The put winter background image behind the car. This is how Nigeria is selling out. This car is marketed for Nigerian middle class and it suppose to have everything about Nigeria around it at list Lagos Skyline or Abuja. The ad agency who is involve in this ad need to be fired. then again this this is Nigeria a place were sometimes things are not properly organised.

There is nothing wrong with the ad Campaign. It would snow in Nigeria one day! Afterall we now have terrorists,militants and so on IN NIGERIA too. Moreover we are also targeting international buyers. Innoson has done very well. He deserves to be commended!

For once i was proud that a nigerian without the help of the goverbment succeeded in making our own nigerian automobile company function so at last we can say this car is proudly nigerian and also boost our economy.And then this. Just like a statement without a full stop, what is this picture suppose to signify? Can i actually trust my life into the hands of the manufacturer of this car? if he feels that looks matter more than functionality? where in nigeria do i find ice roads to drive this car?

jayosana said...

What if the advert poster was not targeting Nigerians but Europeans and Americans... So I don't see anything wrong with the snow picture...
good work innoson, I'm impressed.

Stop castigating the beautiful ads... The Advert is not made for Naija alone. The industry is also targeting Euro, America, Asia, Australia etc...

After all, Nigerians don't buy made in Naija goods... hence, they are targeting world mkt.

Anonymous said...

What if this part of the campaign is targeted at the International market?
Would Innoson not make good money exporting these cars to other continents - at a cost to be perhaps lower than the Chinese?
Hyundai, Toyota, BMW all advertise their cars in climes other than that which they were made.

So kini big deal?

So what if there's snow...
Isn't it a known fact that Nigerians tend to appreciate foreign scenery, or foreign-tinged products.

Hypocrites, Gotcha-think freaks the lot of you.

PS: I am not connected to the advertising team. Just reasoning out of the box.

Linda, but we see all these foreign cars advertising for the Nigeria market showing adverts with snow in the background, and we see nothing wrong in that. Why now with IVM? I don't see anything wrong with the advert. They're just trying to say that the vehicle is rugged and can conquer any terrain. Though it would have been preferable to use Nigeria terrain.

Seriously Nigerians, when did "made in Nigeria" = "only sold in Nigeria?" This is just one of many adverts...the least this man needs right now is condemnation from his own country people, Please try and encourage this man other than faulting things you are not even sure about. FYI, A car that can conquer the gliding of the hard ice on a road depicts a very strong car. Most cars' company here use the snow ad to show a car and its engine can also withstand a freezing weather. I bet if you leave that your naija car under the snow, it will malfunction.
So my Dear Linda blogger, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this picture except you expect him never to go global.

I think they are thinking outside the box, why? they also what to make sales outside the country. Think outside the box and stop abusing! its called strategic marketing...

My fellow Nigerians. Please stop being narrow minded and embrace other possibilities. Can we not make a vehicle that can be exported to other regions of the world? Why are we so stuck thinking in a straight line? I bet none of you have seen the ad where this picture was extracted. Get something doing and stop criticizing people that are trying to help grow this nation.
