Advance Auto Parts is launching a new national brand campaign targeting DIYers. The campaign introduces superfan Ed Vance, a bilingual brand character who can connect with these modern 16-34 DIYers in an authentic and entertaining way. It's a ''Do It Together'' movement that includes 30, 15 and 6-second spots along with a robust social media effort (@EdVance4Advance), with video messages appearing on relevant platforms such as Roku, Spotify, Pandora, Twitch and more.
Agency: The Marketing Arm

The campaign will also debut a new custom theme and sonic logo in two languages: “This is How We Advance” and “Avanza Con Advance” to drive brand recognition and affinity for Advance while providing a memorable, hummable tune for DIYers.

The campaign was developed through a collaboration of Advance partners including TMA (creative), dentsu X (Media), Dieste (Hispanic), BBMG (sonic branding) and FleishmanHillard (PR).
