Lexus Chooses MediaBrix for an Industry First Cross-Platform, Immersive Social and Mobile Advertising Campaign to Introduce the 2013 Lexus ES
MediaBrix Was Selected by Lexus to Launch the First Automotive Branded Advertising Integration Within Zynga's Popular Mobile Social Game Draw Something

(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 09/24/12 -- , the only end-to-end, in-app social and mobile advertising solution for Fortune 500 marketers, today announced that it has been selected by Lexus for an immersive social and mobile advertising campaign to launch the 2013 Lexus ES and first-ever ES hybrid. The cross-platform mobile and social campaign will harness the power of immersive and interactive advertising as a way to appeal to the Lexus ES core demographic, drivers with a younger mindset aged 45 and under.
Lexus is the first automotive company to partner with MediaBrix to fully integrate and run engaging, immersive and interactive advertising within Draw Something, a popular mobile social game by Zynga, the world's leading provider of social game services. Lexus is also the first automotive company to feature brand-specific color schemes and elements in Draw Something. As part of the cross-platform campaign, many of the drawings created on the mobile app will be uploaded onto the Draw Something Facebook page where users will also have a chance to be featured as the "Lexus Stunning Doodle of the Day."
The power behind this campaign is MediaBrix's and products. SocialFusion delivers a scalable, exclusive integration to Lexus. Through SocialFusion, the Lexus brand becomes an integral part of the gameplay through a custom color palette and word pack, inspiring positive brand recognition and association among the dedicated and massive Draw Something player base. The campaign also includes MediaBrix's SocialFlex product, which offers marketers an immersive brand engagement unit that fits seamlessly into Draw Something. SocialFlex, a complement to SocialFusion, offers Lexus a way to expand the brand experience through high-impact video advertising featuring the Lexus ES. SocialFlex was developed specifically with a non-disruptive user experience in mind and is delivered during natural breaks in apps and games across social and mobile platforms.
"Lexus continues to bring innovative advertising through great brand experiences via highly engaged mobile and social platforms," said Teri Hill, Lexus media manager. "Partnering with MediaBrix and integrating into the widely popular mobile social Zynga game Draw Something, Lexus brings together the style and design message through the 'Draw Something Stunning' campaign."
"We are pleased to help Lexus appeal to its core demographic through immersive and interactive advertising that respects the user's experience. We know Lexus is going to benefit greatly from this industry-first, stunning campaign," said Ari Brandt, Co-founder and CEO of MediaBrix.
