Someone at A-B should have regnized right om the start that this Dylan Mulvaney fluencer effort uld be a disaster. I image that at least 40% of Bud Light re ctomers nsir Mulvaney a d. Clearly, not enough people at HQ eher NYC or Belgium knows the ctomer.<br /> 2. The vio of the Marketg Director set this on fire. She had no nsiratn for current re ctomers her ments. In fact, the ments dited that she looked down on re ctomers, llg the history of the brand “atty, wh out of touch humor”. She also me across that she was smarter than everyone else.<br /> 3. The Brazilian born CEO’s dismissive ments has add even more fuel to the fire. He characterized this entire episo as “one n, and not a mpaign”, and statg that there is a lot of “misrmatn”. This too n be terpreted as an sult to vote ctomers. In sence, current ctomers are “too stupid to regnize that this is not a mpaign” and “we’ll fix this by creasg our ad spendg by 3x.”<br /> We will see where this go by Memorial Day. But if Bud Light ntu to be down by -25% and A-B sal ntue down by -12%, the entire executive team may need to be replaced by people who know and unrstand the current re ctomer. By the way, movg HQ back to St. Louis would be a smart move as well.</p></div><div class="wp-block-ment-reply-lk has-small-font-size"><a rel="nofollow" class="ment-reply-log" href=">Log to Reply</a></div></div></div></li><li id="ment-204304" class="ment byer ment-thor-richkizerandbenr- odd alt thread-even pth-1"><div class="wp-block-lumns has-theme-palette-7-background-lor has-background is-layout-flex wp-ntaer-76 wp-block-lumns-is-layout-flex" style="paddg-top:var(--wp--pret--spacg--30);paddg-right:var(--wp--pret--spacg--30);paddg-bottom:var(--wp--pret--spacg--30);paddg-left:var(--wp--pret--spacg--30)"><div class="wp-block-lumn is-layout-flow wp-block-lumn-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:40px"><div class="wp-block-avatar"><img data-l="avatar" alt="Rich Kizer Avatar" src='' class='avatar pp-er-avatar avatar-40 photo wp-block-avatar__image' height='40' width='40'/></div></div><div class="wp-block-lumn is-layout-flow wp-block-lumn-is-layout-flow" style="paddg-top:0;paddg-right:0;paddg-bottom:0;paddg-left:0"><div style="font-size:15px;font-style:normal;font-weight:700;" class="has-text-lor has-theme-palette-5-lor wp-block-ment-thor-name">Rich Kizer</div><div class="wp-block-group is-layout-flex wp-block-group-is-layout-flex" style="marg-top:0px;marg-bottom:0px"><div class="wp-block-ment-date has-small-font-size"><time datetime="2023-05-15T09:41:10-05:00">5/15/2023 9:41 AM</time></div></div><div style="font-size:17px;le-height:1.7;" class="wp-block-ment-ntent"><p>I have never seen advantage ponrg mpaigns that separate people.
