Cats with Hats commercial helps launch marketing campaign and brand refresh.
GoDaddy launched a new branding and marketing campaign in North America today, using the slogan “Go You. GoDaddy”.
The campaign is marketed squarely at entrepreneurs (often times solepreneurs) and very small businesses of five or fewer employees.
GoDaddy is running a new TV ad that retains the company’s comedic approach to marketing:
You’ll notice some other slight changes to GoDaddy’s site, including new fonts and colors. The GoDaddy logo is losing is “squiggly” font (good riddance):
The company is dropping its “It’s Go Time” slogan that was introduced in 2013. I think the tagline came across as somewhat cliched. (In fact, another company claimed it was using the slogan for hosting services before GoDaddy did.)
The “Go You. GoDaddy” motto does a good job of incorporating the company’s message and its brand, unlike “It’s Go Time”.
Aaron Strong says
I have seen the company referenced as Go Daddy and GoDaddy, both in logo and in print…I am assuming the changes are an official end to Go Daddy….(similar issue with the word “website”)
Andrew Allemann says
They changed it to GoDaddy (one word) a couple years ago, I think when Blake came in.
Joseph Peterson says
Where’s that “Like” button?

This is the biggest reason why “GoDaddy” remains on top in branding race, I find this ad a bit refreshing and soothing and hopefully it will paint a soft joyful image of GoDaddy and will further add to the brand equation of it.
