MUMBAI: Colgate-Palmolive (India) has unveiled a new integrated marketing campaign for Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief.
According to the Colgate spokesperson, a survey was conducted by Colgate-Palmolive (India) Limited and Nielsen which revealed that sensitivity is one of the top oral care problems and is faced by 40 per cent Indians. The new campaign has been conceptualised on the core insight that consumers tend to believe that they can cope with tooth sensitivity by giving up hot/cold/sour food items or drinks.
The campaign is executed by Red Fuse Communications, a Y&R agency dedicated to servicing Colgate-Palmolive (India). Red Fuse Communications national director planning Zubin Tatna says, “A nice, hot cup of tea adds freshness to our mornings and keeps us invigorated during the day. For Indians, tea is an integral part of our daily lives. Unfortunately, those who suffer from tooth sensitivity tend to quit tea and other food items that aggravate the problem. Based on this insight, the new integrated marketing campaign aims at communicating the message that Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief provides instant relief from sensitivity while allowing you to continue enjoying your favourite food and beverages.”
On the campaign, Colgate’s spokesperson says, “As market leaders, it is our constant endeavor to innovate and revolutionise the oral care category. Today, consumer trends are changing every day and the market is opening up to newer opportunities. Integrated marketing campaigns have to combine brand messages with newer ways of connecting with consumers.”
Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief was launched in 2011 and then, the IMC campaign flagged off with a TVC featuring real-life consumers sharing their tooth sensitivity problems. The TVC captured their positive reactions after the use of the toothpaste on the spot, thereby highlighting the instant relief providing property of it.
He adds, “Our newly launched integrated marketing campaign, this November, is centered on the significance of tea in our lives. Building on this facet of the consumer’s lifestyle, the campaign acknowledges the fact that sacrificing tea is not an option, even while dealing with sensitivity. Poor oral hygiene and eating habits are key reasons for sensitivity.”
The integrated marketing campaign will be supported by a vibrant mix of communication and activation through various vehicles of mass media such as TV, print, digital, radio, retail and other professional channels.
