SUMMARY
Snickers has been iconic in the US for decades; but even iconic chocolate brands arent immune to the fickle consumer, whose impulsive purchases leave little room for long-term loyalty. By tapping into a human truth that we act out-of-sorts when hungry and creating an engaging construct to bring that truth to life, Youre Not You When Youre Hungry created an emotional connection with consumers; five years in, the campaign has inspired global adoption, integrated seamlessly into new platforms, and become a satisfying part of culture, with no sign of stopping.
