TVC, OLV, Print, OOH

We recommend leading with one hero technology. If featuring multiple, tailor the key message in accordance to the format and media touchpoint. Showcasing multiple features requires evolving the key message, and selecting the suitable formats and media channels to make the communications impactful.

Integrate the technology into the storyline in a simple, yet exciting way. NIM is the Brand Differentiator, a unique attribute that supports the excitement promise - our tech should always empower the drivers.

Leverage ALL ELEMENTS to showcase the tech. Consider sound, text, acting, music and all other creative elements to emphasize the moment in which the tech appears, so it will be memorable to consumers.

Always apply the NIM Logo when NIM technology is used, and if showing a model equipped with NIM features. NIM Logo should be used strategically as a signifier for NIM, applied to scenes showcasing the technology.

Identify the tech by its NAME. Always feature the technology name by super when it is showcased. Voiceover may also be used if the medium allows for it. Technology names should be kept in English*.

Use NIM Expression to amplify the narrative of our tech. NIM Expression is a complementary tool that elevates the emotional and functional benefits.

*If local language translation is necessary for your market, please inform Global Brand Execution Department (QMB) via your Regional Naming Specialist (RNS).
