Background

 

Finding the perfect name is tough. Case in point: the Chevy Nova. According to urban legend, the car didn’t fare so well in Spanish-speaking countries because Nova roughly translates as “No Go.” Not the sportiest name for your new sedan.

 

Speaking of cars that aren’t going anywhere, our Mystery Sponsor wants your help naming its amazing new on-demand roadside assistance service. It’s a mobile phone app that lets you instantly summon help when your car breaks down. But it’s more than just quick and easy towing – they’ll fix all kinds of painful auto issues. It’s the simplest, fastest way to service your car needs.

 

So what would you call this revolutionary new service/app? The brand plans on offering additional auto services in the future so they’re looking for a name that’s clever but broad and not just focused on roadside assistance. 

 

Objectives

 

The goal of this project is to come up with a memorable and exciting Name for this new service/mobile app. Names should instantly establish the pillars of the brand’s identity: simplicity, reliability and speed. Names should NOT be focused on just roadside assistance.
