``Servis changed the way motorbikers relate to their tyres. A tyre being a low involvement product, bikers took the recommendation of the dealer or chose a lower-priced brand. Bikers regularly have mishaps on the road but generally remain careless about safety protocols. Using a relevant insight, we were able to emotionally engage them to change their outlook, making Servis Tyres, their first choice despite being premium-priced. Servis became the brand leaderby far in the motorbike tyre category. Sales increased by 20.44% against a target of 5% with a major improvement in brand health indicators vs the competition. ``

Summer 2020 had seen COVID-19 case numbers rise exponentially in Pakistan, and the public was not following government SOPs to battle it. To encourage Pakistanis to wear facemasks in order to protect themselves and others, we appealed to their national sense of duty by singing the National Anthem on independence day as it never had been done before: through facemasks. An emotional Shahzad Roy sang the anthem accompanied by a diverse choir in facemasks, urging the Pakistani public to fight COVID-19 by following SOPs.

``To maintain its growth momentum towards becoming the category leader, Ariel had to own a point-of-differentiation within ‘stain removal’ - a claim utilised by all detergent brands. Through research, Ariel uncovered a unique torture test within stain removal: cuffs and collar stains, which consumers can’t clean without rigorous scrubbing. Ariel solved this consumer tension by product upgradation, strong marketing and trade exploitation - establishing its point-of-differentiation. Resultantly, Ariel retained the #1 position on stain removal equity, led the category’s brand health measures (Top of Mind and Brand Linkage), growing sales & consumption over next quarter (17% and 11% respectively).``

Almost 80% of Pakistanis own a sim. It is evident that mobile technology reaches where no one can. Telenor, UNCIEF & the Government of Pakistan captialised on Pakistan’s transformative teledensity and leapfroged outdated, paper-based birth registration systems by creating a new, very simple, but highly effective media channel. An Android mobile application that can register a precious life within 10 minutes as opposed to an average of 4320 minutes for absolutely free.``

`` With over 70% of Pakistan’s population directly or indirectly dependent on agricultural produce to earn their livelihood, it is no wonder that the agriculture sector is the backbone of the economic skeleton of Pakistan. Yet technological and social advancements are the last to empower this sector, especially the small farmer whose plight goes largely unaddressed and is manipulated by ravenous middlemen & monopolizing big farmers. Telenor Pakistan identified the potential in digitally enabling the agriculture sector through a digital intervention and Khushaal Watan 7272, a user-friendly Robocall, IVR and SMS content-based service to empower the Pakistani farmer came into being.``

1 in 3 households in Pakistan have a child burn victim. Most are casualties of the most common Pakistani household item: hot tea, and the negligent manner in which it is handled. Through an astonishingly powerful film and campaign, which emphasised to parents that a burn on a child is one tea stain that can never be removed, we effectively managed to change behaviour so much that in the 6 months following the campaign, child burn cases due to hot tea reduced by an incredible 50%.

Economic downturn affected the consumers’ purchasing power, forcing food brands to drop their prices. Market place was cluttered with deals, special offers and price-offs. McDonald’s had to do the same to remain competitive and safeguard its share of Target Audiences’ (TA) shrinking wallet. We needed to stand out with our communication and grab the audiences’ attention. Communication was coined that would go way beyond maintaining our share. Our Guest Counts and Sales not only increased, they increased enough to boost gross profit margins in these hard times!
