(PRWEB) May 27 2004--Jaguar North America, through LA-based creative consultancy, exposure usa, is currently implementing a strategic, music-based trend influencer outreach campaign to raise awareness and drive sampling of the X-TYPE premium compact sports sedan among target tastemaker prospects.
The campaign started in January 2004 with a general awareness raising promotion to win an X-TYPE on the target audiences preferred radio station, NPRs KCRW.
This highly successful promotion has been followed by a series of 'X-TYPE City Session' events in the brands key US metropolitan markets – LA, New York & Miami.
Mixing Latin house, ambient drum and bass, electronica and dub, the City Sessions series also includes live DJ-led events by high profile DJs including Miguel Migs, Vikter Duplaix, Shaun Escoffrey and many more.
At the same time, high-indexing opinion formers in the key cities are being placed in X-TYPES to raise awareness and promote brand advocacy in core Jaguar prospect communities.
Both the City Sessions and VVIP outreach have been designed to drive target tastemakers to a dedicated X-TYPE website, thextype.com.
On this site users can listen to exclusive downtempo music by some of their favorite artists, view pictures from the City Sessions and sign up for a test drive of an X-TYPE.
People signing up online for an test drive are sent a four-CD box set of downtempo music mixed by masters of the genre: Thievery Corporation, Martin East, DB and Rob da Bank.
People signing up for a drive or to receive X-News, the newsletter of the program, have their names entered into a draw to win a specially commissioned limited-edition black xtype iPod.
X-TYPE is also supporting the current US tour of Zero 7, a key musical act in the target audience profile, and will release an exclusive CD featuring previously unreleased mixes and b-sides from Zero 7s first and most recent albums.
