Purple's Ad Conveys the Experience of Feeling Its Supportive Mattress
Laura McQuarrie — June 9, 2020 — Marketing
DTC mattress brand rely mostly on marketing to convey why people should invest in one of their mattresses and Purple's newest ad helps to convey the experience of what it would be like to feel the soft and supportive mattress. The abstract ad wordlessly conveys the qualities of the Purple Grid, which adapts to the body and keeps it cool with over 1,000 air channels and temperature-neutral gel. An essential part of visiting a mattress store is being able to lie down on the floor models to get a sense of how they feel, and this ad functions in a similar way with only dynamic visuals.
Even during an uncertain time when some businesses are struggling, Purple's mattress sales are said to be as strong as ever.
