Detroit’s New Sky-High Landmark
Detroit’s New Sky-High Landmark
Overview
If you’ve been in a Detroit skyscraper or flown into Detroit Metropolitan Airport recently, you might have noticed something new on the cityscape: giant logos on the roof of Ford Field. This eye-catching addition is part of Ford’s preparation for the 2006 Super Bowl, where the Detroit Lions play. According to the Detroit News, a massive south-facing logo, measuring 153 by 316 feet, is already in place. A north-facing counterpart will be installed soon. These logos are also visible from Interstate 75, but their primary purpose is to catch the eye during Super Bowl blimp shots.Spotlight on Strategy
Why the investment in these $175,000 blue ovals? It’s all about exposure. During the Super Bowl, a 30-second TV spot costs around $2 million. So, if the logos appear for just 2.625 seconds, Ford will have already recouped its investment. Given the extensive aerial coverage typical of the event, these logos are likely to be on camera for far longer.A New Era in Advertising
Ford’s innovative marketing approach is emblematic of advertising trends in sports. This could pave the way for even more dramatic displays?"imagine open stadiums with 100-yard logos painted on the grass. Soon, we might see teams like the Baltimore Ravens playing on a massive M & T Bank emblem at M & T Bank Stadium.Instead of mentioning yards gained, sportscasters might call plays by logo landmarks: “Favre scrambles to the last ‘M’ serif for a first down!”
As companies continue to find new ways to integrate advertising into sports, expect to see logos proliferate wherever sponsorship dollars can be made.
