Advertising spends are at their peak during the Diwali festive time in India. The period accounts for
11.6% of the Annual Volumes for the Hindi Newspaper in Dainik Jagran’s competitive set.
Naturally, it’s the time of the year when newspapers get into an aggressive ad sales mode.

The category during this period is
commoditized by many newspapers offering huge discounts.
It’s Raining discounts

Media Buyers are practical and left-brained – as is anyone who deals with numbers. But they have a
weak spot – games of chance. Because they are so good mathematically, there is an inherent belief that
they can beat the odds in any game of chance.
The Big Idea : Luring the left-brained to play a game of chance
![Page 6: The gamification of advertising sales for revenue …...The gamification of advertising sales for revenue growth Advertising spends are at their peak during the Diwali festive time](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070809/5f083d737e708231d4210749/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
It is rooted in the cultural belief that during Diwali, it is almost auspicious to gamble as it signifies that you are leaving the doors open for Lakshmi (the goddess
of wealth) to come in.
Gambling then has a widespread social sanction.
A happy coincidence

Gamification of deals!
Instead of a regular festival discount plan we created a unique game. A
game of chance that challenged the left-brained media buyer.

Creating Mystery around the game
To generate curiosity, all communication only invited the buyers to Casino Grande, but did not divulge the details of the deal. To know the deal, the Media Buyer had to sit across the table with Dainik Jagran sales representatives and play the
game. This gave us valuable and uninterrupted time with the buyer during the peak festive period.
