign the next time you run ads or market something.
