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.

    Tilt Brand Solutions ties up with L.A based Ryde Network

    MUMBAI: Having launched operations just under 3 months ago, Tilt Brand Solutions is striking yet another collaboration in the dynamic and ever evolving content space. Close on the heels of announcing its creative and operational collaboration with content creation and production house, Supari Studios, Tilt has now formally partnered with social media mavericks Ryde Network.

    Based out of Los Angeles, Ryde Network is the largest fashion, life-style and travel network on Instagram with over 30 channels and an audience of over 11M. Ryde Network has been working with top brands such as Wrangler, Dior and Polaroid helping them connect and transact directly with its audience.

    Says Rajiv Chatterjee, Chief Business Officer, Tilt Brand Solutions “Brands today have an incredible opportunity to market themselves on the principle of transference of trust, rather than a sales pitch. With our partnership with Ryde Network, we are poised to offer bespoke social media marketing solutions to brand owners  who wish to make an impression through an authentic peer to peer network of global content creators. Richard and his entire team at Ryde are committed to bringing world class content solutions for brands on Social Media as it becomes perhaps the most impactful and engaging way for brands to communicate and commercially transact with their audiences”.

    Richard D’ Alessio, Founder, Ryde Network says – “What makes us different is that we aren’t an influencer network, and we aren’t selling influencer marketing. What we offer is something more akin to TV and print which is direct access to a  premium network of inspirational channels that are run by the biggest tastemakers on the planet. We work directly with brand owners to create artful stories and visual executions that trigger emotions, engage people, and drive direct to consumer on platform sales. Our immediate task is of course to grow the network in India, while we continue to expand our already significant footprint globally.”

He has consistently been a visionary of short form storytelling, audience insights and consumer behaviour, helping brands transcend borders and build loyalty.

  • Tilt Brand Solutions partners with Supari Studios to enhance content capabilities

    Tilt Brand Solutions partners with Supari Studios to enhance content capabilities

    MUMBAI: Tilt Brand Solutions was launched in September 2018 by Joseph (Joe) George, former Group Chairman and CEO of MullenLowe Lintas, as a strategic and creative enterprise that offers Consulting, Communication and Content services for brands and businesses. Complementing Tilt’s strategic philosophy of “Full-Brained Thinking” is its creative philosophy of “One Brand. Many Stories” – built around its belief that brands today need to tell many stories to be able to breathe and belong in people’s consciousness.

    Tilt Brand Solutions has thus partnered with Supari Studios. This partnership will see both come together to jointly develop and produce video content which will help brands tell their stories. All their stories.

    In the past few years, Supari Studios has witnessed tremendous success in developing and producing a portfolio of branded content properties that have garnered over 200 million views on YouTube alone, setting benchmarks that reflect the increasing popularity of online video content consumption in the country. Internationally acclaimed, and the recipient of several prestigious awards, Supari Studios has worked closely and consistently with brands such as Red Bull, Google, Estee Lauder, YouTube, Asian Paints, Twitter and Dolby among others.

    Speaking on the partnership, Joseph George, Founder Chairman and MD, Tilt Brand Solutions says, “With the democratization of data and bandwidth, more Indians are consuming more videos on many more screens. We look at this as a vibrant and enabling ecosystem which will allow us to deliver platform-relevant content, that will help brands better connect with its consumers across media platforms. We have sensed a reciprocity of belief and purpose in all our meetings with Advait and his team; and we are convinced, that collaborating with Supari’s exciting and talented folks will result in some path-breaking work for brands.”

    Adds Advait Gupt, Co-Founder, Supari Studios “The way we consume content has evolved dramatically in the past 5 years. We’ve moved from a prime time, television viewing experience to an anytime, anywhere, video-on-demand, mobile viewing experience. Today we decide our own prime time. Over the past 6 years at Supari Studios, we’ve been firmly focused on building differentiated content that connects with this discerning audience and we see Joe and the entire team at Tilt deeply aligned to this ideology. We’re excited to work with such a diverse and experienced team and look forward to create content that functions at the intersection of what value brands offer and what their audiences love.”

  • Ex MullenLowe Lintas’ Joseph George ‘Tilt-ing’ the creative agency model

    Ex MullenLowe Lintas’ Joseph George ‘Tilt-ing’ the creative agency model

    MUMBAI: A 150-year experienced team from across advertising, marketing, content, consumer advocacy, data analytics, storytelling, studio production, digital, media, qualitative research, behavioural science and video analytics have come together to offer consulting, communication, content and video production services for brands and businesses under the name Tilt Brand Solutions.

    Tilt Brand Solutions chairman and MD Joseph George says, “The context in which brands operate is everything. When that changes, everything about the brand outreach needs to change. What, where and how consumers buy, and what, where and how they consume content, have all changed. These changes cannot be responded to, by shoe-horning existing models into new structures. They need to be addressed by structuring a new; not re-structuring an old. Ergo Tilt.” 

    Tilt believes that brand and communication planning today is mostly “right brained”, predicated primarily on culture, attitudes and beliefs. And while these will continue to remain critical, the plethora of actual behavioural and consumption data available today cannot be ignored.

    Joseph opines, “Data analytics today sits only in digital, media or analytics agencies. At Tilt though, composite teams of left and right-brained strategists evaluate brand and behavioural data in human and cultural contexts and vice versa. Specialists in brand management, consumer behaviour, digital and media, data analytics, video analytics and communication planning work together to provide what we at Tilt call, full brained thinking.”

    Democratisation of data and proliferation of screens of all sizes, have resulted in Indians consuming more videos than ever before; contributing 50 to 70 per cent of all IP traffic and 75 per cent of advertising spends. Tilt believes thus, that getting right the conceptualisation and production of advertising and content in the video format, has become critical.

    Explains Joe, “Tilt’s creative philosophy of One Brand, Many Stories is built on the belief, that brands have, and need to tell many stories. More the stories, the more the brand begins to breathe and belong in people’s consciousness. The assumption that one video asset will work across audiences, objectives and platforms is flawed. Content creation and production needs to be tailored to each platform and experience across all forms of video-based advertising and content – from commercials to long, short and very short format video content.”

    The leadership team, Shriram Iyer chief creative and content officer, Srikanth Sarathy chief operating officer, Rajiv Chatterjee chief business officer and soon to join Kedar Teny as chief strategy officer is confident that Tilt’s strategy-story-studio offering, driven by its twin philosophies of full-brained thinking and one brand, many stories could well serve as proof of concept for brand owners and creative enterprises who are seeking to influence, engage and entertain consumers of today.

    The agency wants to sit in the union set of consulting, communication, content and video production; drawing inputs however, from the intersection set of brand building, communication planning, storytelling, analytics, media & digital strategy, behavioral science and production management.

    Joseph further adds, “We had to look at talent with specific experience and skills; and so, our starting team couldn’t be more diverse from each other, and different from norm in terms of careers and academics – Airtel, Culture Machine, Disney, Franklin Templeton, Hindustan Unilever Ltd, IIT, Infosys, ISRO, Leo Burnett, Lintas, London School of Economics, McDonald’s, Mediacom, NID, Omnicom Media, PWC, Sony Sports, Star TV and The Viral Fever.”
