NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC

Corporate Vehicles F.A.N. Program

 

Where available, the F.A.N. Program allows employees to take a company vehicle home “For A Night”.  It has been recognized that although Nissan offers an exciting product portfolio, employee experience with this wide range of product offerings is very limited.  The F.A.N. Program will provide employees an opportunity to experience these product offerings and improve their overall opinion.  The program was designed to boost employee brand ambassadorship through hands-on experience of the innovation, performance, and handling of the Nissan line-up.  To that end, employees are encouraged to participate in the program, learn more about the entire line-up, promote the vehicle to neighbors and friends, and showcase it in their respective communities during routine afternoon/evening activities.  The best-selling comes from word-of-mouth marketing; what better way to sell Nissan vehicles to the local community than to be sold on them ourselves - to be true fans of our brand and line-up!
