''Just Do It '' (stylized as JUST DO IT.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Nike Classic Branding, with slogan "Just Do It." )〕) is a trademark of shoe company Nike, and one of the core components of Nike's brand. The slogan was coined in 1988 at an advertising agency meeting. The founder of Wieden+Kennedy agency, Dan Wieden credits the inspiration for his "Just Do It" Nike slogan to Gary Gilmore’s last words.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= The Birth of 'Just Do It' and Other Magic Words )〕 The "Just Do It" campaign allowed Nike to further increase its share of the North American domestic sport-shoe business from 18% to 43%, (from $877 million to $9.2 billion in worldwide sales) from 1988 to 1998.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Mini-case Study: Nike's "Just Do It" Advertising Campaign )〕 In many Nike-related situations, "Just Do It" appears alongside the Nike tick logo, known as the Swoosh. ==Campaign== The "Just Do It" campaign launched in 1988 was highly successful with the Age selecting the campaign as one of the top two taglines of the 20th century with it being both "universal and intensely personal".〔 Whilst Reebok was directing their campaign at aerobics during the fitness craze of the 1980s, Nike responded with "a tough, take no prisoners ad campaign". One of the campaign's objectives was to target all American regardless of age, gender or physical fitness level 〔 which led to Nike becoming worn as a fashion statement, not just as fitness gear (Nearly 80% of Nike’s running shoes aren’t worn for their intended purpose). Nike’s fundamental objective was to represent sneakers as a fashion statement to consumers, especially females, teens and males aged 18–40. Throughout the campaign Nike enlisted numerous notable athletes in order to attract customers and promote the image of Nike as being reliable to not only everyday customers but professional athletes. Athletes such as football stars Ronaldinho and Wayne Rooney, basketball stars Michael Jordan, and Kobe Bryant and tennis stars Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal were used in their advertisements, including a range of people from varying ethnicities and races.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Nike-Just Do It )〕 Nike was faced with criticism by Ernst & Young surrounding the campaign, with the pay of elite athletes compared to those in overseas shoe factories, and for violating the minimum wage in their operations in Vietnam.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The Nike Controversy )〕 The "Just Do It" campaign went out to a range of media outlets including merchandise, outdoor billboards, print media and graffiti art. The campaign embodied Nike's image as an innovative American icon associated with success through the combination of professional athletes and motivational slogans emphasizing sportsmanship and health. This led to customers associating their purchases with the prospect of achieving greatness.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Strategic Analysis of Nike )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Just Do It」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
