Delhi, 10 November, 2017: To celebrate the launch of India’s most loved compact SUV – The
All-New Ford EcoSport, in the most fun and engaging way, Ford India teamed up
with Google to launch a first-of-its-kind digital campaign in the automobile
space in India.
Titled “Fun on Your Side”, the unique digital campaign aims to bring
different aspects of ‘fun’ to lie that customer can experience with the All-New
EcoSport even when they search for it online.
Starting 9th November
till November 15th, people searching for ‘Fun with EcoSport’ on
Google Search will be asked to choose their favourite fun activity such as
movie mania, make a trip, grab a meal and fun hangout. After voting, consumers will need to click on
a ‘Thank You’ link to get a chance to win vouchers related to the voted option,
from Coupon Dunia.
“The car that started the compact
SUV phenomenon in India is back to win many more hearts and minds,” said
Rahul Gautam, Vice President - Marketing, Ford India. “With the Fun
with EcoSport campaign, we have worked with Google to ensure that the spirit of
fun spreads beyond our dealership floors to everyone searching for it. With the
New Ford EcoSport, our engineers have combined style, fun, and technology – all
in one package – that we want our consumers to search and experience.”
Commenting on
the unique campaign, Vikas Agnihotri,
Director Sales, Google India said, “Research shows 89% of car buyer’s
decision making is influenced through digital and majority of their journey
starts from Google Search. The digital campaign for the launch of the new
Ecosport combines strong intent cues from consumers with the innovative search
voting feature to provide a fun-filled and memorable experience.”
Ford is one of India’s leading
users of programmatic advertising in India, and the campaign for the all-new
EcoSport further builds on this and will enable the teams to engage audiences
across all offline and online touch points in an integrated manner.
Part of the
360 Degree campaign conceptualised by GTB, part of WPP Group, the campaign
promotes the new Ford EcoSport and its core features of Fun, Style and
Technology across online, print and TV.
