To combat the expected sweltering summer heat in the months ahead, A&W will begin touring a mobile ice-cold smoothee and slushee machine around the Yakima area for consumers just in time for Independence Day, beginning July 3rd.

A&W will utilize a special mobile advertising truck for their “Sweets & Treats” campaign, which features 10 scrolling billboards showcasing the new A&W Cherry Lemonade slushee and BananaBerry Dream smoothee.  In a 3D mobile showroom, the truck will feature a replica of a 1950’s A&W diner, serving samples of the sweet treats to event crowds.

The state-of-the-art truck comes courtesy of GoMobile, an experimental marketing company that A&W is partnering with for their campaign.  “The idea of a mobile drink machine where we could physically show consumers the product on-the-go is just what A&W needed for these summer events,” said Chris Schuler, President of GoMobile.

A&W and GoMobile’s campaign will wrap up August 3rd.

Prada, Abercrombie+Fitch and Marc Jacobs: These are not names that you would typically associate with your local Goodwill store, but beginning this summer, you will! Currently in Shoreline and launching in Bellevue and Seattle this year, Fashion Focus, a new section of brand name and designer gently-used clothing offers big brands at Goodwill’s trademark low prices.

“We want Goodwill to be synonymous not only with our mission, to provide quality, effective job training and basic education, but also with quality, stylish clothing at amazing prices,” said Catherine McConnell, Vice President of Development and Communications at Goodwill.

In their Fashion Focus campaign, Goodwill is partnering with GoMobile Advertising to create a 3D showroom on GMA’s signature mobile billboard truck. The display features dress forms in designer outfits and junior trends found at Goodwill stores in a clean, all-white room backdrop.

“The 3D showroom is going to be extremely compelling to the public. The designer looks really pop off of the stark white background, and we can’t wait to see the reaction it gets touring the Seattle streets,” said Chris Schuler, President of GoMobile Advertising.

The trucks began showcasing the exhibit around the Seattle area on Friday, June 20 and will finish Friday, June 27. Three scrolling billboards for Goodwill have also been running on GoMobile Advertising trucks since their partnership began on March 3. Goodwill’s campaign with GoMobile, which also features radio and newspaper promotions, will wrap up in late December.
