OneHelluvaRide - 20,000 miles to the Arctic Circle
 
         
The crazy bunch

The OneHelluvaRide expedition is going to be heavily and aggressively promoted across media platforms. A consolidated public relations exercise will be undertaken to keep the expedition alive and relevant in the media - press, television, internet, mobile, retail and outdoor - prior to, during and after the expedition. Some of the planned promotional activities that are planned are:

  • Dedicated expedition microsite on www.OutThere-Adventurers.com and www.DirtyOldBoots.com
  • Daily diaries on microsites with photographs
  • Weekly video capsules on microsites
  • Consumer contests
  • eDMs sent to registered users of the internet partners
  • Groups & fan clubs on social networking sites
  • Interactions with at least a dozen schools in India
  • Video trailers on YouTube
  • Google AdWords and Facebook Ads campaigns
  • DVDs on sale - online and from bookstores
  • Release of full length docu-feature film
  • Webisodes on expedition website
  • Photo exhibition in New Delhi and Mumbai
  • Coffee table book - 100 Sunsets to the Arctic Circle

The Sponsor a Mile, Sponsor a Smile campaign and the Whispering Wishes movement will be heavily promoted particularly through public relations. Overall, OneHelluvaRide will be extensively promoted, starting about a month prior to the flag-off, through the four month duration of the ride and at least a couple of months after the team is back ... almost seven months of intensive media presence.
