Case studies

Campaigns we have run in Cycles

Work we planned, booked and photographed for advertisers in this sector, run by the same team and the same process you would work with.

Spinoto · Automotive

A brand launch event for an on-demand mechanic app

A service app has nothing to show until someone uses it, so the launch had to create the first proof itself. We produced the brand launch event end to end: stage and backdrop branding carrying the fifteen-minute mechanic promise, the app walkthrough on screen, and photography of the founding team and partners on the day. The assets from the event then seeded the launch announcement across social and press outreach.

What it delivered

The event gave the launch a dated, photographed moment to point at, which is what press and social outreach need. Branding the backdrop rather than only the stage meant every photograph taken in the room carried the proposition, including the ones guests posted themselves.

Proposition Mechanic in 15 minutes

Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Methodology & notes

Built from 18 industry-standard ad-monitoring and research sources. Every figure is a count of ads recorded, not rupees, because ad cost is not comparable between TV, radio, print and online. Geography (cities) covers print, radio and outdoor only. Updated monthly. Full methodology →

Coverage: these figures reflect the advertising we were able to track across our data sources, a large sample but not every ad placed in India. Treat them as a directional, relative picture, not an absolute or complete record.
