There are so many. I love the Reddit Superbowl 5 second ad - https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/... Considering how expensive SuperBowl ad time is, taking a minimum buy and making it work is brilliant. Freshworks is known for running a "Failsforce" blimp over the SalesForce Dreamforce summit -
It's what's triggered Salesforce and AWS to control ALL advertising in a 5mile radius around their major events. PayTM has a "soundbox" which loudly speaks out every successful payment - https://business.paytm.com/soundbox High-frequency merchants (think starbucks or a busy department store) love it as they don't have to check if a customer's payment has come in successfully. Customers just pay and go, without waiting to be acknowledged.

In 2012, Dollar Shave Club launched a humorous YouTube video that went viral, featuring the company's founder delivering a comedic monologue about the high cost of razors and the convenience of their subscription service. The video generated millions of views and helped the company gain a significant following, leading to its acquisition by Unilever for $1 billion in 2016.
