Case Studies

Nissan Military Promotion
Nissan’s initiative to produce a program to promote their special programs was geared to the significant Military population in San Diego. Together, we generated a partnership with the San Diego International Auto Show. By heavily featuring these promotions in dedicated TV and radio spots, Military specific publications, targeted digital media and a special exhibit on the show floor, all Military personnel were encouraged to visit their local Nissan Dealership to receive free tickets to the Auto Show.  With over 5,000 tickets distributed from the dealerships, our marketing plan drove the significant traffic we had hoped for.  Upon arriving at the Auto Show, Military personnel were greeted by signage expressing Nissan’s appreciation to those protecting our Country and the special offers on Nissan vehicles. With the program’s incredible success, it has been repeated for the past 5 years.
Sempra LNG
Sempra’s initiative to advocate the use of natural gas was under attack by the California State Legislature.  We created a partnership with the San Diego Bay Food and Wine Festival, which has an attendance of over 5,000 cooking aficionados and over 70 well-known top chef’s residing in San Diego. The partnership entailed gifting a nylon bag promoting the use of natural gas to every attendee, along with literature extolling the virtues of that specific energy source. A staffed booth and signage were also on-site to educate patrons. The program continues on to this day, all due to its success in reaching those most likely to be advocates for Sempra’s cause.
SDG&E Electric Vehicle Initiative
To experience the comfort and ease of driving electric, San Diego Gas and Electric’s initiative to promote the purchase of Electric Vehicles involved having potential car buyers behind the wheel of these vehicles.  We partnered with the San Diego County Fair, the La Jolla Concours D’Elegance and the San Diego International Auto Show to create an all-electric test drive experience. Thousands of people were exposed to the joy of driving an electric vehicle. In addition to considerable on-site branding, spaces were established to educate consumers on rebates, when it is best to charge, savings on fuel, as well as environmental impact. The program continues and is expected to add multiple other events as soon as live events re-open in the United States.
