Advertising?

[Krabby]

Just wondering if IA has done any real advertising thus far. Nothing here in the States, but we’re a year out. What about in UK, EU, or Oz? I did just see a sign ad on the pitch-side advertising boards at the Tot v Chelsea match this morning, but haven’t seen or heard anything else.

I haven't noticed anything in Germany either.

Why? Sold out for 3 years+ lol.

There are no ads for Unimog and similar. The vehicle is indirectly promoted. this is never a mass market vehicle and was never intended as such. So why waste money to TV, Radio or public communication boards?
not the customers they want and Ineos does anyway not need brand awareness

Well, they do spend a little on advertising...

Everything so far I have seen has been social media on their own platforms, in person promotions at 4x4 shows etc, their sports sponsorships and PR with media outlets. Haven’t seen and paid 3rd party advertising on TV, radio or in magazines etc, but all that tends to be the direction a lot of stuff is going paid direct advertising material has been on a steady decline for a while.

I don’t believe Tesla has ever advertised, so possible to sell plenty of cars with minimal advertising budget.

I expect that they wiil need to eventually advertise maybe in the third year or so. First year or two worth of production is really already sold.

Can-Am launched their 3-wheeler with just magazine coverage. Second year they were product placement in a movie and a TV show. I think it was 3 years before they started placing ads.

Edit: This is just IMHO(for Jean)

Amount of income from sales = nil.. The amount of capital required to get to this point is huge and in the millions per day i’‘d guess. I’m pretty sure there’s a finance director in Ineos who’s getting the cold sweats from the total lack of income from this huge project.

Yeah, IA signed up as Tottenham’s “official 4x4 partner” or some such late last year which seems odd to me for a couple of reasons:
1. Sir Jim is currently bidding for Manchester United and already owns Nice (France) and Lausanne (Switzerland)
2. Why associate the IA Grenadier 4x4 brand with a London club which is the home of urban SUV “Chelsea Tractors” doing the shopping/school run?

To answer your question, no media advertising only sports team sponsorship as others have already posted.

It dawned on me after I started the thread that Ineos was involved with Tottenham. I do wonder if Sir Jim is able to purchase United, would that relationship with Tottenham change?

Speaking as Man Utd Season Ticket Holder - yes it bloody well would have to change

I trust you'd back Sir Jim and crew before an outside group.
