Pilot Pen tries out a campaign that doesn't star its president
Article Abstract:
Pilot Pens, the No. 3 pen company in the U.S,. has started two new television ads in time for the back-to-school market, a time when pen companies sell about 35% of the year's total. Kaplan Thaler Group, Pilot's new agency in New York, created the ads called, 'Pen Envy' and 'Baby.' The ads feature two popular gel pens by Pilot, the G-2 and Dr. Grip. The idea for 'Pen Envy' came from the offices of the agency where those who had the Pilot pens on their desks were envied by those who didn't.
