  • Nascar – Ogilvy &Mather
    NASCAR concluded a comprehensive agency review that spanned nearly four months, by selecting Ogilvy & Mather as Agency of Record (AOR) to service NASCAR’S  evolving advertising and marketing needs. The agency will help NASCAR and the industry to execute a five-year industry action plan to engage and excite existing fans, while creating new ones. Emphasis will be placed on expanding multicultural audiences. "Significant changes in our ecosystem impacted how we deliver our message and position our brand to existing fans while increasing the appeal of NASCAR to new audiences," said Kim Brink, NASCAR managing director of brand, consumer and series marketing. Ogilvy & Mather will complete a comprehensive on-boarding process in 2012, as the agency prepares to help NASCAR launch a new brand platform at the 55th running of the Daytona 500 in February 2013. Media spending on the brand exceeded $50 million last year—up from about $35 million in 2010, according to Nielsen. Those figures don't include online spending.

The “Connect for real” campaign, created and developed by Dieste, Inc., is running nationally on Hispanic broadcast and cable networks.  “At Southwest Airlines, we work hard to ensure that being there in person is affordable for everyone,” said Jena Atchison, Southwest Airlines’ Advertising Manager. “That’s why we don’t charge an extra fee for your first two bags or an extra fee just to change your flight. Unreasonable fees are just not in our DNA.”  The campaign shows Latinos the importance of connecting with loved ones and creating special memories.
