Flipkart's #AaoPhirPakdeRaftaar motivates sellers in India

#AaoPhirPakdeRaftaar by Flipkart aims to raise the spirits of its sellers by motivating them to come together and address the needs of the country, to mark the beginning of the new phase post the nationwide lockdown.

Flipkart's “#AaoFirPakdeRaftaar” marks the beginning of the new phase post the nationwide lockdown. The campaign aims to raise the spirits of sellers by motivating them to come together and address the needs of the country, and by evoking the sense of importance they play in consumer’s lives as they stay indoors and follow social distancing.

In an attempt to showcase the impact of the lockdown on different segments, the main film, through different stories, navigates through the lives of three characters facing different challenges in their field of work. The three scenarios display the apprehensions and the challenges faced by the seller ecosystem during the lockdown and glimpse of a resurgence as the business ramps up across the country, through Flipkart.

Although the main film addresses the central idea of giving hope and encouraging sellers to resume their operations, the campaign also intends to educate sellers on ways to ramp up and grow their businesses. To accomplish this, smaller films have been made where through scenario-based stories. To help its sellers get back on their feet, Flipkart is running an integrated marketing campaign and providing real-time support to them.

Commenting on the launch of the campaign, Jagjeet Harode, Senior Director & Head - Marketplace, Flipkart said, "Our sellers are an integral part of our marketplace business and this period has been a challenging time for them, their families and their workforce. As the country imbibes the model of a ‘new normal’ and businesses begin to adjust their operations, we want to ensure that our seller community is equally motivated and driven to play their roles in this pandemic. We wanted to reiterate our commitment towards their business development and hence this campaign has been developed to motivate them in this journey."
