Train headrest covers for a Marvel audio series

Audio needs a moment when someone is seated, idle and holding a phone, which is exactly a train journey. Headrest covers were branded across the coaches with the Marvel audio series titles, Spider-Man and Iron Man, and each cover carried a QR code and the app store badges, so the passenger looking at the seat in front could start listening on the same journey. The format sits in the passenger’s eye line for the whole trip.

What it delivered

Putting the QR code on the seat in front converts the format from branding into an install route, because the audience is already holding the device the ad wants them to use. Licensed characters did the stopping work, so the panel only needed to carry the title and the code.

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.
