Bosch has launched an exciting, multimedia "Light ‘Em Up!" spark plug campaign intended to generate and sustain enthusiastic "buzz" about Bosch spark plugs, and demonstrate to motorists that "Bosch is the right plug for me." The campaign utilizes both traditional and progressive media, including cell phone technology, to impress upon enthusiast motorists who are passionate about their cars that Bosch spark plugs provide the most powerful spark they can buy.
One of the most ambitious promotional campaigns Bosch has ever undertaken, the "Light ‘Em Up!" campaign features:
• Bosch’s exclusive, FREE Light ‘Em Up Dyno mobile spark plug application that turns the motorist’s iPhone or iPod touch into a dynamometer within the vehicle, complete with special skins for the popular hand-held device, with an expanded-function version available for only $4.99;
• A dedicated "Light ‘Em Up!" website, at www.lightemup.com, featuring Web-based episodes of Hendrick Motorsports team members sharing "What lights them up," links to a dedicated YouTube channel and the unique, Bosch Light ‘Em Up Dyno application, plus info on rebate promotions, product information, a retail locator and parts finder;
• The "Light ‘Em Up!" rebate program, which provides significant rebates of up to $2 each on the purchase of Bosch premium spark plugs; also offering an additional $4.99 rebate with the purchase of Bosch spark plugs and the expanded-function Light ‘Em Up Dyno app;
• Bosch "Light ‘Em Up!" messaging integrated into video games; and
• Print and online advertising, including home page takeovers and push-downs on selected websites, and public relations aimed at the enthusiast motorist.

"The Light ‘Em Up" campaign uses both traditional and progressive media to generate excitement for premium Bosch spark plugs, and provide auto enthusiasts with the rationale and incentive to purchase and install Bosch plugs.
