2 CREATIVE BRIEF: FIAT 500 1) Character Personality: Fiat 500 is an ideal form of transportation for people who want to express their individuality and unique style. This innovative car allows the owner to explore customizable design options and find a style that represents their best self. 2) Why does the brand want to advertise? Fiat 500 wants to advertise to attract a young adult audience between the ages of years old. The purpose is to create brand awareness and inform the young audience about the driving experience the Fiat 500 offers. The brand wants to promote its unique features such as the customizable design options, eco-drive feature, and other applications that set the car apart from any other car on the road. 3) Who is the audience? The audience is young adults looking for an affordable, yet chic vehicle that expresses individuality and provides an exceptional driving experience. 4) What does the Current Audience think about the brand? The current audience (young adults 18-24) is not identifying well with the Italian brand. The current audience is showing they would rather support American manufactured automobiles instead of an import. They also feel the car is overpriced, which is why Fiat has created the Destined for Fame campaign. Driving a Fiat is a way for young individuals to define and design their generation. Young adults will not second guess buying a Fiat after experiencing the Destined for Fame campaign. 5) What do you want them to think? We want them to feel that they can customize the FIAT 500 and make it their own. We want our target audience to believe that driving a Fiat 500 will create a way for them to showcase their individuality and unique style. We also want them to feel as though they are making an environmentally conscious purchase through our Eco Drive features and applications. Through this, they can feel as though they have made the best purchase for themselves. 6) Why should they buy this product? The target audience should buy this product because it offers customizable design options to fit their specific needs and desires. The Fiat is also an environmentally friendly car, something that America as a whole is trying to improve on.

3 7) What is the big message? The big message is...that the Fiat 500 provides each driver with their own opportunity to design and create a vehicle that suits their personality and interests. Young drivers can purchase a vehicle and make it truly their own while making a smart car purchase because of the features the car provides. It is a trendy and compact car that will provide a top of the line driving experience. Therefore, this car presents an opportunity for each person to make an impression on the road and bring out the undiscovered celebrity personality in them. 8) Marketing tactics: For this project, our marketing tactics are completing a print ad, television commercial, radio commercial, billboard, social media campaign and promotional event. See promotional campaign tactics section for more details on these marketing tactics.
