Creative Idea

Be it bridal jewellery, a piece one has inherited from his/her grandmother, the very first diamond jewellery or even the everyday imitation jewellery one might have picked up on a whim; every jewellery piece has a story.

Through Jewelfie, Tanishq invited people to celebrate their treasure trove of jewellery, relive the memories and share them with the world. 

Challenges

Audiences were still confused about ‘how to enter’ even after reiterating the method of sending an entry that would result in losing a few entries even though the intent was very much there.

Missing

out on a larger reach of the campaign with Jewelfies from private accounts.

Execution

This was primarily a social media-led campaign that was executed on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.



On Instagram, a bunch of themes was launched. On stories, the brand reposted the organic entries that came in every day.

As for Facebook, Tanishq highlighted all the entries on an album and put up posts inviting people to participate in the contest.

On Twitter, the grand prize, the weekly winners and inviting people to participate, was reiterated.

The brand involved a few influencers like Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Ami Patel, Eshaa Amiin, Aiana Jain, Mamta Sharma Das (the bohobaalika) and college students who nominated other influencers to post their Jewelfie which added to the reach.

The

incentive of having weekly winners that won vouchers and a grand prize which was

later revealed as a stunning Tanishq set from their latest collection, Virasat,
added to the overall engagement for the campaign.

Results

  • Entries: 3000+
  • Mentions: 1,126
  • Impressions: 2.66 million
  • Reach: 304.2k
  • Engagement: 3778
