task-bob-new

TASKBOB, the Startup

TASKBOB is a hyper-local home service provider functioning out of Mumbai. Their name is an inspiration and ode to the 90s cartoon character “Bob, The Builder” who helped others by fixing their home requirements. Whether you need a cleaning maid or a chauffeur, a plumber or an electrician, TASKBOB is sure to send one trusted help at the stipulated hour.

TASKBOB concentrates on the three most hapless points for the customers – delays, poor quality and lack of price transparency. The ‘startup’ aims to streamline the whole process; right from locating a serviceman to guaranteeing the service and your safety via a mobile app. TASKBOB only sends personnel after their thorough background checks, so you can relax.

Thus, you are guaranteed high-quality on-demand service at scheduled time.

TASKBOB – the need for advertising

TASKBOB launched its services from Powai. After its success, TASKBOB wanted to spread its wings in Mumbai. Its expansion plans could only be buoyed with a strong advertising campaign that would write its name across the Mumbai horizon.

TASKBOB & releaseMyAd

Being a startup itself, releaseMyAd discerned requirements of TASKBOB easily. This understanding coupled with our experience in working with other start-ups led us to win the race for the TASKBOB account.

But there was a catch with TASKBOB. They expected the ad to attract more people like cleaners, drivers, cleaning maids etc. to connect with them as well as customers. Basically, they wanted to notch the demand and supply side both with this one ad campaign.

mopping-1The Target

Our primary target consisted of people of Mumbai who needed quality services for home requirements. TASKBOB as an organisation looked forward to replacing the way people got their plumbers, electricians, and other repairmen. They also supplied maids and drivers. We identified soon that TASKBOB catered to people who were tech-savvy. Thus, we decided on the working class people in the age group 20 to 60.

Our main target were bachelors living alone who had no time for cleaning and homemakers who were harassed with the infrequent ‘kamwali-bais’ as the customers. Also, we tried to get as many skilled labourers to join us.

Choice of Media

As we were trying to reach a sizeable chunk of the population, especially homemakers and bachelors and people with low income, we picked up radio ads for Mumbai ad campaign of TASKBOB. Our choice was based on the following

  • Radio is cheap as it requires no subscription amount to enjoy it. Also, with radios being a part of smartphones their availability has increased.
  • Radio has an omnipresent quality to it. There is no escape from a nearby radio station playing.
  • The people we were looking to target especially on the supply side were more prone to using radios while working.
  • Also, homemakers and bachelors are known to spend quite some time on flitting across each station.

The releaseMyAd Strategy

Once we had TASKBOB onboard our experts began a thorough research of the Mumbai airwaves. We picked the following radio stations for our purpose:

  •         Big FM
  •         Fever FM
  •         Radio City
  •         Radio Mirchi
  •         Red FM, as most of our targets tune in these stations of Mumbai.

The Ad Creative

We got a pleasing ad made for TASKBOB that invited skilled labour to associate with the company, promising them, decent payments and respectful careers. On the other hand, this creative also cited the benefits of hiring repairmen and helpers from TASKBOB. The ad was made in Hindi so as to reach the most number of people.

Media Plan

We began our ad campaign with RADIO CITY in June. We played the ad for 9 days at a stretch and with increasing frequency. Our 10 seconds ad was played for twice daily in the first four days and then for 3 days we played the ads four times daily. In the last two days, we played the ad 6 times daily.

In July, we began a more aggressive campaign employing all the other radio stations chosen for the purpose. On BIG FM, we played ads for 17 days, 10 times daily. FEVER FM and RED FM were not far behind with ads being played for 15 days. RADIO MIRCHI had a slightly longer run with 20 days of advertising.

Our almost month-long ad campaign encompassing June and July soon gave positive results to TASKBOB.

Impact on TASKBOB

TASKBOB soon reported us about the record number of skilled people wanting to join their workforce. Also, they started getting more order confirmations and leads. Their percentage of services sold increased substantially.

Swiggy uses newspaper and radio ads to spread its essence

Swiggy-Best

Swiggy’s Profile

Online food ordering start-up Swiggy is based in Bengaluru, but caters to an audience that spans top Indian cities, such as Gurgaon, Mumbai, Pune, Kolkata, Hyderabad, and Chennai, in addition to Bengaluru. What sets Swiggy apart from other food delivery startups is that they employ their own personnel when it comes to delivery. This eases pressure on the food brands and also quickens the entire process.  

Need for Advertising

Launched in August 2014, Swiggy’s aim was to acquaint consumers with complete food ordering and delivery solutions. On its own, Swiggy’s business model was attractive to most customers, with no minimum ordering amount, multiple payment options and quick deliveries, but as with all startups, competition is high, and the only way to stay in the competition is by advertising and spreading the word.

Why Swiggy chose releaseMyAd?

Much like Swiggy, releaseMyAd is a startup too. The reason why we see many startups joining forces is that no one else understands the high demands and risks involved in sustaining and developing such an enterprise. releaseMyAd, being receptive to the demands of Swiggy, and with ample experience in working with other startups, seemed like the best choice for the food brand.

swig-gyOur Targets

Swiggy’s number one priority was brand recognition, to be synonymous with food, and the concept of eating out in the comfort of one’s home. Swiggy operates on mobile phone apps, and the internet, so our aim was to increase app downloads as well as boost the volume of online site visitors.

What We Did

The first step involved in our process was to isolate our target demographic. After taking into consideration numerous factors, we arrived at the conclusion that Swiggy will most likely be used by people with a basic spending power, and those who enjoy eating out. Individuals from the age group of 20-60 who own a smartphone and have access to the internet will be most prone to ordering food online. There are a number of reasons why we took into consideration a consumer base so wide – Swiggy’s no minimum order policy ruled out monetary classifications, and their quick delivery system, as well as their rapidly expanding bases means that a large category of people would readily welcome what Swiggy has to offer.

Media Plan

Since our target demographic comprised of large sections of society, we decided to employ the two media platforms that have the biggest reach – newspapers and the radio. For the radio ad campaign, we chose popular networks such as Radio City 91.1 FM, Red 93.5 FM, Fever 104 FM and Radio One 94.3 FM. For our newspaper ad campaign, we employed Times of India, India’s leading English daily, and Hindustan Times, titans of the North India journalism scenario.

Our targeted cities were Delhi, Pune, Bengaluru and Gurgaon.swiggy-media-plan

When it came to newspaper advertising, we booked ads for Swiggy not only in the main newspapers, but also the category specific supplements, such as Times of India’s Gurgaon Times and Pune Times, and Hindustan Times’ HT City. Apart from the supplements, we also employed the main editions of Times of India and Hindustan Times for maximum reach.

For the radio ad campaign, we distributed air time for our commercial over four top Indian radio networks. Fever FM helped us reach audiences in Delhi, Gurgaon and Bangalore, whereas Radio City, Radio One and Red FM helped us efficiently reach all our target locations.

Thanks to our media buying personnel, we managed to get the lowest advertising rates for the media platforms, and helped Swiggy get more bang for their buck.

Results of the Ad Campaign
Our project with Swiggy delivered mutually favourable results, with Swiggy reporting a surge in lead generation, as well as numerous inquiries from food outlets both big and small, in order to secure partnership. The positive feedback gained by the startup also gave them the impetus to carry forward their expansion plans. The founders of Swiggy also found themselves juggling meetings with a host of new investors.

Peppertap knocks with newspaper and radio ads to deliver home essentials at your doorstep

peppertap-radio-ads

Peppertap’s Profile

Peppertap is your new-age home-essentials shopping destination. It is a new concept that has changed the way people buy groceries and other. Headquartered in Gurgaon, Peppertap began its journey as an online portal that delivered groceries at your doorstep. Within a year, the company expanded to serve metros and other Tier I & Tier II cities like Agra and Meerut too. Peppertap supplies fruits, vegetables, staples, spices, detergents, floor cleaners, edible oils, beverages, frozen foods etc. In short, a few taps with Peppertap can save you the weekly trip to the supermarket.

Need for Advertising

Peppertap was a new concept when it launched in Gurgaon. The company found itself growing and expanding within a few months. In 2015, it went ahead with a nationwide launch. Peppertap needed to scream its existence. Thus, the need for advertising rose. The company wanted to go all guns blazing on the customer’s’ senses. They aimed to make their presence known on all platforms.

The Agency Peppertap Chose

Peppertap being a young venture was looking for a partner which was young and would understand its needs. They wanted an agency that would stick to their budget plan and ensure a high return on investments. Peppertap soon came across releaseMyAd, the favourite online ad portal of start-ups. Their philosophies clicked. And with releaseMyAd on board Peppertap took the nation with a storm.

The Target for Us

Peppertap wanted brand recognition. They were looking to increase their site visits too. Peppertap had launched in several cities where it was looking towards growing its business.

What we did

Our first task was to define the target groups. We concluded after thorough research that the tech-savvy affluent or upper-middle class people between the ages of 20-50 would suit our purpose. The paucity of time in these metros and Tier I & II cities will enable Peppertap to tap the confidence and loyalty of its customers. With assured delivery at your doorstep within 2 hours and minimal delivery charges, Peppertap soon expected to become a leader in the markets of Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Ahmedabad and Jaipur. We knew, initially Peppertap would only appeal to the affluent sections of the society but with time and its aspirational value, it was sure to have a trickle-down effect.

The Media Plan

As we aimed to reach a huge mass of people and increase brand recognition for the company we decided to bombard the target audiences. We took up newspaper ads in leading newspapers of the city along with radio ads, playing throughout the day. Our plan was to simultaneous launch both the campaigns.

The newspaper ads would appear only on weekends as Jacket Front Ads or Jacket Front and Back Ads on the main newspaper. This would continue over a period of 3 months, beginning in July it would run till the first week of October. As we were targeting the bulk of the population in these cities, we went for the Times of India. Keeping the diverse target audience in mind we also advertised in Hyderabad’s Deccan Chronicle, Delhi’s Hindustan Times, Pune’s Sakal and Chennai’s The Hindu too. This ensured the full page display ad was available to most in the aforementioned cities.

The radio ads, on the other hand, would play only in Delhi, Pune, Hyderabad and Bangalore. Top radio stations like Big FM, Radio Mirchi, Radio City, etc. were used for the purpose.

  • For Delhi, Big FM, Fever, Radio City, Oye! Radio One & Red FM was used.
  • In Hyderabad, we partnered with Big FM, Radio City, Radio Mirchi & Red FM to spread the word about Peppertap.
  • Pune heard the radio ads on Radio City, Radio Mirchi and Radio One.
  • In Bangalore, the ads were heard on Big FM, Fever, Radio Mirchi, Radio One and Radio Indigo.

The Commercials

Our radio ad consisted of a 20sec commercial that brought out the advantages of shopping home-requirements through Peppertap. This ad was played throughout the day on the radio stations of Pune, Delhi and Hyderabad for the month of July. The Bangalore radio campaign was conducted in August while the newspapers carried a full page display ad ensuring no one misses the Peppertap ads.

Results after the Ad Campaign

The Peppertap Ad campaign remains one of our most successful ventures. The ad campaign not only established Peppertap as the best online grocery store but amplified its earnings too. Sales at all the cities took off once the ad campaign began. Here is an overview,

  • In Delhi-NCR, Peppertap found 24% more consumers.
  • Sales in Hyderabad picked up 43%.
  • In Pune, sales caught momentum and reached an all-time high of 15%.
  • Sales in Bangalore caught up with Delhi-NCR sales of Peppertap.
  • In Chennai, Ahmedabad, Chandigarh and Jaipur, advertising reaped benefits too. Peppertap reported increased sales by 21%, 33%, 38% and 18% respectively.
  • But it was the City of Dreams, Mumbai which made our dreams come true. In Mumbai, site visits increased by a massive margin of 65% and sales reached a new height of 48%.
