uberPOOL still feels hitchhiking-lite…
...it’s a lottery and you never know who you
might end up with.

The “Premium Executive”

And lastly, uberPOOL lacks a clear identity
The “Utilitarian”
Brand
The “Delivery” Brand
The “Yellow Taxi without the hassle”

uberPOOL isn’t Cool
...we need to first shift perceptions
To drive usage amongst new and
existing users...
Those who want to escape from the utilitarian routine of public transport and embrace the unexpected in a fun and entertaining way.
We need to tap into the mindset of people who find comfort outside their comfort zone.
New York is full of people with a feeling for the tangential adventure, the risky adventure, the interlude that’s not likely to end in any double-ring ceremony.

Meet Jumper Jack Flash:He takes the subway and relishes the unexpected shout of “Showtime!”
Last night he had dinner at the Mission Chinese pop-up.
And, he had a 10 minute conversation with the table next to him about LCD Soundsystem.
When his friends went to Shakespeare in the Park without him, he had major FOMO.
This weekend, he’s completing a quest to eat at Thrillist’s “Best Taco Shacks.” One is in Rockaway. What better way to get there than uberPOOL?
So, we will...
....Get Culture Jumpers...
...To jump into an uberPOOL...
...By inspiring them to embrace their innate love for unexpected and unique experiences.
When they’re already in an adventurous fun mindset!
On the lookout for new activities/events Heading home after a long day
Out for a night on the town Having some weekend fun
Convert new people to uberPOOL
Engage loyalists
And give them all reasons to stay
We’ll take advantage of these opportunities where our target is primed for the unexpected to...
Famous New Yorkers will be jumping in for the ride with UberPool for a week.
After all, you never know who you could meet?
We will ask people to share their experiences with #onlyinuberPOOLny
