Assignment

In what might be the ultimate commodity category, few people think about or have much brand preference when it comes to car batteries. Exide wanted to change that, and to persuade consumers that there are clear reasons to purchase an Exide battery over a competitive one.

Approach

Armed with consumer research that defined our best audience as "Good Parents," we developed a brand positioning campaign that drew from the emotions parents feel when their battery fails, inconveniencing their family. Executed primarily in national print, the campaign was extended into the Exide website, sales materials, trade shows and products themselves.
