Here's an ad that combines good storytelling and engagement to draw you in and keep drawing you in until a twist reveals the sales pitch. But, it's done in such a funny inventive way that you don't mind the intrusion of a brand pitch. In fact, it adds to the enjoyment of the ad/video.
The spot is for Volkswagen and it's called "The Letter." It's fun, funny and engaging in a way that most spots aren't. So, rather than tell you too much and ruin it for you, I'll just let you watch it for yourself. Enjoy!
