| The Top 15 winners of Pepsi's 'Toss kA Boss' consumer
initiative will live their dream and accompany team captains to the
pitch for the toss during the matches. Another 50 winners will get
an all expense paid trip to watch a Champions Trophy match and one
million other winners will be given miniature 'collector's item' like
cricket bats signed by players of the eight countries participating
in the tournament.
PepsiCo India Holdings Pvt. Ltd. chairman Rajeev Bakshi said, "Brand
Pepsi enjoys dominant salience with cricket in the country thanks
to its decade-long, innovative association with the game. We are
looking forward to another huge opportunity to engage with our consumers
during the ICC Champions Trophy. Our return on investment in the
game is unprecedented because we have been able to combine the huge
media opportunities of the game in terms of viewership as well as
engage the consumer through unique promotions. Pepsi's 'Toss kA
Boss' adds scale to cricketing excitement and provides Pepsi fans
an opportunity to be at the center of an international cricketing
event."
This consumer initiative is being supported by an innovative, high
visibility multi-media communications package including TV campaigns,
radio spots, on ground activities and Point of Sale merchandise.
A special 'Toss kA Boss' school contact programme will take the
excitement to 425 schools across 14 cities including Delhi, Chandigarh,
Ludhiana, Amritsar, Jalandar, Agra, Jaipur, Dehradun, Lucknow, Kanpur,
Mumbai and Pune. As part of the programme, six-overs-a-side cricket
matches will be played between different teams in each school and
the winners will get attractive prizes.
The 'Toss kA Boss', television campaign, which is slated for release
is true to the irreverent spirit of brand Pepsi.
