    FabAlley launches new digital Campaign #IMeanBusiness

    MUMBAI: Homegrown western wear brand, FabAlley- that is by and for modern millennial multitasking women has launched a Fab new campaign to empower women in leadership. The digital campaign, #IMeanBusiness aims to move beyond soft talk and bring out the real picture of being a woman in position – what it takes to come out of one’s comfort zone, be responsible for that move, and owning the ups-and-downs of being in-charge.

    In the campaign, FabAlley has partnered with four self-standing women from diverse fields to talk about their professional journeys and what it takes to build and own their narratives every single day. Having ventured into entrepreneurship alongside her vocal art, Tanya Nambiar, singer & voice-over artist talks about how women don’t have to restrict themselves to one profession and dream. Upasna Dash, founder of Jajabor Brand Consultancy, talks about how research and preparation are the only keys to unlocking success and acing work. For Garima Avtar, professional rally car racer, it is about identifying your truest passion and, for Megha Agarwal, Corporate Chef, Summerhouse Café and Auro Kitchen & Bar, knowing that you must get work done, no matter what the odds, is what spells leadership. The campaign is about real talk with women who walk the talk, inspiring audiences to believe in their own journeys and proclaim that they mean business.

    Commenting on the campaign, FabAlley  Co-Founders Tanvi Malik and Shivani Poddar share, “Being entrepreneurs who started from scratch, we know and believe that being a boss woman goes beyond honeyed “women-can-run-the-show” conversations. It is not just making that one move, it is about owning that move and the journey that follows, keeping yourself on top of the game while battling bad days. This campaign is an attempt to bring some realness to the idea of being a woman with power, and through our conversation with these feisty boss ladies, we endeavour to inspire other women to take on their dreams.”

    The campaign also launches the brand’s power-dressing line that aims to empower women with its functional and fashionable styles. Dismissing the strict, corporate connotations, FabAlley’s power suiting line this year leads the way for versatility with stylish separates that can be worn in an endless amount of ways. Think belted blazers that add form to a boxy look, 80’s inspired flared trousers and culottes to work from boardroom to bar, and tuxedo dresses that are fierce yet feminine. The capsule collection is priced between Rs.1,500-Rs.3,400.

  • Licious launches their quirky new digital campaign #NoFreeKaMaal

    Licious launches their quirky new digital campaign #NoFreeKaMaal

    MUMBAI: Building on the brand’s mission of helping their customers eat world class fresh meats and seafood, Licious, is launching their new brand campaign called #NoFreeKaMaal. Keeping up with their category-first promise, Licious is the first and the only brand in this category to explore visual storytelling to talk about the prevailing customer pain points of quality, hygiene, freshness and convenience when it comes to purchasing meat and seafood, that the brand has successfully solved since inception.

    Targeted specifically at Mumbai and Pune markets, where the brand started operation about 3 months ago, the three-film series talks about the three ‘freebies’ that we often tend to pick up from local meat and fish markets- unwanted odour, vermin and the nuisance caused by strays. Featuring actor Namit Das, the films effectively blends humor with everyday life situations to make a strong point about these issues.

    Commenting on the strategic thought behind the campaign, Vanda Ferrao, Head-Marketing, Licious, says “If you have ever made a trip to an Indian meat and fish market, you would be familiar with the squalor and chaos that is has to offer. What’s interesting to note is that the customer takes back a bit of that squalor with him along with his purchase, sometimes unknowingly! Along with the meat or fish, the butcher/fisherman also packs a few freebies- a bit of stench and buzzing flies that often has the stray dog at the market following you all the way home! Getting your hands on some good quality meat should not be this difficult. Our #NoFreeKaMaal campaign is a quirky take on this everyday issue. The underlined message upholds the brand’s core functional benefit, which is our offering of an unmatched range of meat and meat products, delivered at your doorstep sans all the free ka maal!”

    The campaign draws inspiration from Licious’ in-depth customer research and is conceptualized in-house by the brand team. The first of this three-film advertisement series goes on air on 18th June 2019. All the films will be hosted at and promoted through the brand’s social media channels.

  • OkCupid Launches First Digital Campaign in India #SubstanceOverSelfies to Celebrate You and Your Personality

    OkCupid Launches First Digital Campaign in India #SubstanceOverSelfies to Celebrate You and Your Personality

    MUMBAI: They say that ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’ but does that hold true for dating? While selfies are all the trend right now, and seemingly here to stay, there is very little that they convey about one's personality, character and nature. On dating platforms particularly, selfies have taken a significant amount of mindspace and it is difficult to sift out the ‘right’ matches over photogenic ones. As a dating platform that focuses on your personality and not just appearance, OkCupid truly believes that people should be matched on the basis of shared interests, values, quirks and deal-breakers to create connections of substance. Taking this forward, the app launched its first digital campaign titled #SubstanceOverSelfies, which celebrates your story and not just a reflection of your phone’s front camera. The campaign went live in mid-December 2018 with over 100 leading influencers sharing their ‘substance selfies’ and campaign messaging, driving home the exact thought. Users followed in their footsteps with posts of their own, generating over a million impressions and an almost 20% engagement rate.

    The idea behind the campaign is to redefine the way you showcase yourself to the world. Influencers have represented themselves through a passion, interest or hobby that they believe defines them and communicates who they are. This has been beautifully depicted in several photos as participants have hidden their faces behind objects that represent their passions to convey that they are more than what meets the eye, they are more than just a selfie. It could be anything from a sport, book, camera, art or food. Afterall, when it comes to love and dating, it is always better to #MatchOnWhatMatters.

    Melissa Hobley, CMO, OkCupid says, “On most online dating platforms, your profile picture is your identity and the first thing a potential partner sees. At OkCupid though it’s about showing the substance and the depth of the person. For example, we don’t let you set up your profile with two clicks, we don’t let you swipe on only a picture and we don’t let you have this super-fast, exposable experience.  We help you tell your story and allow you to access stories of others to make meaningful connections. Through #SubstanceOverSelfies, we take that core belief outside the app, to encourage our users to make connections based on substance rather than just nice selfies.”

    Samsung celebrates mother-daughter bond in new TVC on digital inverter refrigerators

    MUMBAI: Samsung India has launched a digital campaign showcasing its new Digital Inverter Refrigerators through a heart-warming story of the relationship between a mother and a daughter.

    Conceptualised by Cheil, the campaign film, which shows a modern, young, evolved working woman gifting her mother a refrigerator that runs on both inverter and solar power for a better, improved and hassle-free life, has gone viral with over 50 million views on YouTube in the first 20 days of its launch.

    “This heart-warming campaign shows the strong bond between a mother and daughter. The campaign showcases the brand ethos of Samsung of caring about consumers at every step and bringing in innovative technologies to solve real life problems. Through this emotional story, we wanted to communicate how our new refrigerator line runs non-stop on the home inverter, making life better for a modern young Indian women. The campaign crossing 50 million views on YouTube in India is a testimony of consumer love and trust in brand Samsung,” said Mr. Ranjivjit Singh, Chief Marketing Officer, Samsung India.

    In the film, the mother is seen entering the daughter’s house while she is away at work. The mother brings with herself kheer that she has prepared lovingly for her daughter. She keeps it in her daughter’s fridge for her to enjoy when she is back from work. Just as she is leaving, there is a power cut. When the daughter returns home the power outage is still there but she is elated to see the kheer in the fridge. She calls her mother to appreciate her love but the mother is concerned that the kheer might have gone bad because of the long power cut. It is here that the daughter tells her not to worry because her new refrigerator even works on the home inverter.

    The 60-second film focuses on a real life situation, of the difficulty faced by individuals when food gets spoilt due to power cuts during summer months. The film captures a young working woman in conversation with her mother that touches hearts with different emotions of joy, love and care.

    The end of the film shows the daughter buying a similar refrigerator for her mother, hoping that the refrigerator takes care of her mother like her mother takes care of her.

    “Samsung is a brand that stands for innovation. The task at hand was to show how this offering of a refrigerator that runs on an inverter can make a world of a difference in the consumers’ life, in a very real way. This film is crafted in a way that makes the viewer feel that this is a situation straight out of their lives. The narrative beautifully connects the ad to its viewers and we are seeing a lot of positive response to the campaign. We hope to garner more brand love through this emotional campaign,” said Mr. Aneesh Jaisinghani, Executive Creative Director, Cheil India.

    Need a break from shopping? Meeting a long lost friend? Celebrating a good exam result? Dealing with a break up? Sympathising with a friend who has broken up? Want to blow the first-ever paycheck? There’s a McCafé for that, and more.

    The new film, that will be launched on digital and social channels, uses chalk animations cleverly interspersed with food and beverages from the McCafé menu. A fun, catchy song the film also lends itself to the film. Apart from digital, the campaign will also have touchpoints on social media, radio and in-store.

The brand extension offers an assortment of over 30 beverages ranging from handmade specialty coffees and iced coffees to smoothies, iced splash beverages and share shakes. Catering to everyone alike, McCafé stays true to brand McDonald’s core value: of celebrating life’s moments over great food and beverages, however big or small. The new campaign has been conceptualized and executed by Leo Burnett India.

    McDonald’s India SVP – strategy, innovation & capability Seema Arora Nambiar  said, “Since the launch of McCafé in 2013, we have seen tremendous growth and received an overwhelming response from our existing customers. As a brand extension, McCafé offers great handmade coffees and beverages that connect with the consumer need for having more options with their food. It adds a new segment of customers who have higher affinity for premium coffee or the other specialized beverages that we serve.”

    Leo Burnett South Asia chief creative officer Rajdeepak Das said, “McDonald’s has always been a happy, joyful brand, and McCafé is the perfect extension of this intrinsic happiness. People come to McCafé to celebrate everything going on in their lives, over a beverage – highs and lows, love, romance, friendship, reunions. Every item on the McCafe menu means something different to each person, and has a story. The execution of the film also weaves this thought in beautifully. To me, this is HumanKind work that makes viewers feel a strong emotion; happiness, in this case.”
