Atturo Tires

The situation

An affordable, high-quality alternative to the pricey “big-box” brands, Atturo is an aftermarket off-road and performance tire manufacturer focused on light truck, Jeep, SUV, crossover, and muscle car enthusiasts. To compete as David in a crowded tire industry dominated by Goliaths, Atturo needed to create stronger emotional bonds with its customers and prospects.

The insight

Atturo’s customers spend a lot of money on automotive aftermarket products and are very proud of their vehicle builds. Comprised primarily of male adventurers, hunters, fishers, campers, and outdoors fanatics, the customer base loves to have their trucks, Jeeps and cars be seen. They also love to see other vehicle builds and the adventures their owners are taking them on.

By leveraging the strategic pillars of Utility (informational content about the brand itself), Entertainment, Value, and Reciprocity (connecting with followers’ interests), Plan B shared user-generated content (UGC) to foster community and celebrate customers, developed educational posts about the features and benefits of Atturo tires, and infused the brand’s new “Go Your Own Way” positioning into messaging.
