2. Analysing consumer insights from real conversations

To drive the campaign, we analyzed the existing conversations in the above communities and observed that:

  • Members were concerned about the possibility of a third covid wave.
  • Members shared the precautions they were taking in homes ahead of time to limit surface contamination from airborne particles or from touching surfaces with contaminated hands.

Based on the existing conversations we observed, we aimed to drive conversations around how members should keep their houses clean and ensure that they are germ-free.

3. Community Marketing campaign idea

We curated a two-phased campaign for the brand. In the first phase, admins initiated conversations by sharing their ways and experiences of maintaining air hygiene with surface hygiene with an introduction to Godrej Protekt products and their benefits. They highlighted the importance of germ protection while also keeping our surroundings clean. They encouraged members to share how they maintained home hygiene and also asked them to try Godrej Protekt.

In the second phase, admins shared various use cases of using Godrej Protekt Air and Surface Disinfectant Spray. The admins shared personal stories and experiences on ensuring germ protection, like disinfecting the door nobs, curtains, sofas, etc. They encouraged the members not to overlook any germ cohorts nearby and to ensure that they kept their surroundings clean and germ-free. The admins also used the hashtag #GermsKaKhatma and motivated members to use Godrej products for safety and hygiene.

Throughout the campaign, ‘Germ Protection’ & ‘Fragrance’ was established as brand propositions. The content was created keeping in mind the brand vision and purpose, prompting members to share real-life stories and experiences that helped build trust amongst the community members.
