Why brands leverage IPL?
IPL fetches brands a lot of money because
 IPL is highest profile showcase in the world for T20
cricket
 Sky reaching commercial success
 Cricket fever in India out of limits
 Entry of celebrities in IPL
© Seema Gupta
Examples
Quikr IBL
campaign
© Seema Gupta
If he would have been a
mobile/ laptop/bike ……….
……. he would have been
quickly sold on Quikr
© Seema Gupta
 This ad was related to unsold cricketers who were
not playing for any IBL (Indian Becho League) team
 What’s the problem then???
The word IBL was deliberately coined to sound like IPL
 IPL brand managers got Quikr to beep out the word
IBL in its ads later on
 Would this beep have been helpful???
The beep generated free word of mouth promotion
of the brand.

PepsiCo bought title sponsorship for IPL 6 in

 To avoid any chances of ambush, Pepsi also bought
pouring rights for all the teams but one.
Pepsi’s bad luck:
Coca Cola bought pouring rights for Mumbai Indians – the
winning team and got to serve in home matches of Mumbai
Indians
Where’s the ambush???
Coca Cola put up several kiosks right outside Delhi's Firoz
Shah Kotla and Chennai's Chepauk stadiums where young
boys and girls in red T-shirts sold the newly launched 400-ml
Coke bottles for just !!! © Seema Gupta
Pepsi’s counter attack
Pepsi introduced a congratulatory ad for Mumbai
Indians, on newspapers featuring a picture of the
team lifting the cup. The headline of the ad read,
“ ”, directly rhyming
with the Pepsi theme, “ ”, thus hitting
back at Coke.

Cadbury “T20 ka
Shubh Aarambh”
© Seema Gupta
© Seema Gupta
Cadbury’s cleverness
 Used the fact that T20 is used in synonymous sense with IPL in
India.
 On the inaugural day of IPL, Cadbury ran full page ads in
newspapers with the message “ ”.
 The campaign was smartly advertised using social media
platforms also, like Twitter and Facebook where
(an Indian cricket commentator and journalist) judged
the best consumer tweets and winners were presented gifts
daily
