Execution

Prosumers engagement: Releasing press news to bloggers and establishing a relation with them for later on communication.We created a bloggers event to present to them the new car before any other media.

We got 30 important bloggers, 10 Opel Insignias to drive them along the city making some trials and a final party to chat with them about the car.Notorious launch: Using actions never done before during several days. We made a partnership with the main newspaper of the market. The new car Opel Insignia presented the new look and feel of the website. ALL ad formats of the website during that day were Insignia's.We personalized ALL Yahoo channels with takeovers during one day. First time Yahoo makes this action in all Europe.

We used 4 different newspapers using the brand day formats, to communicate the 4 special characteristics of the car.
