This vintage pie crust ad nails a classic marketing move: showing versatility. Instead of telling you how great their crust is, they show you 18 delicious ways to use it. Smart, visual, and appetite-stirring.
Marketing analysis
The ad “sandwiches” a flaky crust around drawings of fruits and fillings. In one glance, you see endless use cases. It flips a basic product (lard) into a portal for creativity—dessert, savory, seasonal, you name it.
Why it works
- Demonstrates versatility and value
- Sparks imagination (“I could make that pie!”)
