DoorDash: For Every Reason To Stay

DoorDash this week launched its newest campaign, “For Every Reason To Stay”, created in collaboration with GUT Los Angeles, capturing one of the most recognizable social moments of the Hispanic community: when someone tries to leave a gathering… and somehow never makes it out the door. December brings peak at-home dinners, end-of-year get-togethers, and endless sobremesas, which also means endless attempts to say goodbye. Instead of treating convenience as a way to escape, this campaign flips the script: DoorDash becomes the reason people stay a little longer, delivering whatever could have been used as an excuse to leave. In the film, a dinner guest quietly attempts his exit with classic lines: “I’m tired,” “I have to wake up early,” “I should go watch the game.” Each time, friends counter the excuse with a perfectly timed DoorDash order: cafecito arrives, beers appear, snacks drop, even a TV shows up for an on-the-spot watch party.
