    ShopClues’ exclusive launch of Sunday Flea Market on 9XM

    MUMBAI: ShopClues makes a grand move towards Television through its recent tie-up with India’s leading Bollywood Music Channel, 9XM. The agenda is to market its best-selling property and to rekindle the true essence of a Flea Market on TV, via unique theme-based musical show titled ‘Shopclues.com presents Sunday Flea Market’. Airing every Sunday from 11 am to 1 pm, ‘Shopclues.com presents Sunday Flea Market’ proffers an exciting shopping experience to the tunes of Bollywood Chartbusters.

    The show rides on the popular concept of Online Flea Market pioneered by ShopClues, with the same name. Since inception, ShopClues’ Sunday Flea Market has been a real game changer in the Indian Ecommerce space. This merchandizing property curates a mix of Products Under Rs. 1000 to replicate the experience of a ‘Shani Bazaar’ or ‘Mangal Bazaar’, hence it is modelled to the frame of local neighbourhood bazaars. Featuring Unstructured Product Categories like Daily Utilities, Garden Needs, Kitchen Storage, Hardware, Electronics & Automotive Accessories etc., it caters to the needs of consumers of every age group.
    This prized proposition brings the serendipity of finding Unusual Products online such as a Skipping Rope or a Mosquito Killer Racket, which are often pursued in a local street market on a Sunday. The eagerness to explore and buy all the day-to-day utilities at home triggers the impulse shopping behaviour of consumers. Its Low Price Point coupled with Unit Quantity element propels merchants to sell such products at amazingly low prices. Tapping the curiosity and excitement of consumers, it brings the most Paisa-Vasool Deals to the table, every Sunday. This first-ever Online Flea Market is now streaming on TV to entice the large viewer base of 9XM.

    ‘Shopclues.com presents Sunday Flea Market’, is an anchor-based show where viewers get to watch the latest Bollywood songs along with introduction to the Aflatooni Products of Sunday Flea Market. Now, shoppers across India have another medium to access the Best Deals on almost everything they need in their daily life.

    Speaking about the association ShopClues marketing AVP Nitin Agarwal said, “Sunday Flea Market has been one of the most successful merchandising propositions in the Indian e-commerce segment and now we bring this amazing offering on TV. Our consumers and viewers of 9XM can now enjoy a delightful cocktail of shopping and entertainment with ‘Shopclues.com presents Sunday Flea Market’. The partnership with 9XM is certainly going to be a mutually beneficial one as both brands are very popular and have a massive appeal.”

    9XM asks ‘Who is the Idiot’?

    MUMBAI: The on-going elections have caught the nation’s imagination like none other; be it the political parties themselves or the media which includes print, radio, television and digital.

     

     The latest to join the brigade is Bollywood music channel, 9XM, which has taken upon itself the onerous task of encouraging people to step out and vote. The channel has created a music video titled ‘Who is the Idiot’ in collaboration with Artist Aloud, Rapper BlaaZe, and Paul J, which urges viewers to wake up and cast their vote.

     

     ‘Who is the Idiot’ was launched on 9XM on 3 April and will be played across 9X music channels including 9X Tashan, 9X Jalwa, 9X Jhakaas and 9XO. “This is the way to talk to today’s youth- through music and dance. And that’s how we are educating them. We are playing the video every hour currently,” says 9XM content head Sunder Venketraman.

     

     The video shows a school annual day function, where kids are dressed up like politicians and elders are shown blind-folded. “We are not portraying any politician or political party in a negative way. The video is about being happy and enjoying the right to vote,” says Venketraman. “The idea was to show how, at times, we are so engrossed in our day-to-day work that we tend to take things that are of national importance, lightly. Our effort is to convey to our target group that there is a need to wake up and vote. We are urging the youth to take the elections seriously and take out time and vote.”

     

     To its credit, the video, choreographed by 9XM’s in-house creative team, features the channel’s lovable toon duo – Chhote and Bade. “9XM is a house of Chhote and Bade. At times, a message sent out by them is impactful and so, we had to use them in the video,” says Venketraman.

     

     The shooting was completed in one day. “But the pre-production took us almost 20 days and the post-production took five days. Since we were shooting with kids, we had to manage them well. Also, kids require a lot of attention. We were conscious about casting them,” informs Venketraman.

     

     ‘Who is the Idiot’ is also being promoted on YouTube, which has already got nearly 23,666 views. Apart from the main video currently being aired, eight 30-40 second videos have also been created. “The agenda is to wake up the youth. We are circulating the videos through Twitter, Google+, Facebook, WhatsApp, WeChat, BBM, Pinterest, Instagram and Vine.” Says 9XM SVP- Digital Vibha Gosher.

     

    Interestingly, the videos draw attention to unique characteristics of the now well-known names in politics in a humorous manner. “Through these videos, we are portraying the ordinary life of these politicians. So, like in one of the videos, we show a Sardar and how while he is trying to talk to everyone in the class, the teacher calls him and reprimands him, and so, he decides to stop talking. In another video, we show a kid who refuses to eat lunch, because he is fasting,” explains Gosher.

     

    How many youngsters will actually go out and vote is difficult to predict but 9XM deserves a thumbs up for the effort.
