What worked in the Campaign:

After analyzing the complete case study of the social media campaign #DailyDillagi, here are the following key points which we felt worked very well for the campaign.

  • The core concept of the campaign was to drive awareness for the daily recharge by Tata Sky in order to capture the rural areas where people complained that why should they pay when they have no electricity for half of the week. This was successfully conveyed through the series of videos.
  • The new art of storytelling (creating mini-clips for the video) successfully engaged the audience more than what the complete video once uploaded could have done.
  • The contests and video blogs of the cast create a buzz and convinced people to stay connected and engage themselves with the campaign.
