SUMMARY
To generate demand and excitement for Mustang Mach-E, Ford rereleased a batch of its limited quantity First Editions against a rapidly approaching production deadline. By targeting a niche audience Ford had never spoken to before, and uncovering their shopping affinity for pop culture merchandize, we turned to sneaker sales for inspiration and ‘dropped’ the Mach-E for order unannounced across three select hype culture environments. As a result, we were able to convert 44% of our leads into orders and generate incremental revenue 200x our budget.
