T3 | The Think Tank

Ford

Ford Motor Company, a global automotive industry leader, charged T3 with developing two innovative video training experiences within their Ford Dealer Connection intranet. T3 created FordTube, a video site that delivers training and product information to 50,000 company and dealership employees. The site allows staff to upload, view, comment on and rate training videos. We also produced “Countdown: Fiesta”, a 14-part video series that combined training, entertainment and social media to raise awareness for the new Ford Fiesta.

Ford: Fiesta Dealer Training Program

The 2011 Ford Fiesta was introduced with an innovative social media program that started more than a year before the car hit showrooms. To get dealers ready in advance, T3 developed Countdown: Fiesta, a 14-part video series that combined training, entertainment and social media.

Our insight: Training is boring.

Our solution: Mix information, sketch comedy, online contests and mobile alerts to talk about the new Fiesta in a completely new way.
