Prega News partners with Grapes to launch new digital campaign
Mumbai: Prega News has rolled out the second leg of campaign #JustTakeTheRest. The brand has previously stated a series of pickle ads bursting the myth by showing that the only way to confirm pregnancy is to take the test.
Conceptualized and executed by Grapes, the fun and quirky campaign subtly explains that there are thousand so-called “indications” of pregnancy but only ‘One’ sure shot way of knowing is to have Prega News, which gives guaranteed quick results to confirm whether or not one is pregnant. So you don’t have to depend on one’s food habits to confirm the good news #JustTakeTheTest today and be sure. The brand has posted interesting creatives on social media, which relates to the audience well.
Speaking on the campaign, Grapes CEO and co-founder Shradha Agarwal said, “It’s a fact that conversations keep hovering when you’re expecting. There are times when people either look for signs or depend on their cravings. Though certainly, such things are part of pregnancy it’s not absolute to confirm one is expecting a child. Hence, it is always better to take the pregnancy test and get a sure shot confirmation. After receiving the objective from the client, we thought of doing this campaign in a fun way, which invokes humour, but simultaneously spread the message. #JustTakeTheTest campaign aims to create awareness among consumers that rather than creating a commotion to share the good news, first get accurate results as it helps in taking the right steps for your little one early on, and helps in seeking guidance from a doctor in the initial stage, before celebrating the news.”
Commenting on the campaign, Mankind Pharma associate vice president Joy Chatterjee said, “The campaign aims to burst the myths around pregnancy. The most common conversations like women craving for pickles, feeling low, gaining extra kilos to establish that it doesn’t specify one is expecting a child. These are all just speculations, which we keep hearing in our lives, or get a lot of advice from people. These connotations should be avoided, and one must not be dependent on myths anymore. The campaign #JustTakeTheTest encourages people to take the pregnancy test, and get rapid, accurate results by switching to Prega News.”
