Entry Name (Campaign) : Black is my Favorite Colouru
In Fabric Conditioner category Softouch disrupted launching differentiated sensorial Black variant- power of French perfume fragrance to clothes while category leader provided basic fresh fragrance. Challenge in Core market Tamil Nadu was Misattribution of brand name as “Black Comfort”. There was a clear need to establish Softouch brand name Recall. Tamil Nadu has a strong cultural association of Pride with the color black. They celebrate black in different forms. To maximize cultural relevance, we integrated a very popular iconic 90’s Tamil song ‘Karruppu thaan enakku pidicha colour’ which means Black is my favourite colour. Audio rights were purchased & lyrics have all been tweaked to benefits of using Softouch Black & NOSTALGIC JINGLE Created for brand recall. This approach leverages famous song- riding the nostalgia wave & land our message with a strong cultural context thus striking an emotional chord with Tamil audience done through Multi-Influencers.
