“Future Generali Insurance<br />
Week” a Guinness Record to<br />
raise the awareness of the<br />
importance of insurance<br />
MUMBAI Future Generali launched a new marketing campaign “Future Generali Insurance<br />
Week”(29th January – 6th February) a generic Insurance campaign across all FG branches & Big<br />
Bazaars across the country in the months of January & February with the objective of increasing<br />
Insurance penetration in the country. They also used the Future Group retail formats to actively<br />
engage with customers & make them aware of the need for Insurance.<br />
This marketing campaign was created by Ogilvy India. “Future Generali Insurance Week” was<br />
not a mere marketing campaign, but a movement aimed at breaking the barriers of inertia and<br />
procrastination towards Insurance, which is the general attitude across the country. Apart from high<br />
decibel advertising - TV-3 films-, hoardings, radio, website, social network - they had a massive on<br />
ground activation, where they ran a signature campaign in 103 BigBazaar outlets & 192 FG branches,<br />
encouraging people to sign a white balloon ( which was also shown in our TV commercials ), as<br />
symbol of participating & supporting FGIW campaign, along with a pledge card, saying ‘I pledge<br />
to revaluate my Insurance needs during the Insurance Week’ They also ran a similar signature<br />
campaign on online on the website & FG Facebook page, which was well received and got significant<br />
participation.<br />
As a result, they got over 1 million people to sign the balloons and over half million people to sign the<br />
pledge cards. These balloons were then collected at a single location in Mumbai on the final event<br />
day and used to create the long balloon chain in the form of roof ( representing Cover, which is the<br />
primary benefit of Insurance ). This balloon chain was then certified as the longest balloon chain in the<br />
world, but Guinness World Record authorities, London and awarded a certificate for creating a new<br />
world record.<br />

Creative Insight:<br />
In line with the “Karta” philosophy - of the Head of the family or bread-winner and his<br />
role in protecting and ensuring the prosperity of his family. It is the Karta’s responsibility<br />
to ensure the financial security of his family in his lifetime and after. Non fulfillment of this<br />
“duty” could lead to his soul not achieving “mukti” (peace of mind).<br />
The creative is a daring attempt to drive home the largely ignored importance of buying<br />
adequate Insurance during one’s lifetime to ensure the financial protection of loved ones<br />
– it had perforce to be strong an un-ignorable because of the huge problem of inertia and<br />
procrastination that characterizes most retail prospects when it comes to finally buying<br />
Insurance.<br />
