59%
The Audience:
People with little to no exposure to the autistic community.
The Problem:
A lack of understanding of the autistic community and how they are affected by everyday sounds and sights, often leaves people with ASD and their loved ones facing difficult prejudice and misconceptions.
Consumer Insight:
Everyday sounds and noises can prevent people with autism from accomplishing small tasks, goals, and possibly even big dreams.
Brand Insight:
Because of their noise-cancelling capabilities, Bose is a lifeline for niche groups like the autistic community. However, this angle has remained untapped in an industry thats marketing communications are saturated with the "athlete-listening-to-music" storyline.
The Strategy:
Bose will help people with autism feel seen while encouraging them to chase their dreams with aid from their noise-cancelling technology.
