New television ad from insurer affirms power of the Aflac Duck.
COLUMBUS, Ga., April 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Aflac announced the
launch of its latest television commercial, "There's Only One
Aflac." The spot humorously illustrates there is no substitute for
Aflac, the number one provider of guaranteed-renewable insurance in
the United States. The 30-second spot shows an employee asking his
boss if their company has Aflac while the two are standing in front
of the water cooler. His boss replies they have "something else" as
a goat who represents another insurance company chews papers,
shakes his head and responds "naaaa" to every question the employee
has about whether the insurance plan pays cash like Aflac does to
help you pay bills while you are sick or hurt. The commercial ends
as the goat flees the building chased by the Aflac Duck. "This
campaign demonstrates that there is only one Aflac and that other
insurance policies don't compare to Aflac," said Dan Amos, chairman
and CEO of Aflac. "Aflac pays cash benefits that policyholders can
use however they see fit, be it for rent, groceries, or to help
replace loss income." "There's Only One Aflac," is the 29th
installment in the popular Aflac commercial series produced by the
Kaplan Thaler Group. The ad is scheduled to debut nationwide on
April 2. The spot will run on major networks and cable channels
such as ABC, CBS, NBC, A&E, CNBC and Discovery. For more than
50 years, Aflac products have given policyholders the opportunity
to direct cash where it is needed most when a life-interrupting
medical event causes financial challenges. Aflac is the number one
provider of guaranteed-renewable insurance in the United States and
the number one insurance company in terms of individual insurance
policies in force in Japan. Our insurance products provide
