  • Scripbox promotes tax saver plan through new campaign

    Scripbox promotes tax saver plan through new campaign

    MUMBAI: Scripbox has launched a new campaign promoting its tax saver plan, which with two scientifically selected ELSS mutual funds and a paperless sign-up process makes tax-saving easy, simple, and hassle-free on both web and app interfaces.

    Scripbox VP-marketing Manu Prasad said, “The last quarter of every financial year is when a lot of unnecessary atyachaar happens in the name of 80C. Our objective has been to simplify personal finance and help people make better choices for wealth creation. In the tax-saving context, the Scripbox Tax Saver Plan does it elegantly, and our partners at Tilt have produced an impactful campaign to communicate it. It combines insightful strategic thinking with an engaging and surprising storytelling narrative that is delivered in a fun and empathetic manner.”

    The campaign created by Tilt Brand Solutions comprises of online video, radio and office activation in key markets.

    Tilt Brand Solutions chief creative and content officer Shriram Iyer said, “This campaign should resonate with every one of us because I’m sure each one of us has been one of these avatars at one point or another in our lives; not surprising, therefore, that this campaign has gained so much traction in just 4 days.

  • Manforce Condoms raises the bar higher with the second edition of their hit campaign #ShutThePhoneUp

    Manforce Condoms raises the bar higher with the second edition of their hit campaign #ShutThePhoneUp

    MUMBAI: Last year, Manforce Condoms took the internet by storm with its campaign #ShutThePhoneUp. It was an extension of what the brand always stands for – safe sex. The campaign aimed at driving awareness about the risks associated with recording one’s private moments on the phone.

    In 2017, the campaign video showed how losing a phone can be a nightmare for a newly-married couple. This year, the brand continued the conversation by talking about how deleted data can be retrieved and jeopardize everything.

    The campaign’s first edition was driven and symbolized by the oath of putting a condom over the phone. It became a social movement that was supported by millions of Indians and became a topic of national debate. This year’s campaign execution caught fire right from the get-go. A blurred MMS of a couple making out was circulated among the masses with the communication, “this could have been you”, to reaffirm the possibilities of data retrieval and leakage. The audience were immediately awakened and understood the message with the video’s engagement crossing the 13M mark.

    Furthermore, the teaser established the premise for this year’s oath, which saw an even bigger response. Several users chose to take the oath to #ShutThePhoneUp by covering their face with their hand that read “this could’ve been me”.

    In addition to the oath, the brand with its initiative, facilitated the victims of voyeurism with a voice. They came forth and shared their experiences to warn couples from using their phones, while they are together.

    In addition to spreading awareness, the goal of the campaign was to offer a solution to people who have already used their phone for clicking images and recording videos. Manforce Condoms curated a page with all the information essential to #ResetItRight on their official website. Cashify, an online re-commerce platform supported the campaign. They directed their ground-force to confirm with the sellers that the phone is completely formatted and encrypted, before they collected it. It was all done to ensure that no data remains on the phone, to avoid further consequences of the data falling into the wrong hands.

    “People need to realize that apart from social networking, there is also a dark side to technology. Tools that are used to retrieve deleted data, can be used for unethical purposes, like retrieving compromising information. This information had to reach people. From circulating the MMS to encouraging people to take up the oath and then onto enabling them to #ResetItRight, we aimed at informing people that regardless of the safety tools, apps & mechanisms, their safety lies in their own hands and nowhere else. The center of it all was driving the main message of preventing people from shooting that MMS, and to #ShutThePhoneUp,” said Shradha Agarwal, COO & Co-Founder, Grapes Digital.

    Speaking on the occasion, Rajeev Juneja, CEO, Mankind Pharma, said, “We always strive at bringing about a social change and drive awareness towards ‘safe sex’. But the sexual experience is no more limited to physical intimacy – we can all become victims of voyeurism in some form or the other. It must be understood that the only way to stay safe from voyeurism is by not recording videos or sharing risqué images at all. The campaign needs to reach as many people as it can and for that we request the people of the country to come out in support and take the pledge to #ShutThePhoneUp.”

    Manforce Condoms, has once again been successful in highlighting the real issues and making people aware and more responsible with their campaign, #ShutThePhoneUp.

  • Bournvita Biscuits’ new campaign “No More Excuses” gives kids the right reason to smile

    Bournvita Biscuits’ new campaign “No More Excuses” gives kids the right reason to smile

    MUMBAI: Over the years, Bournvita Biscuits has become a favourite in the cookie category, successfully establishing itself as the “Subah ka biscuit” and a healthy partner to milk. Packed with ProHealth Vitamins and rich in the signature chocolaty taste, the brand is now taking this journey one step further by fostering progressive parenting, which has always been at the core of Bournvita’s communication. Their latest campaign ‘No More Excuses’ stems from real life insights when children resort to creative excuses to avoid eating anything that could be healthy.

    Sudhanshu Nagpal, Head – Biscuits Category, Mondelez India said, “Since its launch in 2016, Bournvita Biscuits has provided an effective choice of delicious snacking enriched with the wholesome goodness of Bournvita, the drink Indian consumers have trusted for decades. The latest campaign on Bournvita Biscuits appeals to all progressive mothers, who believe in collaborative parenting. Since mornings are always hustled, leaving barely any time for kids to consume the right foods, Bournvita Biscuits will help moms provide the right start to their day giving them “no more excuse” to skip the morning snack.”

    The TVC conceptualized by Ogilvy India begins with a mother bringing in a glass of milk to her son just before he leaves for school. To avoid this, the boy instantly comes up with a creative excuse. His mother, clearly familiar with her son’s antics, quickly reveals a plate with his favourite Bournvita Biscuits. Upon seeing this, the boy realizes what he has bartered away and immediately fixes the situation with another inventive excuse. As he grabs and relishes the yummy Bournvita Biscuits with a glass of milk, the mother is pleased that her son has started off his day with a healthy and delicious snack.

    “The campaign plays on the insight that kids are most innovative when they want to get out of something. One of the things all kids want to escape is a boring breakfast. The film is simple, relevant, charming and brings this insight to life.” said Harshad Rajadhyaksha & Kainaz Karmakar, Chief Creative Officers, Ogilvy India.

The music will surely make you take notice and smile. All this helped us weave a story that we're sure it will add shine to its viewers' lives.”
