1. Client: Progressive Insurance Date: August 9, 2010 Team: 4 - Nash Healey Product: Pay as you Drive Insurance Plan What do we stand for? The revolution of car insurance. (You) take the keys. Problem/Challenge : Rise above the industry’s recycled strategy to reach Millennials; offering a plan that rejects one-size-fits-all coverage and jumpstarts a new age of auto insurance. Target Audience: 18-25 year old (student) drivers, including incoming college students, current students, and early post-graduates. Focus on those still covered by relatives as well as those actively seeking an independent plan. Accepted Common Belief: Auto insurance is seen as a costly, irritating necessity, and therefore is not considered until absolutely necessary. The “one size fits all” approach misses the mark with Millennials, who are extremely diverse and seek personalization. Why do we matter? Our product fits the Millennial lifestyle like nothing has before. Now the relationship between your car, your driving habits, and your coverage is measurable, tangible and transparent. Accountability has never been more clear both for the consumer and for Progressive. Who is the enemy? One-size-fits-all insurance; preconceived notions of auto insurance Brand Tone: Spontaneous, forward-thinking, open-minded, personal, intelligent, direct, simple.
