TV star contest in their new TV commercial. The lucky winner has
been selected among thousands of entries for the BANO AOL STAR contest.
The
BANO AOL STAR campaign invited consumers to give feed back on AOL's
email service and get a chance to feature in their nextTV commercial.
. The campaign offered a platform to consumers to appear on national
TV: allanyone needed to do was to givetheir views on AOL's email
service and get lucky. The campaign was targeted at the 18-22 yr
age group, who are avid net users.

adopted a very transparent procedure to evaluate the feedback received
and choose the lucky winner. Of the short listed entries, those
who were willing to be filmed were invited for auditions and screen
tests. The final winner ; Mr. Suryakant Chaterjee , a 26 year old
media executive from New Delhiwas chosen based on those criteria.

this new initiative from AOL, Mr. Krish Seshadri, Head-Marketing
AOL said "The approach adopted is very unique in itself, as
our consumers have been made an integral part of the evolution.We
wantto ensure that we don't lose sight of our consumers and the
way they perceive our product"
