The objective – to secure media coverage on the issues surrounding cold weather tyres

The solution – capitalising on a question in the House of Commons by Gisela Stuart MP which name-checked Goodyear’s cold weather tyres

Our difference – strong established relationship with BBC science correspondent led to a story being aired within hours of being pitched

The result – interview with recently appointed UK MD George Rietbergen which included multiple key messages regarding Goodyear Dunlop’s cold weather tyre proposition; also fulfilled other target criteria of improving George’s visibility in the region
