- About
- In 2005, GEICO began an advertising campaign featuring Neanderthal cavemen in a modern setting. Developed by the Martin Agency, these commercials started with a GEICO spokesman explaining that using geico.com is "so easy a caveman could do it." This slogan offends present day cavemen who are, in fact, are quite urban. A follow-up commercial was aired later, in which the spokesman attempts to apologize to two displeased cavemen in a restaurant. In 2006, a new commercial featuring the cavemen premiered. With the Royksopp song "Remind Me" playing in the background, a caveman is on a moving sidewalk at an airport when he spots a billboard for Geico featuring a picture of a caveman along with the insulting phrase. One variation of the commercial shows the caveman talking to an unnamed person on a cellphone about the billboard, describing it to the person in a seemingly displeased manner. Another set of commercials features one of the cavemen seeing a therapist about the "offensive" Geico commercials.
