The Campaign

BMW M automobiles polarize because they are unreasonable in many ways. They are too loud. They are too uncomfortble. They are too complicated. And that is exactly what brings their fans together. The endless, irrational love for their car – and being misunderstood by others.

Creative Execution

TOO LOW, TOO SENSITIVE, TOO NERDY... Each piece of our campaign focussed on a certain “TOO” Statement and told a story only true petrol heads can relate to. Every campaign asset led to a related article on the BMW-M.com. The web campaign was communicated via Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and banners.

Our campaign exceeded the target of 500.000 page visitors. The numbers for the first 3 months only: • the BMW-M.com had 726,476 visitors • the films had a reach of 59.5 millions and 19.7 million views • the BMW M Facebook page reached 2.5 million fans (+ 40 %) • the BMW M YouTube channel reached 63.000 fans (+ 23 %) • the BMW M Instagram page reached 1.4 Million fans (+ 1.328 %)

The campaign took place in multiple online channels, such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and banners. It was featured in many offline events, like the presentation of the disguised prototype of the all-new BMW M5 (TOO CONFIDENTIAL) and the disguised prototype of the all-new BMW M8 (TOO MANY SECRETS). It was also used for merchandise, such as shirts, sunglasses and stickers.

With the all-new BMW-M.com we created a tailor-made home for real petrol heads where TOO MUCH is just right. To promote the new site to all car enthusiasts, we focused on the obvious flaws of the BMW M models and their owners.
