Mumbai: BeanstalkAsia, a new-age integrated marketing communications agency in India and Nepal, delivered a series of engaging films for HomeSure Tile Ex by Walplast. The films, crafted with a humorous and entertaining narrative, aimed to position HomeSure Tile Ex as the "Expert with POWER of 4 ACES," offering revolutionary tile adhesive solutions. The "Power of 4 ACES" signifies easy application, superb adhesion, excellent aquasafe properties (water resistance), and accessibility across India.
Speaking about the performance of the films, Drychem India Ltd Sr VP, marketing, CSR, and business head – P2P division Aniruddha Sinha opined, “HomeSure Tile Ex Tile Adhesives stands out as a technologically advanced and cost-effective solution in the market. Seeking to communicate the benefits engagingly, BeanstalkAsia delivered a campaign that was humorous and has effectively highlighted the advantages of '4 Aces’. Executed primarily through digital and on-ground activation in key cities across the West, North, and Eastern parts of India, the campaign has already achieved impressive results. With 4.5 mn plus views & nearly 3 Mn+ unique viewers, and 1.4 mn plus impressions on YouTube, these figures are noteworthy, particularly given our focus on a niche B2B audience comprising architects, builders, contractors, engineers, and Tile applicators. We also achieved a 52 per cent secondary growth by volumes during the first nine months of FY24.”
BeanstalkAsia founder director Upendra Singh Thakur remarked, "Tile adhesives typically fall into a low involvement category, with end consumers often showing less engagement in the decision-making process compared to their involvement in selecting tile designs. Targeted towards the B2B audiences, this category presented an opportunity to leverage humour and exaggerate situations to capture audience attention. The campaign is centred around slice-of-life concepts that have high recall with an unexpected twist, encouraging the target audience to 'expect the unexpected'."
