Why are we advertising?
To convey to Windows users that Ubuntu is easy to learn.

I used XXX in windows is there something available for Ubuntu ?

Who are we talking to?
People who use Windows at home

=== Step 1. Find programs to your liking ===

Describe searching in Ubuntu Software Center
What do they currently think?
I know my way around Windows so why should I learn something new? I finally got my computer to work with my new phone and I just want to type some documents, read my email, get on Facebook, share photos, chat, and play a few games.

What would we like them to think?
Whether it’s using the web for social networking, writing a document, or managing a photo collection, Ubuntu is actually very easy and a joy to use for the things I do every day.

What is the single-most persuasive idea we can convey?
Ubuntu is easy and a joy to use. Just like modern smartphones, it's designed for anyone to use.

Why should the audience believe it?
They'll get up and running quickly and won't miss a single message or photo from their friends. Ubuntu supports all of the services that they use every day like email, chat, and Facebook and their documents, music, and other files are even compatible.

Are there any creative guidelines?
* Follow Canonical brand guidelines
* Should compliment campaign 1 (getting Windows users to just try ubuntu)
* Adverts should ideally support multiple languages

This campaign will support Campaign 1. The inspiration was PCPro's experiment of switching to Ubuntu for a day.

Goal

The goal of this campaign is to help Windows users that are testing out Ubuntu to easily get up and running quickly doing the things that they do most frequently.

Details

This campaign will publicize existing (or newly created) resources that sit between a product tour and full documentation. They might be called quickstart guides or 5 steps to program x. Community resources (i.e., Ask Ubuntu) were helpful to the PCPro team so they should also be highlighted.

Some metrics that we could use to measure the success of this campaign are:

  • increased participation at Ask Ubuntu and the types of questions asked
  • file download activity if PDF quickstart guides are created
  • tbd based on media selected

Focus applications

  • Web browser
  • Email
  • Office
  • Paint
  • Calculator
  • Sound recording
  • Media player - music
  • Media player - video
  • Burn a CD
