When we developed the creative and marcom strategy for WeatherTech, as reflected in this teaser Super Bowl 2025 commercial (see Adweek article). - We focused on the key creative message: WeatherTech helps you live your life carefree, and without any worries. - Also, we made a target audience shift: moving away from a male-heavy audience, and towards being more inclusive of women. Situation - WeatherTech, although leading the market in car accessories, had: - Low awareness levels, and wasn't top of mind with consumers; - Consumers don't pay much attention to the category of floor mats and seat covers; - The category is saturated with overly rational, heavy-hitting product feature messaging; - WeatherTech was predominantly targeting men Solution - Our comprehensive research, however, indicated that WeatherTech: - - Needed to differentiate itself and evolve its brand image, by being more inclusive of women; - We built a strategy with a core messaging of urging people to live life carefree, without any worries. The result? This Super Bowl 2025 spot - Born To Be Wild. Enjoy the spot! #Superbowl 2025 #advertising #automotive https://lnkd.in/eCrz_wZ7

The law of supply and demand holds up, once again. Companies are now being forced to cut prices, responding to a slowing rate of consumer spending. What's interesting is not so much that this was inevitable, but the lesson it should hold for marketers with a genuine interest in fostering consumer loyalty. Not the loyalty-points-programs type of loyalty. But the real brand loyalties -- rooted in product, quality or service features -- that brands can foster with consumers (their tastes and preferences). Inflating prices because one can, based on expectations that consumers will eventually return when the market corrects itself, isn't prudent. Today, consumers have numerous alternative brand choices to switch-to. And, it hurts brand trust and brand equities. https://lnkd.in/esdf6SdQ #inflation #greedflation #brands #consumers #retail #brandtrust #cpg #travel #food #entertainment #economy
