Why Nerds is Betting Big on the Super Bowl


Listen Later

Nerds' first Super Bowl ad will be a "multisensory" experience according to the brand's marketing director, Joey Rath.


Joining Adweek's Europe brand editor, Rebecca Stewart and senior producer, Al Mannarino on this week's episode of the podcast, Rath discussed how Nerds' decision to enter the Super Bowl advertising arena was aligned with a recent surge in growth.


To keep the momentum going, the candy brand has tripled its marketing spend recently; and what better way to appeal to young audiences and further its presence than with a spot in the Big Game?


Rath also discussed how collaboration has been key in delivering the creative, and talked us through the brand's teaser, which features influencer Addison Rae teaching a mystery student how to dance.
