The commercials are designed to reflect a more “grown-up” approach, with the young boy that appeared in the Protégé ads removed but still delivering the “Zoom-Zoom” phrase in the voiceover. The ads also use more action shots of the car and its workings. Promotions were done in magazines, newspapers; they also had a deal with ESPN, which includes advertising company's new Stylish, Insightful, and Spirited design. The Mazda6 is the successor of the Mazda 626. The advertising strategy is no more similar with the protégé; it has pictures as the more matured version or model, so continuing with the Zoom Zoom theme, made was the first example of a less playful than the protégé, as it is mainly targeted to the Mazda ESPN’s various media such as, print (ESPN Magazine), TV, radio and the Internet as well as in ESPN Zone restaurants.

Progressive is perhaps the most visible company and it stands out in the competitive auto insurance industry.

However, Progressive’s advertising campaign makes it look simple and easy by presenting it like retail shopping that people would feel comfortable with. Progressive provides quotes of its own insurance policy as well as those of its competitors in its advertising campaign.
Buyers of the Porsche 911 car series are known to be wealthy and are serious car enthusiasts who possess an in-depth knowledge and passion about sports cars. For the success of the 911 series, Porsche used a focused differentiated business strategy by targeting a niche market (as mentioned in the case), emphasizing on design, and consistently developing class-leading technologies.However, with the introduction of Cayenne and Panamera, Porsche has repositioned itself from focused differentiation to broad differentiation. This repositioning weakened its brand in the eyes of consumers, eroding the points of differentiation created by their brand and taking the customer’s attention away from the famous 911. Large companies usually shift to broad differentiation strategy when the competition gets tough. This strategic shift has the following risks and benefits.
“What up dog?” We both responded at the same time. He walked up to us chanting a song that got jammed into his head earlier; “I love pickles.” He sang loudly.

When he was younger he planned on creating something for the rich as well for common man that would involve engines. He created the Ford Model T, which was affordable for the poor, and continued to create Model A and other modeled cars (Joans 2010). By the end of World War I half of Americans owned the model T car. The affordable cars like those Ford produced transformed America (Roak et al., 2011). Ford created the automobile industry, which employed thousands of workers and inspired new industries as well (Heritage, 2010).The new industries included but were not limited to: gas stations, mechanics, fast food restaurants drive-ins (pig stands) and motels (A&E, 2006).
When one talks about having a sense of self-esteem, what are we really referring to? According to psychology expert, Kendra Cherry, the term self-esteem is used to describe a person’s overall sense of self-worth and personal value. In Rick Bragg’s excerpt, “100 Miles per Hour, Upside Down and Sideways,” Bragg conveys images of the vehicles that he drove and what it was like to drive them, but he also announces how the performance of driving a fast car changed the way that he saw both himself and his place in the community (37). Although Rick Bragg’s high elevated sense of self-esteem had a positive outcome in enabling him to gain self-confidence, dominance, and a sense of self-worth, periodically, it also inserted him into impending situations. Self-esteem primarily indicates having confidence and satisfaction in oneself (“Self-esteem”).
Name recognition is very important as well. This is a reflection of American culture. People are judged on the exterior. People associate someone to be rich if they drive a new model of a Lexus, or judge someone to be poor if they are driving a Volkswagen Bus from the ‘60s. Image is beyond brand because of the first impression one makes for themselves with the brand or style they wear.
Cars vs. Trucks/SUV’s What type of automobile do you like to drive? In this paper I will be discussing the pro’s and con’s of either driving a truck/SUV or driving a car. Most people have a certain one that they like to drive. Some guys would rather drive a truck because it makes them look like more of a man. Or some think that the bigger and stronger their truck is the bigger and stronger that they are.
