The creatives for the campaign are designed by BBH while the digital part is executed by Soho Sqare.
Bhavesh Somaya, marketing director, Diageo India says that the concept behind the campaign is that time is an extremely rare commodity, which goes exclusively with Johnnie Walker Blue. "In today's busy world, people have very less time and they are trying to crunch as much time as possible to add to their achievement and career. But at the same time, the relations that we have are also important, and this is an attempt to cherish some of the moments that one has spent with his father and pay a tribute to it," adds Somaya.
The target audience for this campaign is young professionals belonging to SEC A+, mid-level and senior level professionals who want to pay a tribute to their fathers.
Somaya adds that this campaign will enhance and strengthen the brand's relations with its consumers and loyalists. The brand plans to keep the conversation going with future activities. It has released print advertisements for the campaign and is also reaching out through online and social media.
