MUMBAI: When Parle Agro decided to introduce a refreshingly new visual identity for its legendary mango drink ‘Frooti’, it vested the responsibility with Posterscope India for its Out-of-Home (OOH) communication.
The new Frooti campaign is designed to be impactful with bold graphics and vibrant colours, wherein the communications focus is entirely on the visuals of the new packs that are depicted to be larger-than-life.
The task put forth by the Parle Agro team to Posterscope India was to create a buzz about the brand’s new look and leave a lasting impression on the consumer’s mind such that it would support and boost its on-ground visibility.
Posterscope conceptualised and created an outdoor implementation strategy for Frooti that was nothing less than omnipresent. It delivered month-long visibility to the brand across 100+ markets pan India to address the objective of establishing the product as a leader and as the voice of authority in its category. The campaign was not just high impact, juxtaposed against sustained visibility, but also exhibited high cost efficiency.
Using its novel research study - Outdoor Consumer Survey (OCS), Posterscope conducted an analysis to target consumers wherein it identified the most relevant touch-points and high footfall locations across market segments. Further, with the help of its proprietary 'Prism' suite of tools, Posterscope created a judicious mix of impact, reach, frequency and intrigue by using a combination of large and small format media units.
Meticulous planning was undertaken for appropriate media selection and media placement at key high traffic locations, arterial roads, congregation points, product consumption locations, hangout places and transit places. While the largeness was provided through billboards, the differentiation was created by the right kind of media mix that encapsulated more than 20 different outdoor media formats including street furniture and transit media.
To stand out and create differentiation in the cluttered metro markets, Posterscope created media clusters. For this, a combination of multiple media touch points were rolled-out within close proximity to create ‘The Frooti Life Zone’.
The challenge for the Posterscope team was to get the campaign live almost simultaneously across a humungous geographical spread of metros, state capitals, tier 1 and tier 2 towns, tourist locations and national highways.
Additionally, there were multiple creatives manifesting “The Frooti Life” that had to be used prudently to offer visual freshness to the campaign. It required extensive implementation, planning and flawless coordination from the Posterscope teams across regions to achieve this herculean task.
Parle Agro JMD and CMO Nadia Chauhan said, “We are employing a differentiated marketing strategy with the entire brand revamp and new positioning for Frooti. With our new campaign, we want to make the brand relevant and appealing to consumers across generations and build higher aspirational values around it.”
Posterscope APAC regional director Haresh Nayak added, “We are glad to be associated with the brand-revamping exercise of Frooti ensuring the creating of high impact visibility with the wide spread outdoor campaign.”
Consequent to the task undertaken, the result was an extremely visible outdoor media campaign that was delivered seamlessly across 100+ markets and entailing nearly 2000 media units - all implemented in record time.
