It's black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel, sweet as love - this is how Charles Maurice de Talleyrand chose to describe a perfect cup of coffee. Acknowledging the idyllic indulgence of the beverage, Vero stepped fresh into the digital world introducing their blend of coffee to the country.
Entering the digital world
Most of us are merrily guilty of being a part of the sphere that refuses any form of human interaction without that mug full off caffeine, then there are those who relish a cup or two over a delightful conversation, and for some, it’s just a comfort beverage to relish under wraps. Despite what category you fall in, coffee for most adults is a part of their lifestyle.
Vero, an Italian term that stands for real, true, and perfect; abiding by its name the brand established a strong foothold in the digital portal and decided to re-invent the deep rooted Indian essence instead of chasing the western flavors.
To get their consumers hooked on to the Indian flavors by getting their senses jittery, Vero motivated to evolve the caffeine experience for Indian coffee connoisseurs.
Brewing finely on social media
Bringing in a fresh puff in the world of coffee in India and battling with strength in the digital world shoulder to shoulder with big brands Vero has churned out a commendable entrance in the digital world by running multiple activities around.
Commencing a month long campaign on varied platforms, Vero blended in a multi-facet campaign to throw a spotlight on itself.
On Facebook, Vero partnered with Om Nom Nom, a page stringently dedicated to food and produces inventive recipes in brief for their viewers through dauntingly delicious visuals. Pairing up with this page, the brand published a rich recipe of coffee with a tinge of avocado to leave us salivating which resulted in 404,000 views and 537 shares.
While on Twitter, Vero upheld a contest where the brand asked how a good cup of coffee brightens your day? Revolving their entire campaign around coffee and its influence on our lifestyle the brand managed to place itself intelligibly on Twitter gaining attention from Twitteratis who actively hopped on to participate.
