Mazda again made a distinguishing appearance during the showings of the blockbuster Spiderman 3 at Al Shatti Plaza. Special posters were created where Mazda 3 cars were showcased. Inviting the moviegoers to take a view of the cars on display while they catch a show of the season’s biggest movie, Mazda wrote on the poster ‘3 – The best catch’.

Mazda has made use of the radio as an important medium of imparting news about their models. Radio is a top choice for Mazda for announcement of different promotions, radio slots for giving away prizes or simply gaining attention for their ongoing promotions. As a matter of fact, during the promotion for Spiderman 3, Mazda gave out two tickets as prizes to those who correctly answered questions on air.
As regards road shows, Mazda has always been more than just a car manufacturer as it tries to be more peculiar. Earlier this year, it was the first car brand in Oman to have a Valentine’s Promotion, wherein a brilliant display of the snazziest red Mazda cars in Oman made the ambience spectacular. Mazda recently organized a series of popular road shows at different Lulu Hypermarket outlets all over Oman.

This one-of-a-kind event had corporate hot shots walk the ramp with their partners, exuding creations of Hemant Trivedi, a renowned Indian fashion designer.
Annurag Chawla, Mazda’s Brand Manager, said that a brand is the gathering and implementation of a comprehensive marketing program. And in this modern era, when competition is very stiff, one has to be above the rest to be recognized, appreciated and patronized. With this, she concluded that building brand identity needs creative thinking to stand out. She further said that their company’s philosophy is what they convert into their new branding and marketing strategies.
