A new, original song created specifically for the ad campaign is a key feature of the partnership, the song is "I drove all night". Other elements include personal appearances by Dion, special consumer promotions, dealer tie-ins, interactive communications, owner communications, retail initiatives, television programming and recording tie-ins. "Celine Dion personifies the Chrysler brand slogan, 'Drive & Love'..." said Jim Schroer, Executive Vice President, Global Sales and Marketing, DaimlerChrysler. "This is the kind of branded harmony you dream about". As new and redesigned Chrysler vehicles are introduced over the next 18-24 months, the corporation´s strategy is to move the Chrysler brand more upscale by attracting younger, more affluent consumers to its passionately designed, precisely engineered vehicles. "The partnership with Ms. Dion is a key component of that strategy", said Schroer. Chrysler´s ad campaign featuring Celine turned great sales. Just one year after signing a three year, $14 million deal with Dion, Chrysler has decided to speed away from the ad campaign and refocus its efforts on upping the company´s image without the singer´s face. Dealers complained the ads sold more of the star than the car and before the campaign was even launched, Chrysler´s ad agency, BBDO, advised against Dion´s celebrity endorsement.
