Hoardings across the Northeast, in the local script

National creative usually reaches the Northeast last and in the wrong language. This ran the other way: hoardings across the hill towns carried the nasal drop message with the brand name set in the local script alongside English, on rooftop and roadside sites at the junctions and market approaches that carry the town’s whole traffic. The symptom list stayed in English, where the pharmacy conversation already happens.

What it delivered

Setting the brand name in the regional script signals that the product is meant for that market rather than shipped into it, which matters in a category bought on trust at the counter. Junction sites in hill towns concentrate a whole town’s movement in a way a city site never does.

Where the volume moved, quarter by quarter

Ad volume indexed against the opening quarter = 100, inside one collection batch. The 2026 exports are not on the same footing, so the trend stays within the 12 months to September 2025 rather than crossing that boundary.

The preferred medium

72.7% is television

Television captured the highest share of the sector’s ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025, at 72.7% of estimated television, print and radio spend. Digital sits outside this split because TAM prices it on a different scale; it is reported by ad count instead.

Television 72.7%
Print 26.4%
Radio 0.9%

A plan that skips television buys a smaller share of this category’s voice than the headline spend suggests.
