Print campaign to drive awareness of app and 360° vide content.

AR moving walkway directing passengers to concourse trial areas. The target demographic most likely has the money to be taking a family vacation once a year if they are in the market for Specialized bikes. Even if you aren’t looking especially for a Specialized bike immediately, vacationing families can experience both the Flow 360 travel app. The app has the capability to help schedule adventure mountain bike getaways for the family at special rates, has current your trip and flight schedule, has access to Flow Fam and other 360° video content as well online shopping as well as interesting AR functionality that works at flight gates. Special trial Flow 360° bike seats on concourses allow a fun interface to try the app and 360° video content while you wait for
your flights.

Among the 360° content is a webisode/web content we call Flow Fam. Ideally a new episode would be created every week. The content was designed to take advantage of 360° video to show biking but also create interest in characters that the target demographic can see themselves and their family in, and empathize with. Part reality TV, part sitcom and part Specialized Mountain Biking. This web series is designed to drive and maintain recurring website traffic and promote Specialized products and specials. This web series also drives engagement and retention of interest in Mountain Biking as a sport in general as well.
