Virtual Marketing revamps Coca Cola website myenjoyzone

NEW DELHI: E-marketing company Virtual Marketing India has revamped Coca-Cola India's website www.myenjoyzone.com in order to provide richer interactivity and an enhanced brand experience to its consumers. The re-launched version has been introduced today.

Coca-Cola India will propagate the new version through a tie-up with forthcoming film (starring Abhishek Bachchan-Aishwarya Rai) Kuch Na Kaho. As per the initiative, participation in the contest would only be possible through www.myenjoyzone.com. The winner of the contest is entitled to get a `dream date' with actress in the movie - Aishwarya Rai.
On the re-launched version, Virtual Marketing creative director Carlton D'Silva says: "We have created a virtual online city, in which a surfer can walk into various buildings. For instance, one can enter into cineplex, buy merchandise of the brand or relax at Coke lounge where one can chat or leave message in message boards. Similarly, there is a cricket stadium and a music store. So properties which the Coke community can relate to have been presented in an innovative manner."

Launched in March 2002, the content comprises music, promos, movies and cricket and myenjoyzone basically used these key brand activation areas for consumer interactivity. "But this initiative is going to be a concerted effort towards enriching the experience of being online. The experience of logging in would be totally differentiated through virtual walking experience complemented by features."

"The earlier portal was basically HTML-based. But the new site predominantly is going to be flash-based. It will act as one-stop integrated marketing solution merging all the elements of the virtual community with real-world promotions and nationwide campaigns," adds D'Silva.

The research conducted in order to shape the website as per the liking of its target audience led to origination of several features - which weren't part of the website earlier.

"For instance, the research revealed that there was need to put up information on Coke brand. So we have interested facts about the brand such as the original colour of Santa Claus was green but it was Coke which resulted in the change to red and white colour," says D'Silva.
