women from Bangalore and Hyderabad were invited to Hardrock Café on every
Wednesday night for fun games, get togethers, free drinks etc.

• Promoted this event on Facebook and Twitter and also every Wednesday on the
Facebook page we conducted a contest for fans with a question related to their
girlfriends. Eg: What would you and your girlfriend dress up as for a costume party
and why. The 5 best answers were gifted Femina goodie bags.

our contest.

WHAT?
• We designed a ‘Tag a friend’ Social interview application on the brand lines of the
Femina Relaunch campaign. There are 16 questions and each of them were
derived from the Relaunch campaign itself. Fans had to tag a friend for every
question and then publish it on their Facebook wall.

29. WHY?
• This application was an extension of Femina’s Relaunch camaign. It was in direct
relation to the approach of the Relaunch campaign that focussed on “For all the
women you are” The idea was to tag a friend who fits the bill of certain preset
characteristics in this fun application
IMPACT –
• 3,000+ people played the game in a span of 1 month.
• Hence we succeeded in establishing a direct correlation between the magazine
and the application reiterating the fact that Femina is not only an older women’s
magazine but an all women’s magazine.

Be Sharp. Be Innovative. Be

31. WHAT?
• In synchronization with the Relaunch campaign we acknowledged 10 Bloggers
(women) from different fields like Fashion, Beauty, Society, Films etc. to talk about
our re launch campaign on their blogs and in turn Femina spoke about them on
the page and conducted Twinterviews (twitter interviews) with them.
WHY?
• It was a initiative to celebrate womanhood.
• It gave our re launch campaign good visibility on selected blogs and blogger
recommendations as well.

• We celebrated women in every diverse field like fashion, beauty, food, society,
entertainment and books.
