Background Amazon was doing a lot of BTL activations for new sellers registrations. Although new seller registrations do happen, but on an average there was a 21 days lag between registration and launch (i.e. actual selling on the platform). Amazon team eagerly wanted to bring this down.
Strategy: Time to launch is of the essence. If the process from registration to launch could be made hastened, sellers would get onboard faster and thus see sales coming in sooner.

Visual Theme Concept
Insurance as a sector can be a maze to navigate. Without in-depth domain knowledge, a client can easily lose its way.
We, at Global, play the role of a guide, using our technical expertise and years of experience in each sector to pick a policy—and where necessary, tailor one—to suit our client’s needs.
The maze gives us a lot of shotcut but there’s only one best— often the longest—route to success. This is the route we take. We strongly stand for our ethics and will never compromise them for any business shortcuts.

Story So Far.... Capgemini has policies and protocols to help employees deal with every situation. They also have thousands of employees—many of them new joinees. The policies, in great detail, have always been housed on the company's intranet. But getting everyone to visit the site to understand, imbibe and propagate the company's culture was proving to be a challenge—and there was no existing policy to handle it! Confidential | Copyright © Velocita Brand Consultants Pvt Ltd
Creative Strategy We designed a two-phased campaign to excite curiosity and sustain interest long enough for employees to learn about the policies and the many benefits they offered. The policies were originally merely a collection of documents The first step of our campaign was to give shape and weight to the compilation of policies—by creating an identity. Presenting:

The next step was to propagate the existence of the Hub. Campaign Inspiration: It is only their absence that makes us notice many basic conveniences that we take for granted
Phase 1 Communications highlighting the consequences of specific actions. Each design was strategically placed in locations that were most relevant. Thus: Bus stand where employees waited to catch their ride home: What if nobody stood in line?

What if this bus didn’t arrive on time?
Phase 1: Teasers

Phase 1: Reveal
Guidelines and rules exist in our daily life but they are beautifully invisible. We only notice them when they are not adhered to. Life can be really chaotic without them.
Similarly, there are policies at Capgemini that are meant to make your work life more efďŹ cient and simpler.

Story So Far.... MasterCard's merger with Pune (India) based ElectraCard gave it a number of strengths, but it also created a small divide in work-culture, especially for the earlier company's employees who were used to a more start-up type roughand-ready work environment.
Bridging this gap without ruffling feathers called for finesse.
