A restructured and 'refreshed' Novell gets down to business
Article Abstract:
Orem, UT-based Novell Inc. has fashioned a new corporate image by launching a no-nonsense business-to-business campaign in summer 1997 with product-based ads. The company then changed its ads into a testimonial format that feature executives from fast- growing firms touting its products. Novell corporate marketing senior vice president John Slitz upholds the straight-talking set of advertisements that spoke directly to the business-technical decision-makers. Slitz added the new ads created by agency Young and Rubicam for a cost of $6 million to $7 million will help the company streamline its global advertising.
