    ‘Stop looking at me,’ says HP Spectre’s OOH campaign

    MUMBAI: Fresh ways herald new products. To inform and educate the customers about HP’s new laptop range Spectre that boasts of being the thinnest laptop, the brand has executed an OOH Campaign in three key cities — Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Bangalore. Milestone Brandcom is its OOH partner in the initiative. In line with the product proposition, out of home space has also been reinvented by taking large and impactful media in the three metros.

    Milestone Brandcom senior VP Ravi Ambrose commented saying, “The core idea behind the campaign was not just to be visible or convey the message to the core TG (target group) but also to be visible with an impact. That was the starting point. We put some serious energy in terms of identifying the sites. Plus, the messaging is also not the same all across. We have contextually changed the message to be able to engage the TG more meaningfully and not just strike a one-way conversation with a mere product messaging. e.g. “Stop Looking at me or you will miss your plane’ at the airport and ‘Stop looking at me or you will be late’ on the road”.

    In Gurgaon, the Rapid Metro train has been wrapped with HP Spectre branding which looks ravishing. Cluster hoardings have been put up to make it an impactful campaign. High Impact Airport media has also been taken to cater to the affluent.

    The powerful creative on all the impact media taken across the board is grabbing more and more eyeballs each day. The campaign has got great feedback. The HP campaign has taken OOH to a new standard of execution.
