I love commercials that don’t obviously push the product they are hoping to sell, when they seem to take the higher road and encourage thought and discussion, when they focus on creativity and aim to inspire.

This is exactly what the Alberta Milk advertising campaign has done since 2003, when the campaign began. I found the original commercial online (after a LOT of searching) and I wanted to share it with anyone who has never seen it, or who forgot all about it.

They wanted to push milk consumption in tweens/teens and knew that saying “drink milk, it helps you grow” wasn’t really going to get results. Instead they focused on growth in the broader sense: personal, physical, emotional. And with excellent results.
