1.India 3G Market Forecast 2010-2014Bids running into thousands of crores made the Governement happy and Telecom operators sob. This is
what all the story is about, the numbers.
The latest Wireless Intelligence Report portrays quite satisfactory growth of Indian 3G
subscriber base over next half-decade. According to the report WDMA i.e. 3G will account
for 13% of total mobile connections by 2014 in India. The report also predicts that 3G
connections will surpass mark of 10 million by Q1 2011, will reach 100 million by Q1 2014,
and will hit mark of 150 million by 2014 year end. Lets highlight key findings of the report
here:-
By the year end BSNL will account for two third of 3G sub base in India ( Due to FirstMovers advantage), while its counterpart MTNL, which operates in Delhi & Mumbai
only, will account for 10% of 3G sub base.
By 2014, top three Indian Telcos namely Rcom, Airtel & Vodafone-Essar will account for43% of WCDMA market share, while tier-II operators Idea, Aircel, STel & Tata Teles
combined market share will stand at 32%. At the same time BSNL & MTNLs combined
3G market share will drop to 22%.
India Telcos are expected to rollout 3G network by year end i.e. within span of 6-8months after spectrum auctions. Metro circles will initially charge up the subscriber
additions, which will be outpaced by Category A & B Telecom circles soon.
By 2014, Category A & B circles will comprise of more than two third of 3G connectionbase, while Metro circles namely Mumbai, Delhi & Kolkata will account for 10% of

connection base. Outside Delhi & Mumbai, Maharashtra, Tamilnadu, Haryana, West
Bengal, Assam & NE are likely to be most competitive 3G telecom circles.
The report also analyses the developments in Indian Telecom Market during last one year
period. According to the report, in last 10 months, Idea & MTS launched operations in 6 new
circles, DoCoMo took its GSM presence tally to 17 circles, Cheers in 9, Videocon in 6 & STel
in 3. Report also forecasts that by 2013 Indian 2G subscriber base is likely to cross 1 billion
mark.

2.VODAFONE 3GVideo Calling, Mobile Newspaper, HD gaming, Live Streaming, Vodafone TV, Video Blogging,
etc. Can be enjoyed using 3G. All this isnt for attractive prices. Though it is the time for
price skimming, as most early adopters would help Vodafone recover a part of licensing fee;it is expected that the rates of all telecom providers will normalize in near future. The rest is
yet to be experienced.
2.1 Target Audience
The target audience for 3G is SEC A Male (prominently) and Female between the age
group of 20-35. Essentially, people who would be early adopters of this technology, who use
the internet every day but avoid using so on their mobile due to slow speed and high
charges on download, will be our target market.
2.2 Positioning
Vodafones strategy is to position Vodafones 3G services as Faster, Smarter & Better.
Through our initiatives, we will strive to simplify 3G for our consumers by making the 3G
experience more interactive & engaging through trial offers, Vodafone 3G experiential zones
set up at Vodafone Store and the Vodafone Zoo zoo world our mall activation exercise.
2.3 Vodafone 3G in India
The current base of 3G devices in the country is less than 4-5% of the total installed base. Atthis stage, it is important to drive adoption. Vodafone has acquired 3G footprint across 10
circles Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, Uttar
Pradesh (E) & West Bengal. We shall ensure that these markets are fully serviced; post
which we would like to penetrate to smaller towns, once the infrastructure is in place. We
expect over 10% of our users in urban areas to use 3G services a year after the launch.
The Indian population should be well-served by 3G technology. It is the only realistic chance
for broadband internet services in rural areas. It will prove beneficial in delivering economic
and social development, education & government services.
2.4Advertising AgencyOgilvy & Mather Advertising
2.5 Vodafone ZooZoo 3G Campaign - Integrated Marketing Communication campaignVodafone is on a roll. They have been the highest gainer in terms of the people who have
decided to port out of their existing operator and switch to Vodafone. But as predicted
earlier, MNP has not been a game changer. Less than 1% of the total subscribers havedecided to switch their operator. But this post is not about MNP, its about the 3G campaign

featuring Vodafone India's brand ambassadors "The ZooZoo community" and their hero
"Zoo 3G". If the tales of zoozoo weren't enough on television you will still not miss the
ZooZoo 3G avatar. If you fare high on the geek meter (a nerd like me), you'll catch him on
YouTube, Journal websites, Google ads and news portals. If you toil through the streets like
a bus driver or a rickshaw puller, you'll catch him on almost every second billboard. If youare a frequent flier, you'll not miss on the airport. If you happen to be at the Delhi airport
around this time, you'll see a Zoozoo city out there. Every aesthetically sound corner for
advertising has a Zoozoo banner. And if that's not enough, the community kids are
spreading the most popular form i.e. Word-of-Mouth. The important thing to note is that
the whole campaign is "Integrated". The term IMC (Integrated Marketing Communications)
is literally engraved in all books and research papers on promotional strategy, but sadly very
few practitioners adopt it. Vodafone's 3G -ZooZoo campaign is an immaculate example of an
integrated marketing communication (IMC) campaign. If CocaCola gave shape to the santa,
the future generations will remember vodafone for zoozoo.
About ZooZoo
The egg headed white creatures with big ballooned bodies are characters promoted by
Vodafone since the second season of Indian Premier League (IPL). Vodafone had asked
Ogilvy & Mather to create a series of 30 advertisements which could be aired each day
during the IPL Season 2. They are used to promote various value added services of
Vodafone. Although they look animated, they are actually humans in wearing "ZooZoo"
costumes. These ads were created by Ogilvy & Mather, the agency handling Vodafoneadvertisements. They were shot by Nirvana Films in Cape Town, South Africa.
The Idea was conceived by Rajiv Rao, the national creative director at Ogilvy India. The
characters were named ZooZoo because Rajiv and his team "wanted something that
sounded cute, lovable and a bit mad like the characters. Rajiv also "wanted to make real
people look as animated as possible".
The character
The Zoozoos are thin small-bodied women covered in layers of fabric. Each facial expression
of the character is made of rubber and pasted on the actors to reduce the time and cost for
shoot. The effect was achieved by a variety of methods including reducing the
footage frame-rates, using the right material for the body suits to ensure a wrinkle free
outer layer when the characters moved, and keeping backgrounds simple in terms of
detailing color (grey). The sets were made larger than life to make the characters look
smaller. The whole of first series was shot in a record time of 10 days. ZooZoo ad campaign
also won the PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) glitter box award for replacing
the pug (remember Hutch) with ZooZoo (considered to be a more humane alternative).
The response by Indian audience was phenomenal. Although experts claim that the ads didnot achieve the target of increasing VAS usage. ZooZoos have become a brand in themselves
8/3/2019 Vodafone Idea Report

with ZooZoo T-shirts and other accessories being sold at retail chains apart from thousands
of visits to their YouTube advertisements and over 2 million fans on Facebook pages.
2.5 Building awareness and preference
To create awareness for 3G, we have outlined a full 360-degree campaign that includes a
mix of print, television and outdoor. We have used the much loved Zoozoos to create the
initial communication blast during the World Cup to communicate that Vodafone 3G is here.
Our outdoor campaign centres around the Super Zoozoo where we have used glass facades,
3D cut-out hoardings and large 3D models of the Super Zoozoo.
Vodafone has launched 3G services in all the circles where it has acquired footprint and we
are inviting our customers to try out Vodafones 2G services. We have around 67 stores
where consumers can go and experience 3G services and we will increase that number aswe go along. We have also created special Zoozoo worlds in a few malls in Delhi and
Mumbai, which will give fans an opportunity to experience 3G services. Fans and visitors can
also get pictures clicked with their much loved Super Zoozoo, play fun games, take home
Zoozoo goodies and win exciting prizes.
3.IMC TOOLS FOR VODAFONE 3G3.1 Vodafone 3G Ad: The newspaper launch
Newspapers, with 26 percent of total advertising volume, are the largest of the advertising media.
Because newspaper advertising can be tailored for individual communities, local advertising is
common. Newspapers also reach nearly everyone in the community. Other advantages are that
readers can refer back to them, and they can be coordinated with other advertising and
merchandising efforts. In fact, advertising is considered the third most useful feature in newspapers,
after national and local news. A disadvantage is the relatively short life span
Feb 27th 2011, Vodafone launched new avatar of zoozoo, an egg-headed zoozoo superman via
print. Vodafone has always been innovative to attract users; this time also they have launched it big
time which came along with sweat of other telecom companies of the country.
The newspaper ad generated curiosity where they said, Fact or Fiction? Mystery unfolds today; Find
out during the India-England match in almost all leading newspapers front page.
3.2 Vodafone 3G Ad: Internet Marketing and Online PromotionInternet marketing, also known as digital marketing, web marketing, online
marketing, search marketing or e-marketing, is referred to as the marketing (generally
promotion) of products or services over the Internet. iMarketing is used as an abbreviated
form for Internet Marketing
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_marketinghttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marketinghttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internethttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internethttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marketinghttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_marketing8/3/2019 Vodafone Idea Report
7/18
Internet marketing is considered to be broad in scope because it not only refers
to marketing on the Internet, but also includes marketing done via e-mail and wireless
media. Digital customer data and electronic customer relationship management (ECRM)
systems are also often grouped together under
internet marketing.
Internet marketing ties together the creative and
technical aspects of the Internet, including design,
development, advertising, and sales. Internet
marketing also refers to the placement of media
along many different stages of the customer
engagement cycle through search engine
marketing (SEM),search engine
optimization (SEO), banner ads on specific
websites, email marketing, mobile advertising,
and Web 2.0 strategies.
Vodafone online promotion was about zoozoo facebook fan page how they had promoted
the launch. Look at the pictures before launch and after launch (on TV).
Promotions on fanpage - before Launch
3.3 Online, after launchAfter the ad was aired on TV, the fanpage had a new visual. The new avatar is loved by all
and the advertisement is very catchy. After a long wait, during the awesome cricket match
between India and England, Vodafone has revealed the much awaited New Avatar of
Zoozoo (their Brand Ambassador) and they officially has released a TV commercial where
the version 2 of ZooZoo with a vodafone 3G logo on it! The Zoozoos 3G character resembles
that of Supermans and RajniKanth which does lots of super power activities!
It shows superman zoozoo, who is Faster (21.1 Mbps), Smarter and Better showcasing
services on Vodafone 3G, but definitely not cheaper!

3.4 VODAFONE 3G LOGO
3.5 VODAFONE WITH MOBILE COMPANIES AD(CO BRANDING ) 3GCo-branding refers to several different marketing arrangements:Co-branding, also called
brand partnership, is when two companies form an alliance to work together, creating
marketing synergy.
Co-branding is an arrangement that associates a single product or service with more than
one brand name, or otherwise associates a product with someone other than the principal
producer. The typical co-branding agreement involves two or more companies acting in
cooperation to associate any of various logos, color
schemes, or brand identifiers to a specific product
that is contractually designated for this purpose.
The object for this is to combine the strength of
two brands, in order to increase the premium
consumers are willing to pay, make the product or
service more resistant to copying by private
label manufacturers, or to combine the different
perceived properties associated with these brands
with a single product.

3.6 VODAFONE 3G VIDEO AD MESSAGEAdvertising is a form of communication used to persuade an audience (viewers,
readers or listeners) to take some action with respect to products, ideas, or services.
Most commonly, the desired result is to drive consumer behavior with respect to a
commercial offering, although political and ideological advertising is also common.
Advertising messages are usually paid for by sponsors and viewed via various
traditional media; including mass media such as newspaper, magazines, television
commercial, radio advertisement, outdoor advertising or direct mail; or new media
such as websites and text messages.
Television ranks second overall to newspapers with 22 percent of all advertising
volume, but it is the leader in national advertising. Television advertising can be
classified as network, national, local, and cable. Television has a significant impact on
potential customers despite its high cost. Mass coverage, repetition, flexibility, and
prestige are other advantages.
8/3/2019 Vodafone Idea Report

3.7 VODAFONE 3G PROMOTION AT MALLS AND THROUGHHOARDINGS
Outdoor Advertising. One percent of total advertising expenditures are on outdoor
advertising such as billboards. Its strength is in communicating simple ideas quickly.
The Michigan Department of Transportation
(MDOT) billboard in Figure 13.9 illustrates this
concept. Other advantages are repetition and
the ability to promote goods and services
available for sale nearby. However, the
message must be
brief, and there are aesthetic considerations.

3.8 Exciting offerings & Promotions
3.9 EXPERIENTIAL MARKETINGExperiential marketing allows customers to engage and interact with brands,
products, and services in sensory ways that provide the icing on the cake of
providing information. Personal experiences help people connect to a brand and
make intelligent and informed purchasing decisions. The term "Experiential
8/3/2019 Vodafone Idea Report
11/18
Marketing" refers to actual customer experiences with the brand/product/service
that drive sales and increase brand image and awareness. It's the difference
between telling people about features of a product or service and letting them
experience the benefits for themselves. When done right, it's the most powerful tool
out there to win brand loyalty.
4. Idea : Launch of 3G ServiceIdea Cellular has launched its 3G services in India in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh,

6.3 Positioning Get Idea 3G No Aabaadi, No Barbaadi because people will be 3G pe Busy
7. 360 Degree Communication ProgramAccording to Mr. Shashi Shankar, CMO of Idea Cellular Our brand campaigns
have always celebrated ideas that have the power to change society and the way we
live. This time, the idea is 3G and it has a strong entertainment appeal. It has been
designed to resonate with the larger audience, on a critical subject looming in the
country.
Idea's ads have typically been about solving large problems through simple
imaginative mobile solutions that might not be possible, but only plausible, in the
real world.
The new ad is yet another addition in the long-running series of Idea campaigns with the
popular tag line
What an Idea, Sirji! The earlier campaigns - Caste War, Education for All, Democracy, Walk When You Talk, Use Mobile, Save Paper, and Break the Language Barrier addressed other societal issues by offering a simple
telephony solution

9. ATL Promotions of Idea 3G9.1 Idea : 3G TV Advertisement CampaignStage 1:
Idea had started off well initially with some noticeably smart ads like What an idea
sirji and Walk and talk.
But 3G services have supposedly proved to be too costly for Idea to spend anything
on the creative department. The first installment of the campaign was launched with
2 Abhisheks conversing foolishly while running on a treadmill, while the third one
beats them in all respects.
Another 3G ad campaign by Idea Cellular features a triplet role for Abhishek
Bachchan (triplet = 3G; Doh!) and opens with one Bachchan blubbering loading...
loading... loading... while staring at his smartphone. And then the second Bachchan
is shown arguing with the first over the slow speed of internet downloading (with
the term No idea splattered throughout the ad). Finally, the third Bachchan enters
and, in quite plain words, offers Idea 3G in fact, he points to each Bachchan and
says, 1G, 2G and 3G.
Stage 2:
Based on the insight that lack of appropriate entertainment is the reason behind
recreational sex and consequent population explosion, Idea Cellular positions its
3G offering as a distraction from procreation.
Furthering its interest in social issues, Idea Cellular's latest TVC positions its 3G
offering as something that can plausibly mitigate the country's predicament of
overpopulation.
The idea behind such a stance is the belief that one of the reasons for India'sexponentially increasing population is the lack of entertainment, other than
recreational sex.
The objective of the campaign is to create awareness about this problem, and to
convey that Idea 3G is entertaining enough to check the same.
The TVC portrays Idea 3G as an exciting substitute for sex.
Titled 'The Idea 3G Population Control Campaign', the ad features brand ambassador
Abhishek Bachchan who is seen promoting product offerings including 3G-based
8/3/2019 Vodafone Idea Report
15/18
mobile applications like mobile TV, gaming, video conferencing, and social
networking on superfast internet.
Following the words '3G pe Busy', 'No Aabaadi, No Barbaadi' that are highlighted in a
soundtrack, the ad leaves viewers with the catchphrase 'No Baby, Only 3G'. The new
ad is yet another addition to the long-running series of Idea campaigns that
characteristically end with the tag line -- 'What an Idea, Sirji'.
The mood of the ad is lighter than any of Idea's previous ads in this series. Yet, it
attempts to establish a connect with the masses by featuring people from various
parts of the country, reacting similarly once their only source of entertainment -- the
television -- is shut down due to a power-cut.
Arun Iyer, national creative director, Lowe Lintas, the brand's creative agency, says,
"We've always used humour as a tactic in order to avoid being preachy. In this ad,however, the reason behind the problem of over-population is funny, lack of other
forms of amusement!"
He adds that this time around, the film is an out-and-out musical, unlike the earlier
ads in which the plots bore a more elaborate set-up of the social problem in
question.
The creative team insists that this ad humorously showcases a "fantasy solution" to a
very real problem. In the past too, Idea's ads have typically been about solving large
problems through simple imaginative mobile solutions that might not be possible,
but only plausible, in the real world.
Sashi Shankar, chief marketing officer, Idea Cellular, says, "Our brand campaigns
have always celebrated ideas that have the power to change society and the way we
live.
This time, the idea is 3G and it has a strong entertainment appeal. It has been
designed to resonate with the larger audience, on a critical subject looming in the
country."
Previous social themes that the brand has chosen to highlight in its communication
include education, caste, democracy, saving paper, and language barriers in India,
amongst others.
The ad film has been produced by Chrome Pictures and directed by Amit Sharma.
A 360 degree communication programme to promote the campaign and drive
awareness, is in the offing.

12. Future IMC and Recommendation Idea should focus on its strategy to penetrate into rural markets where the growth is
maximum
The brand so far has been highlighting the social issues and connecting with telecomrevolution
Idea should continue making such campaigns However, the Ads are losing on its creativity quotient (launch of 3G Ads) which needs
to be looked into
Since the TG is mass population who use mobile phones for communication, Idea willhave to use ATL and BTL promotions
