Reliance Communication '‘One India. One Rate’

DELHI/NCR, India - July 29, 2014 - PRLog -- A very new innovative campaign that we did for a new plan '‘One India. One Rate’ .

Here are the details of the campaign that we did

Objectives

Reliance Communication’s ‘One India. One Rate’ plan was the first-ever offering in India to provide users with no roaming charges. The objectives of the digital campaign were

Ø  Create awareness about the ‘One India. One Rate’ plan
Ø  Demonstrate the USP of the plan i.e. ‘roam carefree across India’
Ø  Drive traffic to the landing page of the campaign and generate leads

Solution

We wanted demonstrate to users that they could now continue to make calls and use data without any bill worries, even on roaming. So, we chose one social media influencer, @ghaatidancer to travel across India and experience life without roaming charges. @ghaatidancer travelled to 4 Indian cities in 4 days, uploaded pictures, shared videos and stayed in touch with her loved ones, despite being on roaming. What’s more, she used social media to crowd source the itinerary of the entire campaign. This uninhibited usage of voice and data on roaming clearly helped us demonstrate the proposition of the plan.

Results
The #FreedomToRoam campaign succeeded in achieving the following

Ø  Generated a buzz– The campaign achieved tremendous reach, which in turn generated a lot of curiosity about the ‘One India. One Rate’ plan in the minds of Twitter users. Many users tweeted their queries about the plan.

"This is for the first time RCOM drove a Digital Only campaign (no other media support was provided) to deliver on some very ambitious business and marketing targets. While Social Media Marketing has always been an important digital marketing tool, we took it to the next level by making it the primary driver of messaging and engagement. We contextualized the entire Social Media plan around FIFA world cup fever (which was at its peak) to deliver the message of Free National Roaming. We could not only reach out to the core TG of Smart Devices Roamers but also drove deep engagement. And results have been fantastic. This innovative campaign represents a significant leap forward in how RCOM will use digital communications to drive business results and create awareness of its cutting edge services and products with the world”, said Prasun Kumar, Head - Brand, Communication & Insights, Reliance Communications
