New Delhi: Home appliances and consumer electronics major Haier has launched a series of new TVCs titled ‘Perform Big, Silently’ featuring notable women achievers who pushed boundaries to make a mark.
The new TVCs feature Indian mountain climber Dr Arunima Sinha, India’s first woman commando trainer Dr Seema Rao, Indian Female Chess Grandmaster Harika Dronavalli, and female mountain biker Anissa Lamare. The campaign celebrates the power of being a silent performer and gives a peek into the challenges, conviction, and strength of each of the woman achievers.
An extension to its ‘Silent Performers’ campaign, the new TVCs acknowledges the determination and efforts of Indian women achievers and athletes who continue to ‘Perform Big, Silently,’ letting their work speak for everything and have made India proud at the global stage with their triumphs.
Haier Appliances India senior VP sales & marketing NS Satish said, “Our latest campaign takes another leap towards our efforts to recognise the success of Indian women. Striving silently in their respective fields they have made our nation proud and our campaign lauds their accomplishments. Similarly, our new range of washing machines champions performance in the background without making any noise. Haier salutes the spirit and achievements of these performers who made it big without making noise.”
The campaign gives center stage to women achievers and highlights how they have pushed boundaries to bring pride to India on an international platform. Their commitment and hard work coincide with Haier’s philosophy of ‘Inspired Living,’ said the brand.
The TVC created in collaboration with Famous Innovations will premiere across all leading national and regional TV channels. For a wider reach, the TVC will be aired in Hindi and English.
Famous Innovation founder and CCO Raj Kamble said, “The consumer durables category is cluttered with celebrity-driven communication, relying on Bollywood and Cricket’s fame to sell products. However, we believe that the Indian consumer has been ready to move forward with new idols – people who perform big, silently. That’s why we are celebrating personalities from various fields like mountain climbing, combat training, chess, and downhill mountain biking.”
This is the second series of TVCs launched by Haier under the larger campaign theme of ‘Silent Performers,’ first introduced by the brand in 2019 with India’s ace sportswomen – Dipa Karmakar, Hima Das, and Simranjit Kaur. The campaign is dedicated to highlighting Haier’s latest ‘Super Drum’ series of front-load fully automatic washing machines which are designed to function super silently.
Shooting down the notion that sustainability and business profitability cannot go hand-in-hand, Godrej Group’s Ram Vaidyanathan pointed out that companies with stronger sustainable principles and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) practices have far out-performed the other companies on pure financial indicators as well. “80 per cent of sustainable initiatives are actually cost-saving, simply by being more efficient in the way we use resources,” he added, highlighting that from an investor’s perspective too it makes sense as strong ESG performance and processes are de-risking investments.
In addition to measuring the overall brand value, the report also evaluates the relative strength of brands, based on factors such as marketing investment, customer familiarity, staff satisfaction, and corporate reputation. According to these criteria, Ferrari (up 2 per cent to $9.2 billion) is the world’s strongest luxury & premium brand – and the second strongest brand in the world. The auto-maker reacted proactively to the pandemic, initially shutting down production and then reopening with a focus on creating a safe working environment. This both minimised disruption and reinforced the brand’s reputation as a high-quality and responsible firm, as per the report.
