Perhaps inspired by The Best Job in the World campaign, we now have ‘The Coolest Job‘ campaign.

There’s a print ad. in Bangalore Times too.

Going by the clues (limited!) in the text, I could find only 2 things worth using to start a guess – ‘beverage company’ and ‘more than 75 countries’. Did a Google, of course and landed on 2 possible brands - Cadbury Schweppes and SABMiller. And, given the focus on partying and clubs, I’m inclined on a brand from the SABMiller stable.

A note on the Facebook page, however. The Facebook page seems to have been created around July 15th â?? they have 25,000+ likes todayâ?¦the power of targeted Facebook advertising! But, targeted or not is a question worth asking aloud – even with 25,000+, the page seems to have comparatively limited number of â??likesâ?? per post â?? 51, 29, 73, 67, 34â?¦! I’d assume starting the campaign a but earlier may have helped, or at least looking at spreading the word through other media early on may also have helped. For focused campaigns like this, I do wonder how the brand can increase both – page likes and engagement (likes per update and comments) when the time is relatively short. Most campaigns have nailed the former – Facebook ads work quite well in ensuring massive page like numbers, but the engagement remains a moot point.

As for the brand guessing game, since it comes with a unique URL – thecoolestjob.com – one could whois it and see who is behind the effort. I did that too and landed only on this – very clever work by the agency/brand, I’d say.

But then, I tried connecting the dots based on the 2 guesses I already have and guess what! SABMiller’s corporate office is in Bangalore. The address happens to be,

SKOL Breweries Limited
Jalahalli Camp Road, Yeshwantpur
Bangalore – 560022, Karnataka
India. Tel: +91 (80) 3949 9999

There’s something interesting between the phone number in the whois result and the one in this address, no?
