  • The campaign focuses on celebrating the moments of happiness

    Tonic Worldwide creates #WakaoMoment for Dinshaw’s

    By A Correspondent

     

    Dinshaw’s Ice cream has launched its summer 2019 campaign titled, #WakaoMoment. The campaign focuses on celebrating the moments of happiness.

     

    The campaign is released dominantly in digital media and is supported by radio and outdoor in major markets of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Uttar Pradesh.

     

    Said Jamashp Bapuna – Joint Managing Director and Zervin Rana – Director Sales & Marketing and Dinshaw’s Dairy Foods said: “Taste, quality, sensuality and romance have been overexploited in Ice Cream category. The consumer does not necessarily look for these. The brand needs to connect with them at their life moments and give them an emotional reason to engage. Hence the 2017 campaign celebrated friendship and togetherness under the theme was “Dil Ki Dosti pighalti Nahi” and 2018 campaign “Taste in tongue out” celebrated the temptation to eat ice cream. Salivating tongue-out whenever people see someone eating ice cream humorously represented it. The 2019 campaign addresses the core target group of today’s youth and tries to speak to them in their language. It is again slice-of-life representation. The brand is part of their life and is providing them with a new currency to express the excitement and happiness of their #WakaoMoment.”

     

    Added Sanjeev Kotnala, Marketing Advisor with the brand: “When you don’t have a word to express sudden happiness shout Wakao.  #WakaoMoments are simple moments and not rare in life. We have been conscious of the fact that the situations we use represent the lifestyle and local connections for the consumers in our markets. We are conscious of the fact that happiness should be the most democratized emotion and feeling. There is no measurement and process to evaluate happiness. But we through our own life, constraints and freedom, experiences and examples have created our measurement of happiness. So, it is entirely individualistic and unique for each one of us. And we have our unique ways to demonstrate happiness verbally and through actions. Just find a #WakaoMoment and celebrate it with Dinshaws Ice Creams.”

     

    Said Sudish Balan, Chief Business Officer, Tonic Worldwide: “Wakao is a creative expression for all celebratory moments and slice of life moments of happiness which strategically placed Dinshaw’s in the centre of all celebrations. The objective is to get people to celebrate all these moments with Dinshaw’s leading to brand love and sales. Additionally, it creates an emotional connect with youth audiences looking for a cool conversational lingo.”

    By A Correspondent

     

    In line with its marketing strategy for the summer season, Orient Electric has launched a new TVC featuring MS Dhoni to introduce its new range of IoT-enabled air-coolers.

     

    Said Saurabh Baishakhia, Sr. VP and Business Head, Home Appliances, Orient Electric Limited: “We are continuously focusing on using technology led innovation to create the differentiation that the new age consumers expect. By introducing a complete lineup of IoT-enabled air coolers which can be controlled via Orient Smart mobile app and voice assistants (Alexa & Google Assistant), we have clearly created a differentiator in the segment. The new TV commercial brings out the characteristic features of our air cooler range by means of a witty dialogue between MS Dhoni and Chikki. I am sure that this TV spot will capture the audience attention and create a lot of excitement about Orient’s IoT-enabled air coolers.”

     

    Added Sagar Mahabaleshwarkar, CCO, Contract: “It’s not just talking about a new range of coolers but also the fact that it comes from the house of Orient. Which is why it was imperative to use the larger narrative that has been used for Orient Electric time and again, that of MS Dhoni and his on-screen niece ‘Chikki’.  And subsequently humanise all the innovative features of the coolers within it.”

    McDonald’s urges the youth to vote and make a difference

    By A Correspondent

     

    To encourage young voters to go out and make their choice in the ongoing elections, McDonald’s has executed an interesting social activation. As a part of the activation, customers who didn’t vote in the ongoing elections were served something other than what they had ordered. When the baffled customers complained about the wrong order, the crew pointed out that since they did not cast their vote, they have lost their right to choose what they want.

     

    The activation was  conceptualised and executed by the DDB Mudra Group.

     

    Sharing his views on this campaign, Arvind R.P., Director – Marketing and Communications, Hardcastle Restaurants Pvt. Ltd., said: “At McDonald’s, we believe in standing up for good and with this social initiative we are making a small yet significant effort to sensitize the youth about the power of their vote and urge them exercise their right to choose their elected representative. The message is simple – if you don’t vote, you lose the right to choose.  We feel it is our duty as a responsible corporate citizen to drive the change that we want to see in the mindset of the Indian youth. In a few cases, we actually had customers who came back to our restaurants after voting and that is a testimony of the how small efforts can make a big difference.”

    FCB Ulka launches latest ad campaign for He Deodorants

    By A Correspondent

     

    He Deodorants launched its latest advertising campaign created by FCB Ulka. Said Harsh Vardhan Agarwal, Director, Emami Ltd: “The deodorant category in India is highly saturated and cluttered. With the presence of multiple players, it is becoming increasingly difficult to break through this clutter and stand out. He as a brand has a strong legacy of differentiation from the very beginning.

     

    This time, we found through our consumer research that there is an increasing dual usage trend wherein one in five users currently use two or more deos on a regular basis just from the need of variety and the urge of not smelling the same every time. Triggered by this consumer need, we have brought in a category disrupting solution through He Magic Duo where we are offering two fragrances at the price of one. We believe that He Magic Duo with its breakthrough packaging is going to create a stir in the consumer mindspace.”

     

    Added Kulvinder Ahluwalia, President, FCB Ulka, Mumbai: “It is invigorating to work on a new client and chart a new path for a brand. Our first campaign with Emami for HE Deo’s is a perfect example of this. Leveraging its unique two fragrances in one pack, the films position He Deo’s Magic Duo as something that raises the possibility of even the unbelievable becoming believable, because He now makes two fragrances in one pack. Each of the films is a treat to watch and this is sure to be among the most talked about campaigns in the category.”

     

     

  • The TVC drives awareness on the use of a “soap-free” face wash for pimples

    Himalaya TVC focuses on soap-free facewash

    By A Correspondent

     

    Himalaya highlights the benefits of using Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash over an ordinary toilet soap as a solution to tackle pimples in its new campaign.

     

    Abhinav Chugh, Category Manager – Face Wash, Consumer Products Division – Marketing, The Himalaya Drug Company, said, “Himalaya is the most preferred and loved brand in the facewash Category. Consumers trust Himalaya for their face wash needs. It is our responsibility to build awareness around face care and advocate correct solution for consumers’ benefit. The rapidly growing face wash category still has low penetration. 7 out of every 10 consumers in urban India unknowingly use soap for face cleansing. With pimple problem, an ordinary toilet soap can be harmful and should be avoided.”

     

    Conceptualised by Eighty-Two Point Five Communications, the highlight of the TVC was to give enough reasons to the consumer using soap on pimple to switch to Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash to resolve their pimple-related problems.

     

    Added Ravikumar C, Senior Creative Directive, Eighty Two Point Five Communications:  “This time around, as part of recruiting new users into the category, we had to make the consumers aware of the ineffectiveness of an ordinary toilet soap when it comes to pimples. We had to communicate a functional message while retaining the brand story of two sisters, their innocence, care, and warmth. Our creative solution was simple, and added one more character to this mix, a portrait. The story revolves around a portrait of the younger sister drawn by the elder one. When one uses the portrait to showcase her problem of pimples, the other provides the solution through it without losing the innocence, simplicity, care, and warmth.”
