Ford has announced a new campaign to put some 3,000 small-business owners and consumers in 13 major cities behind the wheel of the 2010 Transit Connect commercial van " even before the vehicle reaches dealer showrooms this summer.

“Transit Connect is a brand-new offering for small businesses in the United States, said Len Deluca, Fords director of Commercial Vehicles. “We call it a white space vehicle because there is nothing else like it on the market. With its unique combination of great capacity, compact size and fuel economy, the Transit Connect will appeal to business owners who have had to make do with other vehicles that werent just right.

To experience the versatile Transit Connect, Ford is offering customers an opportunity to drive the Transit Connect over a pre-planned course designed to highlight the vehicles maneuverability and usefulness. The drives will be set up under tents in the parking lots of busy retail locations " frequented by professionals and consumers alike " across the country.

Additionally, small businesses in key markets including Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Kansas City, Los Angeles and New York will receive one-on-one drives and vehicle reviews at their places of business.

Ford also will showcase Transit Connect to small-business professionals at two major conferences this summer including the National Small Business Week, hosted by the Small Business Association, in Washington, D.C., May 17-19, and the Women in Business National Conference and Business Fair in San Francisco June 9-11.

As part of the campaign, Ford also is announcing a national sweepstakes offering prospective customers a chance to win one of the latest tools to better manage their business. Small-business proprietors and consumers experiencing a test drive will be entered in a sweepstakes to win a 2010 Ford Transit Connect van " specifically customized with upfitted equipment to meet the unique needs of their individual business. The winners Transit Connect also will be wrapped with customized graphics to serve as a rolling billboard for their business.

Integrated Marketing
A final element of the campaign is its unusual print advertising, launching in key business magazines and on Web sites in June. The ads underscore the vehicles versatility and capability, including its generous payload capacity " up to 1,600 pounds.

The creative executions illustrate diametrically opposed small businesses " a pastry chef and a personal trainer " both claiming that Ford was “thinking of me during the vehicles development. Transit Connects applicability to diverse commercial uses comes together with the tagline, “specific for everyone.

The advertisements will appear in Entrepreneur, Fortune Small Business, Inc., Business Week: Small Biz, Catering and American Painting Contractor.
