EXECUTIVE SUMMARYThe Fizz Agency had a great opportunity to develop a successful and innovative campaign for Velocity Bike Shop. We produced a campaign Velocity Bike Shop can easily implement step-by-step with our recommendations, creative strategies and public relations events. All of these elements are crucial to thecampaign and for Velocity Bike Shop to obtain high brand awareness, maintain customer retention and ac-quire new customers.

We believe our campaign encompasses everything Velocity is looking for in a new advertising and market-ing direction and strategy. The Fizz Agency is giving Velocity the tools to become the go-to local bike shop in Lubbock for college students, families and competitive cyclists.

The campaign will begin January 2013 and last through the entire year, ending in December. We conducted primary and secondary research to help us form our objectives. The Fizz Agency’s overall goal is to strength-en and build relationships between Velocity Bike Shop, its’ consumers and the Lubbock community. Our objectives are reasonable and measurable for this campaign.

CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES-Increase brand awareness by 25%-Increase the volume of likes on Velocity Bike Shop’s Facebook page by 100-Obtain at least 100 followers on Velocity Bike Shop’s Twitter account-Increase their bike repair awareness at Velocity Bike Shop by 25%

We went above and beyond to gather the best primary and secondary research. We conducted two surveys, a creative focus group and gathered information from consumer insight reports. The data gathered from our research helped to establish our creative strategies and tactics. After we conducted our creative focus group, we were able to incorporate all of the participants’ comments to select and produce our overall campaign, “What’s Your Terrain?”

We hope our campaign exceeds Velocity Bike Shop’s expectations and improves Velocity’s marketing and advertising approach in the future.

SITUATION ANALYSISAaron Uzzell founded Velocity Bike Shop in 2006. The store is still located on 50th and Memphis in Lubbock, Texas, their original location. The word, velocity, means speed. However if you break the word into two, velo and city, an interesting word interplay becomes apparent. Velo, means wheel in Italian. Therefore, the combination of the two syllables creates the brand phrase “wheel city”. The logo can be read both ways and there is a crank and chainring in place as the “O”.

Velocity has been a key supporter of the Texas Tech Cycling Team and is also a member of the West Texas Cycling Association, an organization that holds and promotes bike races and other events in the panhandle area of Texas.

Customer service is a top priority for Velocity. The employees believe in sending a customer to a competitor’s shop if Velocity cannot provide the brand of bike or accessory a customer needs. This shows that the employees put customer service first before making a sale.

The repair shop offers three levels of repairs, which range from a simple tune up to a full-bike repair. The repair shop area is located in the center of the shop for customers to view. Velocity prides itself on the bike knowledge of its employees. The bike repair area allows customers to witness the employees’ skills.

Velocity has something for everyone, whether it is top-of-the-line racing bikes or beginner bikes for kids. Velocity Bike Shop’s long-term goal is to eventually expand into the Midland/Odessa market. This goal is attainable because there is not a significant amount of competition in that market.

BRAND OVERVIEW

Velocity Bike Shop is located in the centerof Lubbock. This means more trafficis generated to attract potentially new consumers. Consumers interested in mountain biking, trail riding and road bikes are all attainable because of the products and services Velocity provides. The awareness of the shop is low and they are currently only using word-of-mouth to generate awareness.

CURRENT POSITION

As of 2010, the Lubbock population is at 229,573. Lubbock’s growing population consists of beginner bike riders, bicycle enthusiasts, leisure riders, and competitive cyclists. Because of Lubbock’s low cost of living, great schooling, college town environment and diverse business environment, people are inclined to stay in Lubbock and enjoy its full potential. Biking is a great way to stay in shape, have fun with family or friends, and get around town. The increasing price of gas is causing people to re-think low cost transportation, like public transit and most importantly bicycling.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Velocity’s welcoming and experienced staff makes for a great experience. Whether someone is getting a bike tune up, checking out new products, or purchasing a new bike, the experienced staff is available with incredible bike knowledge. Velocity specializes in road and mountain bikes, but also has a wide variety of bikes for leisure and beginner riders.

As mentioned before, Velocity is located in the center of Lubbock. This enables it to provide for a variety of consumers other than Texas Tech students. Some of its competitors are located more towards campus, therefore their competitors target market seems to lean toward Texas Tech students. Velocity’s current consumers consist of students, kids, professionals and workers. “We have a broad range of customer types that come through our doors. Since we are further away from Tech, we are not only a store that caters to Tech students.” Derek, manager at Velocity Bike Shop.

Velocity caters to a large variety of people which makes it a well-rounded bike shop. Velocity’s customers are categorized by their biking genres and experience, which include mountain bikers, BMX riders, racers and non-racers plus commuters. Consumers visit Velocity because their staff is veryknowledgeable about the bicycling industry. “ I went in looking for acertain part for my bike and they knew exactly what to give me. It was a very good experience. They (Velocity) are their own store,they will hook you up with what you need.” Adam Newton, participant in our creative focus group.

Yet, some consumers are more likely to shopat Walmart or Academy because of theirlow prices and their previous experienceswith the stores. Local bike shops arefinding more competition as these chain retail stores grow and increase their inventory in thebicycling industry.

Lubbock provides various bike purchasing options for consumers who are looking to purchase a new bike or bike gear. These locations include chain retailers, online retailers and local bike shops. The chain locations hold power over the local shops because of their well-known brand personalities. Although, the local shops are packed with customer service guarantees like repair centers and educated staff members.

GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND TARGET AUDIENCE

RESEARCHWe have decided for our primary research to conduct two surveys and a focus group, while also gathering secondary research through Experian Simmons Consumer Research Insights. Ourprimary and secondary research will allow us to focus on our three segmented target markets. In the end, our findings for our primary and secondary research helped develop our campaign.

RESEARCH GOALS -REASONS WHY PARTICIPANTS BIKE-TIMES OF THE YEAR PEOPLE BIKE-WHERE PARTICIPANTS BIKE-PARTICIPANTS FAMILIARITY WITH LOCAL BIKE SHOPS-PARTICIPANTS FAMILIARITY WITH VELOCITY BIKE SHOP-TYPE OF MEDIA PARTICIPANTS USE-IMPORTANCE OF BIKE REPAIR-PARTICIPANTS REASONS FOR OWNING OR BUYING A BIKE

EXECUTIONPRIMARYONLINE SURVEY: We designed an online survey to answer our research goals. We had 300 people complete our survey and we targeted all different ages groups to give us a variety of information.

CREATIVE SURVEY: We conducted a creative survey to see which logo people seemed to like the most. We had 93 people complete this survey.

CREATIVE FOCUS GROUP: We conducted a creative focus group with nine participants. The focus group had both professionals and students attend. This focus group was designed to determine which creative strategy our target audience could relate to and why.

SECONDARYExperian Simmons Consumer Research InsightsDefinition: “Instant profile reports, comprehensive data-mining, crosstabs and correspondence mapping provide in-depth understanding of consumer targets.”

We gathered consumer insights on how often people ride bikes, who rides bikes and how this information relates to their media consumption.

When determining our schedule of media, we discovered a pattern of bike riding through the seasons. As we suspected, Summer and Spring are the high point seasons.

PRIMARY SURVEY RESULTSOur primary survey results helped us determine our campaign direction and theme. Majority of our participants were students and professionals, ages 18-24, and almost evenly distributed between males and females.

Discovering where consumers are more likely to buy a bike helped us determine why and what the consumers like about Velocity Bike Shop’s competition.

WHERE DO PARTICIPANTS BUY BIKES39% Academy17% Walmart 6% Target 6% Online25% Local Bike Shops 7% “Other” (garage sales, Craigslist, etc.)

One of our main objectives is to increase the awareness of Velocity Bike Shop. We discovered majority of survey participantswere not aware of Velocity Bike Shop.

PARTICIPANT BIKE OWNERS45% Currently own a bike3% Do not own a bike, but rent when they ride38% Do not own a bike and are not interested in purchasing one14% Do not own a bike, but are interested in purchasing one

Finding a connection with our target audiences is key. An important online survey finding was social media and TV media produced high results. Media usage helped us determine where to divide media in our budget.

We figured out who our consumers are by asking whether or not they currently own a bike or are in the market for a new one.

CREATIVE FOCUS GROUPOur team discussed three potential ideas for our campaign to our nine participants. We wanted to get insight about which direction we should take.

The participants who previously knew about Velocity Bike Shop gave us their opinions about what Velocity has to offer consumers. They informed us Velocity’s employees are friendly and are very knowledgeable about the bicycling industry. This led us to consider focusing part of our campaign attention on the bike repair portion of Velocity.

Our participants’ biking experience ranged from beginner to expert. This provided uswith several different opinions and experiences when we showed participants ourcreative samples. We discovered competitive cyclists like intensity associated with Velocity while other lower-level bikers preferred a relaxing and non-aggressive tone.

Our participants liked certain aspects from each big idea and from there we were ableto mix the three big ideals into one solid campaign theme. We were able to focus onour three segmented markets.

EXPERIAN SIMMONS CONSUMER RESEARCH INSIGHTSOf those who rode bikes in the last 12 months

GENDER MALE-Of the Male population sampled, 15.8% rode in the last 12 months.-Within the last 12 months, 60.7% were Male.

"I like that it was an intense action shot.""It's all about getting someone's adrenaline going."

"If I saw the looking up and looking down with different bikes and gear it would make me think of this store selling different type of bikes and stuff."

"I like that the tagline was short and simple.""I LIKE THE TERRAIN IDEA A LOT, IF YOU COULD FIND A SIMPLE WAY"

I like the representation of all three colors starting with the DARKEST working towards the LIGHTEST.“ ”Having black in the front half of the logo really gets my attention.“ ”

CREATIVE SURVEYUsing SurveyMonkey.com, we were able to find out which logo option was preferred and gather comments about why they chose their favorite logo.

TV: Of the people who rode bikes in the last 12 months, 20% were exposed to TV all day.

RADIO: Of the people who rode bikes in the last 12 months, 20.4% were exposed to radio all day.

COUPONS: Of the people who rode bikes in the last 12 months, 40.8% use coupons.

REBRANDINGWith the addition of the new Velocity Bike Shop logo, we took into consideration all aspects of its current branding elements. This includes rebranding all letterheads, business cards, envelopes, store sign and brochures. By rebranding these elements it continues our theme of taking a new direction with Velocity.

BIKE CHECK With high results of bike repair importance from our survey, we decided it was crucial to rebrand Velocity’s repair shop. Their repair shop will now becalled Velocity Bike Check. It is called Bike Check because it reminds currentand new customers to periodically check the quality and efficiency of theirbikes by bringing it in to Velocity. This is an easy way to boost Velocity’s sales, reputation and help us reach our goal of raising Velocity’s bike repair awarenessby 25%.

STYLE GUIDEWith the new color scheme we decided to add grey to the color palette. Since this is a college city we wanted to differentiate Velocity from Texas Tech University’s school colors. This also would make Velocity stand out among its competitors.

LOGO REDESIGN We conducted a creative survey to discover which logo of our creation would be most appealing. The survey included a total of four different logos to choose from, including the current logo. Out of 93 completed surveys, the favorite was option three. The updated color scheme includes a new color in the palette, grey. We also wanted to incorporate Velocity being separated into two words, “Velo” and “City”. The black and red font colors, along with the grey chainring, emphasize the separation of the word.

STORE SIGNThe current Velocity outdoor sign does not include Velocity Bike Shop’s new campaign color scheme, we found it important to update the store sign. The store sign will now showcase Velocity’s new redesigned logo.

STRATEGY The Fizz Agency developed strategies that centered around our three target audiences. Velocity will encourage the audiences to discover adventure and solutions through bikes, accessories and Velocity services.

TONEThe Fizz Agency wants to communicate to Velocity’s consumers a variety of tones depending on which segment of the market we are targeting. Our tone is powerful and challenging. We wanted to subtly challenge the audience to discover their terrain in an assertive yet, informative way. Also, the tone is adventurous, high-energy and centered around a sense of community.

CAMPAIGN NAMEThe definition of Velocity is the direction of speed. Using this theme of direction, we considered all the different paths bike riders take. The term TERRAIN is our way of connecting all paths with our target audiences.

ADRENALINE BILLBOARDThe first billboard showcases a cyclist experiencing an adrenaline rush while on their bike in an extreme terrain. The billboard is placed outside of Lubbock to reach our audience while they are on their way to extreme terrain locations such as Palo Duro Canyon. A competitive cyclist, meaning those who compete in races or who are competitive in nature, will be able to relate to this billboard. It is important to not show the face of the rider so the viewer can place them-selves in the riders’ point of view. There is a call to action to send viewers to Velocity’s location or online to their website.

ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION BILLBOARDThe second billboard targets our budget-conscious college audience. With gas prices on the rise, students are looking for alternatives to driving to campus and around Lubbock. The billboard suggests a benefit of riding a bike is biking to campus. The billboard is placed right near campus because college students will always pass through this area on their way to or from campus. The

The competitive cyclist audience will be reached, seeing as they ride many miles in races, for transportation and leisure.

Track Your Terrain is another opportunity to expand on the social media for Velocity Bike Shop, which will be overlooked by the Brand Ambassador. Track Your Terrain participants will be able to take photos on Instagram of all the terrain they visit, update their Foursquare on the various biking terrains and post to Twitter using the hashtag #TrackYourTerrain or #TYT.

RECOMMENDATIONSPARTNERSHIP BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF LUBBOCK (BBBS)

We also recommend Velocity Bike Shop continue and form a more prominent and assertive partnership with the Texas Tech Federal Credit Union Bike Tech Bike Loan program. In the past, thepartnership with TTFCU has not been used to its full potential.

Bike Tech, in conjunction with the Texas Tech Federal Credit Union, created the Bike Tech Loans Program to loans $500 to Tech students so they can purchase a bike from a local bike shop, interest free for up to a year. The local bike shops that are already in partnership are DFC, Broadway Bikes and Tech Outdoor Pursuits Center.

During the creative focus group we asked our participants about their TTFCU Bike Tech Bike Loan knowledge and majority had no knowledge the program existed. When asked if they would have used the program during their college careers, a majority of them agreed they would have looked into the program had they known about it.

Knowing this, we recommend Velocity informs their customers about the TTFCU Bike Tech Bike Loan at the shop, online and via social media. Traditional media spots such as, billboards, radio spots, and print can be utilized to promote the partnership so students use their bike loan at Velocity’s competitors.

We recommend Velocity Bike Shop to form a partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lubbock mentoring program.

“We have known all along that Big Brothers Big Sisters’ mentoring has a long-lasting, positive effect on children’s confidence, grades, and social skills,” affirms Karen J. Mathis, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America’s President and CEO.

Teaming up with the BBBS will communicate a movement of community and formulate a good image for Velocity Bike Shop. In Lubbock there is a huge opportunity raise awareness about Big Brothers Big Sisters. Partnering Velocity with BBBS will provide another outlet to spread the word about the inspiring program.

The mission of The Big Brothers Big Sisters Program is to help children reach their potential through professionally supported, one-to-one relationships with mentors who have a measurable impact on youth. Becoming a community supporter of the BBBS will be beneficial for the Velocity Bike Shop for three main reasons.

The first reason the partnership will be beneficial is the positive PR generated from the partnership. Since awareness is one of our main objectives, the BBBS partnership will help achieve our objective.

Expanding Velocity Bike Shop’s reach is the second reason BBBS partnership will bebeneficial. One of our segment markets is families. They enjoy being involved in thecommunity and feel as though a company is more trustworthy when they care about their local community.

The final reason the partnership with BBBS will benefit Velocity is the established relationship BBBS has with college students. College students spend time with their little sisters or brothers on a weekly basis and they would associate the BBBS message with Velocity’s community message.

Social media is making a huge impact on the way people respond to advertising. We plan to create and update four branches of social media. These include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Foursquare. This will help us reach our objectives of increasing volume of likes on Velocity’s Facebook page by 100 and obtaining at least 100 followers on Velocity’s Twitter account. Facebook is an outlet people use to contact friends, keep up with news and find more information about the companies and industries of interest. A complete update on the Velocity Bike Shop Facebook page would include updated logo and branding elements, photos of the store, employee information, and products and services. The page would feature all PR events, Velocity Bike Check and Track Your Terrain Rewards Program.

We recommend Velocity Bike Shop create a Twitter account. Twitter is a microblogging service, allowing users to send and read short 140 character “tweets” or updates. Velocity Bike Shop can inform Twitter users about the shop, bike safety tips and also create conversations with followers. Hashtags are a quick and simple way to sort posts by a certain topic or type. Velocity’s Twitter account will showcase hashtags (#) to generate buzz for upcoming events and raise brand awareness.

Instagram is an increasingly popular Smartphone photo sharing program, which allows users to digitally alter their photographs and share photographs with statuses. Through Instagram, Velocity’s social media has opportunity to be visually appealing and be cohe-sive with our terrain theme. Users will be able to tag and mention Velocity Bike Shop in any photos they take at Velocity Bike Shop, on their own terrain, or at any of PR events.

Foursquare is a social networking site used on Smartphones, which allows users to “check-in” at locations. A user’s location is based on GPS software in their Smartphone. Foursqure ties in with our campaign theme because allows our audience to “check-in” at their terrain of choice and answering our campaign question, What’s Your Terrain?

Social media is an influential part of Velocity Bike Shop’s campaign when reaching the college audience. Using Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Foursquare we plan to increase the reach of our campaign audience, especiallycollege students.

SOCIAL MEDIA

what’s your

TERRAIN?

23

We recommend the creation of a new intern position, brandambassador, who will be tracking and organizing social media and marketing for Velocity Bike Shop. He or she, a student, will need a background in advertising or marketing, graphic design and social media. The brand ambassador will act as the liaison for the college audience.

Along with creating and maintaining the new website, the brand ambassador’s duties will consist of: Updating every element of the Facebook page, such as, posting pictures, updating posts and reminding the public of upcoming events.

The brand ambassador will be responsible for tweeting, building relationships with Twitter followers and create trending topics about Velocity Bike Shop.

Foursquare is another form of social media the brand ambassador will oversee. Their duties will include monitoring “check-ins” of customers at Velocity Bike Shop.

The brand ambassador will run the Instagram account for Velocity Bike Shop. He or she will be responsible for capturing photos of terrain around Lubbock to keep in theme with our campaign. He or she will also showcase the shop and gear via Instagram and website posts.

The final duty of the brand ambassador will be implementing guerilla marketing for Velocity Bike Check services. The brand ambassador will travel to local hot spots, campus and parks, to tag bikes with the Velocity Bike Check bike hanger.

The brand ambassador will be crucial to maintaining and acquiring Velocity Bike Shop’s social media audience. The length of the intern position can either be by semester or by academic year. We recommend the brand ambassador is paid minimum wage.
