  • Liqvd Asia swallows Adlift in digital marketing power play

    Liqvd Asia swallows Adlift in digital marketing power play

    MUMBAI: Two digital marketing outfits have decided that in the cutthroat world of online advertising, it’s better to bed down together than battle it out alone. Liqvd Asia, a digital-first advertising agency, has snapped up Adlift, a performance marketing and SEO specialist, in a move that promises to shake up the industry’s established order.

    The tie-up, announced on 20 March, creates a full-service digital powerhouse that marries Liqvd Asia’s creative chops with Adlift’s data-driven prowess. The combined entity aims to offer clients the holy grail of marketing: campaigns that not only look pretty but actually deliver the goods.

    Founded in 2013, Liqvd Asia has made its name flogging digital branding and content campaigns. By acquiring Adlift, which has been pushing data-driven performance marketing since 2009, the agency is clearly gunning for a bigger slice of the digital marketing pie.

    Liqvd Asia founder &  managing director Arnab Mitra couldn’t resist a bit of corporate speak when explaining the deal: “This acquisition marks a natural evolution in our journey to create an end-to-end marketing powerhouse that blends storytelling with performance at scale.” Strip away the jargon and the message is clear: they want to be the biggest and the best.

    Adlift co-founder &  chief executive Prashant Puri was equally bullish about the union: “This acquisition is not just about expansion—it’s about setting new benchmarks in digital marketing innovation.” Translation: we’re coming for everyone else’s lunch.

    With Adlift’s team staying put under a joint leadership framework, the merger should avoid the usual corporate bedlam that follows such deals. The companies are betting that their combined financial muscle will allow them to splash the cash on fancy AI platforms and automation technologies.

    Liqvd Asia, which already has studios in Mumbai, Gurgaon, Bengaluru and Kolkata, has made no secret of its global ambitions. The firm has its sights set on the US, Gulf states, Asia-Pacific and Europe, with Adlift’s international connections providing a ready-made launchpad.

    Adlift brings to the table a team of over 200 digital experts and relationships with more than 250 blue-chip clients, including Walmart, Shopify and HDFC Bank. The agency has built its reputation on the back of search engine optimisation, paid media and content marketing—all areas where Liqvd Asia was looking to beef up its offerings.

    If the two agencies can successfully merge their strengths without stepping on each other’s toes, they might just create the digital marketing juggernaut they’re promising. But as many a corporate marriage has shown, the path from honeymoon to happily ever after is often strewn with unexpected obstacles.

  • Mansion House twists Father’s Day narrative with campaign ‘The Warm Embrace of Fatherhood’

    Mansion House twists Father’s Day narrative with campaign ‘The Warm Embrace of Fatherhood’

    Mumbai: In a world where fatherhood knows no bounds, Mansion House, a flagship brand under Tilaknagar Industries, has unveiled a profoundly moving campaign this Father’s Day titled ‘The Warm Embrace of Fatherhood’ to celebrate the dad in every man. The campaign honours the selfless love and responsibility that defines fatherhood, transcending biological ties.

    Fatherhood, as beautifully portrayed in the campaign, can be pictured in various forms – be it nurturing children in the most selfless way or caring for pets even when you are away. It celebrates the universal love shared by fathers everywhere, embodying the very essence of that warmth and bond. It captures heartwarming moments that illustrate the everyday sacrifices and joys shared between a father and his cherished companion. ‘A Warm Welcome,’ the brand proposition of Mansion House, is reflected as a strong sentiment that echoes throughout this campaign.

    Conceptualised by the Tilaknagar Industries’ Digital Marketing Agency LIQVD ASIA, the campaign artfully captures the essence of paternal love through a poignant narrative that unveils the touching story of a father and his fur baby, and the heartfelt connection they share.  

    The campaign video is brought to life by Pumpkin Production which is not only visually compelling but also emotionally relevant.

    Commenting on the campaign, Tilaknagar Industries CMO  Ahmed Rahimtoola   said, “On this momentous occasion of Father’s Day, we are proud to honour all fathers – those who have shaped us with love and guidance. Whether it’s a human dad or a pet parent, this Father’s Day, we aim to celebrate all aspects of fatherhood and the unconditional bond and nurturing spirit that goes beyond biological bonds. In its true spirit, the campaign celebrates the joy and warmth of homecoming, inspired by the hospitality and love in our brand proposition “A warm Welcome”. The campaign, therefore, is a heartfelt tribute to all fathers for going beyond their roles, every single day.

    LIQVD ASIA head of creatives Sunil Gangras added, “At LIQVD ASIA, our constant endeavor is to push the boundaries of creativity and turn new age insights into meaningful stories. The idea of fatherhood has changed considerably in the last decade and this Father’s Day we wanted to build relevance in our approach for this topical initiative from Mansion House. So, we came up with a touchingly honest story that celebrates the warmth between a father and his fur baby, reflecting the brand DNA of ‘A Warm Welcome’ with a strong message about ties beyond blood that strikes a chord almost instantly. After all, being a pet parent is a full-time job too and it needs equal if not more emotional investment. What really hit home was having an entire team of pet parents to bring this story to life.”

    This DVC campaign is set to captivate audiences across digital platforms and has been conceptualised and produced in multiple regional languages like Malayalam, Kannada and Telugu, apart from English of course, keeping in mind the target markets for the brand. Thus, inspiring each and every one to fully embrace and cherish the enduring spirit of fatherhood.

    BOBCARD Ltd unveils #AurKyaChahiye campaign

    Mumbai: BOBCARD Ltd (formerly known as BOB Financial Solutions Limited), a leading subsidiary of Bank of Baroda, unveils #AurKyaChahiye campaign, showcasing the smooth integration of RuPay BOBCARD with UPI, enhancing customer experience and providing unparalleled convenience for everyday digital transactions and instant access to credit.

    The campaign aims to raise awareness among consumers about the game-changing capabilities of RuPay BOBCARD on the UPI platform, enabling users to access their credit cards with unprecedented ease. Through a humorous yet relatable narrative featuring an auto-rickshaw driver and a passenger, the campaign illustrates the benefits of linking credit cards to UPI, emphasizing convenience and innovation in digital payments.

    In a bustling railway station setting, the campaign’s protagonist, an auto-rickshaw driver, witnesses the frustration caused by traditional payment methods. However, the mood shifts when he introduces the simplicity of UPI-linked credit cards to the passenger. The subsequent scenes showcase the passenger seamlessly using the service with a tagline “Galat time mein out of balance mat ho jaye, Aaj hi UPI pe RuPay BOBCARD apnaye #AurKyaChahiye”, ultimately empowering her with the ability to transact without worrying about running out of cash or balance even for small ticket size payments.

    BOBCARD Ltd deputy managing director Ravindra Rai M, commented on the launch, stating, “In recent years, UPI payments have experienced significant growth, yet credit card users have been deprived of the advantages of UPI transactions. The recent integration of RuPay credit cards onto the UPI platform by RBI and NPCI has effectively filled this void. BOBCARD stands out as an early adopter of this regulatory initiative, ensuring our customers never worry about running out of funds, even for small day-to-day transactions, with unparalleled ease and speed.”

    He continued, “From corner Kirana shops to large supermarkets, UPI payments have become a favorite among all. They’re fast, effortless, and eliminate the need for cash – making them the ideal choice for your busy lifestyle. With the introduction of RuPay Credit Cards on the UPI platform, consumers now enjoy enhanced convenience and instant credit availability that led to greater customer satisfaction. Our #AurKyaChahiye campaign strives to educate users about the perks of UPI-linked credit cards through real-life scenarios portrayed in a series of digital films. This initiative seeks to accelerate the adoption of digital payments, supporting our vision of a cashless economy.”

    The campaign targets the Indian smartphone users to guide them on the ease of using credit card on UPI through various use cases where credit card can be used instead of cash or any other payment mode for quick and hassle-free transactions.

    “In our journey of transformation, we wanted every experience with BOBCARD to be reimagined like never before. The ability to scan and pay through UPI with your RuPay BOBCARD is one such step to forge meaningful connections with our audience and stay ahead of the curve. So, it was a strategic move to communicate about this revolutionary feature in the modern Indian banking system, in the language that most Indians emotionally associate with – Bollywood. We reimagined and recreated some iconic scenes from the B-Town to drive ‘Top of the mind’ recall and reaffirm our commitment to stay relevant”, said Liqvd Asia creative services head Sunil Gangras.
