DDB Mudra South bags creative mandate for Gem Paints

Gem Paints has awarded its creative duties to DDB Mudra. DDB Mudra will drive strategy and creative for the company in its journey of transitioning from a B2B to a B2C brand.

Nitin Gandotra, Director, Gem Paints said, "The benefits of a communication expert for the growth and development of a business is often downplayed.

He adds, "A fresh & improvised perspective in the objectives, driving strategy, with a target to reach the most effective markets & a whole new creative campaign for the company. DDB Mudra undoubtedly has a lot of successful campaigns to their credit. They were chosen and finalised for their vast and thorough knowledge of consumer behaviour in India, extensive reach, and an overall holistic approach".

Commenting on the win, Ranji Cherian, President & Managing Partner, DDB Mudra South said, “This oft-repeated divide between B2B and B2C marketing is misleading. The way in which people interact with either B2B or B2C brands is incredibly similar. People rely heavily on emotions rather than information alone to make brand decisions. It’s a pleasure to partner with a visionary leader at Gem Paints who appreciated our deep understanding of social and cultural contexts that moves people at scale.”
