Results and Effectiveness

The consumers understood the feature that was being communicated, in an effortless and seamless manner.

Creative Execution

By printing the last page as an ad on the first page, we integrated the feature of the car and let the consumers experience it, rather than just read about it, on their preferred leading dailies.

Insights, Strategy and the Idea

The marketing objective was to popularise the rearview camera in the new Volkswagen Vento Preferred. The target audience is middle and upper middle class Indians who are increasingly looking forward to differentiations in the automobile category. The insight was that for millions of Indians, a newspaper in the morning is part of their daily ritual. And most newspapers now run into 18 - 24 pages, with the sports news confined to the last page. Since, getting to that page would take some effort for a sports crazy nation, we thought of a way to simplify that.
