The success of the OnePlus TV U1S campaign spoke for itself with a voice-enabled, regionally targeted mobile ad (which users can’t stop talking about!)

OnePlus promoted its TV U1S with a very vocal mobile ad campaign that achieved a 2.05% engagement rate, which is 10X higher that industry benchmarks.

By leveraging speech recognition technology, users could speak commands to engage with the mobile ad. For instance, to switch on the TV, users said, “Turn on the TV;” to listen to calming music on Spotify, they said, “Play Relaxing Music.” Similarly, users can give commands to increase the volume, check the weather, or watch any movie on OTT platforms.

The OnePlus campaign reached 9.4MN users who spent an average of 6+ seconds on the mobile ad.

 ZEE5 launched the world digital premiere of RRR with a gamified mobile ad that had movie-buffs ready to Rise, Roar, Revolt!  

ZEE5 built awareness about the world digital premiere of their blockbuster Telugu film RRR. Their gamified mobile ad received 4.6% engagement rate, an astounding 23 times above the industry standard. 

To get familiar with foot-tapping dance song “NAATU” from the movie, users played a 15 second engaging game to the rhythm of this highly trending song, with a gif of the protagonists dancing on the screen.

This game used piano tiles where players had to tap on the right piano tiles every time the word “NAATU” came up during the song. For every right tile tapped, the user got 10 points, for wrong taps, they lost 5. The game perfectly brought together music, dance, entertainment and gaming on the user’s mobile screen.

Not only a fun gamified approach, the mobile ad also spread word about “India’s biggest blockbuster RRR coming to your screens,” to create buzz for the movie premiere on the channel. The campaign reached over 3.2 MN users who spent almost 8.8 seconds on average, tapping their feet to the ad. 

Flipkart Electronics – MIVI used a memory game to showcase their best deals and offers with online shoppers.

Flipkart, being one of the leading e-commerce websites, initiated a campaign for MIVI Ear Buds, with an interactive ad across multiple digital platforms. With many exciting offers on the app, the ad drove interested shoppers to grab the best deals online from Flipkart.

Using an interactive gaming approach to test the players’ memory, users had 8 seconds to remember the positions of 4 pairs of MIVI earbuds on their phone screen, before they were hidden under tiles. Then, they were given another few seconds to flip the tiles and match the correct pairs. On completion of the game, they were led to the Flipkart page to check out shopping offers, like they’ve never seen before.

This spectacular campaign reached more than 45.7 MN users, with an overall 1.61% engagement rate, 8X higher than the industry average. Users spent a good amount of 9.7 seconds, highly engaged with the mobile experience.
As per the Kantar report, the campaign effectively aided awareness by 6%, drove 7% brand favorability, and increased purchase intent by 6% for Flipkart MIVI.

As one of the most popular FMCG brands around, Dettol launched their Dettol Cool soap this summer. Its USP: to make users feel 5 degrees cooler than the hot temperature outside.

By integrating real-time weather & location API, the ad showed the temperature at the user’s location, as the messaging and visuals focused on summer. To beat the heatwave, users were asked to tap 5 falling ice cubes in 8 seconds, to reduce the temperature by 5 degrees. 

After doing this, the brand messaging revealed how users could ‘beat the heat with the #ShowerCooler!’ (in their preferred language, of course) and directed to buy this Cool soap online.

This cool mobile campaign reached more than 11.2 MN users, garnering an engagement rate of 2.84% which is over 14X compared to the industry average. The audience spent an average time of 10 seconds, completely engaged with this ad.
