Zee Entertainment's recently launched 'food-tainment' channel Living Foodz has awarded its digital duties to Social Kinnect. The key responsibilities for the agency will be to launch and develop the brand with innovative use of social media and other digital platforms. The account was won after a multi-agency pitch.
Adhishree Murdia, marketing head, Living Foodz, says, "We had a competitive pitch process and had multiple agencies participate. What set Social Kinnect apart from the rest was the fact that they came up with the most engaging and interesting campaign ideas, and understood our business and audience very well. It was the passion and perseverance shown by the team that made us select Social Kinnect."
Rohan Mehta, CEO, Social Kinnect, says, on the win, "Living Foodz is a challenging brand to work with as we are trying to preserve the consumer sentiment from the Zee Khana Khazana transition and increase the breadth of the TG under the 'Living' banner. We hope to execute innovative strategies across established and developing social media platforms, convey the new brand promise and vibrancy, and build a much larger digital audience. Extensive use of videos, online to on-air integration and live updates are a few of the tactics we plan to use."
