  • Kickstart Catalog Ideas
    Kickstart Catalog Ideas Brand: Nike 1: What symbols and signs can be combined to generate a new meaning, representing the product or serviceʼs advantage? The Nike swoosh can be used as a checkmark on a checklist to convey the idea of accomplishment (like accomplishing tasks on a list), and communicate the “Just Do It” concept. 2: What opportunities for ambiguity, double meanings or wordplay are there in the words you use to describe the benefit? The Nike Shox line of shoes could be used to replace the shock paddles used during defibrillation, using the double meaning/wordplay to associate the shoes with reviving life. 3: Can you construct rhymes, puns or other kinds of wordplay from the product or brand, which will underline the subject? For the NIKEiD line of customizable shoes, a list of “Iʼd (or iʼD) like to _______” statements could be depicted, followed by “What is your iʼD? Customize your footwear to fit your fitness goals with NIKEiD.” 4: How can the benefit be depicted by inverting something familiar into its opposite? Using pictures of either acts of laziness, competing brands, or just general bad ideas, invert the tagline to “Just donʼt do it” to contrast it with the positive outcomes of using the brand. 5: How will the product change the userʼs future? Using a split-screen execution, a commercial could show how an internʼs future is different with and without a pair of Nike shoes that he keeps handy to run a crucial errand. (The future with the Nike shoes shows the intern getting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, while in the other future he is fired.) The tagline might say “Just in the Nike of time” for an extra wordplay effect.

The aim of this study is to demonstrate how Generation Y influences, through their behavior and customs, the decisions to be made by the marketing area of companies. In this sense, the study seeks to demonstrate this situation by addressing the running market, which is consistently growing in Brazil and has unexplored niches, as in the case of a group of young runners who belong to Generation Y that called the attention of Nike’s running segment, and was the focus of this research study. The case study was conducted by the qualitative method, based on an empirical investigation, in addition to a literature review. In this sense, it addressed the emergence of Generation Y, and how was the progress of the media that monitored it during this transition, going through multi-platform advertising. This approach is followed by a study of the running market and the role of Nike in it, how the project emerged and its relationship with Generation Y’s behavior. Key words: Generation Y, running in Brazil, marketing strategy, consumer behavior studies, Nike Corre. 1. Introduction young people use personal or online social networks of influential groups they admire to determine what Generation Y has been a much discussed subject in they will consume [1].
