OUR WORK
OVERVIEW
Bajaj Allianz Life Insurance Company Limited, one of India's leading private Life Insurance companies, wanted to create awareness and educate consumers about the different financial instruments which can help them save on income tax. We conceptualized, designed and executed Tax Monster – a campaign which helped people tackle their tax worries.
What we set out to achieve
Bajaj Allianz wanted to educate professionals on different ways to save Income Tax through life insurance schemes (under Sec 80 C) using Social and Digital mediums. While potential clients were put off by financial jargon, tax advisors were failing to connect with would be customers. We came up with the idea of creating a character known as the ‘Tax Monster’, a personification of the much hated taxes, communiting in a Bollywood style.

How we did it
The campaign was kicked off by creating content around common tax issues faced by working professionals and individuals, mainly relating to investment options. This was followed up with a robust social media strategy which included hashtags – #TaxGiri (content bucket around tax trivia and tips), #WorryFreeMoment, #BefikarMoment, #MaukePeChauka, #ValenTaxDay, #HERoInMyLife and #KheloHoliBefikar (to periodically fuel the campaign leveraging special occasions). A micro-campaign #PictureAbhiBakiHai was created to let users come up with ideas to overcome problematic situations put up by the brand. An informative video was also created to highlight different ways of defeating the ‘Tax Monster’. All this, backed up with a well-orchestrated strategy involving visual and web-based content to illustrate products and their features. A fun and engaging Facebook game – Defeat the Tax Monster, added the much-needed interactivity to the campaign.

While other digital assets like Tax Calculator and custom tabs (product demo) helped generate a high number of leads. Overall, the Tax Monster campaign was an outright success in bridging the gap between the advisors and end consumers.
