Zeno Group and Origami Logic form global partnership
MUMBAI: Integrated communications agency Zeno Group and marketing signal measurement company Origami Logic announced a global partnership offering brands the ability to manage the increasing complexities of navigating and managing marketing performance data. The partnership allows brands to draw real-time actionable insights by consolidating, refining and analysing marketing signal data across paid, owned and earned media channels into simple, customizable and dynamic dashboards and insights.
The partnership with Origami Logic will help Zeno Group deliver even more comprehensive results supported by data-fuelled approach driven by real-time newsrooms, social amplification, engagement planning, and process management and design.
“Brands need to optimize at every opportunity to drive efficiency of marketing dollars. With this partnership, they can get an unprecedented view into all their ongoing campaigns deployed over a multitude of online channels. This is probably the single most important step in closing the widening gap between data and insights and get the best possible value from marketing spends.” said Zeno Group chief digital officer John Kerr.
“The explosion of marketing signal data and the availability of the data science to refine and interpret these massive data sets is enabling performance-driven marketers to become much more data-driven in how they execute successful campaigns across an increasingly fragmented media and channel mix. Moving to a continuous cycle of campaign execution and optimization enables changes to be made throughout the course of a campaign to deliver a higher return on marketing spend and objectives. With marketing signal acquisition and real-time refinement and analytics at the heart of Origami Logic, we can help capture opportunities at the point of engagement across all channels and media,” remarked Origami Loogic CEO and co-founder Opher Kahane.
“Our partnership with the Zeno Group allows continued delivery of enhanced measurement and insight capabilities to brands looking to connect with customers and respond faster to their engagement moments across channels,” added Kahane.
Extreme changes in the media landscape, including fragmentation, the shift to digital, growth of video, taking a mobile-first approach and an applications driven ecosystem, have paved the way for a new breed of marketers to increase their ability to interpret data and take action on insights across disparate data sources. According to the 2016 State of Marketing report by Salesforce, 63 percent of the marketing teams surveyed will increase spend on marketing tools and technology over the next two years, with the projection for high performing teams being as high as 72 percent. Those companies are more than 13 times more likely to lead in today’s competitive landscape by leveraging emerging marketing technologies.

MUMBAI: A company known for cooling solutions is now heating up its ambitions in the home appliances market. Raj Cooling Systems Pvt. Ltd. has launched a new consumer appliances brand, Agreyas, marking its entry into India’s rapidly expanding home appliances sector valued at more than Rs 1.5 lakh crore. The move represents a strategic diversification for the company, which has traditionally focused on cooling solutions for residential, commercial and industrial applications. Through Agreyas, the firm plans to tap into growing consumer demand for energy efficient and technology driven household appliances.
To build brand visibility, Agreyas has appointed Emraan Hashmi as its brand ambassador. The campaign has been developed under the banner of Zoommantra Productions, with actor and filmmaker Rohit Roy contributing to the creative direction.
The brand’s initial portfolio will include mid premium air conditioners, washing machines, geysers and other white goods designed to cater to modern Indian households seeking efficient and reliable appliances.
Raj Cooling Systems, founder and chairman Kalpesh Ramoliya said the launch aligns with the company’s broader expansion plans.
“The launch of Agreyas is in line with our vision to build a strong presence in India’s consumer electronics and home appliances market. The brand has been developed as a standalone identity to meet the evolving needs of Indian consumers,” he said.
Hashmi said the collaboration comes at a time when Indian buyers are increasingly looking for innovative and functional home solutions.
“I’m looking forward to working with Agreyas at a time when consumers are seeking more innovative and efficient home products. The brand reflects changing consumer behaviour around functionality, innovation and ease of use,” he said.
Raj Cooling Systems plans to invest around 10 million dollars in developing the brand, with an additional 5 million dollars earmarked over the next three to five years for product development and distribution expansion.
Agreyas will follow a multi channel distribution approach, selling through online platforms, retail outlets and dealer networks aimed at both urban and semi urban markets across India.
With the launch, the company is positioning Agreyas as a standalone consumer facing brand while continuing to leverage its existing manufacturing, engineering and research capabilities built through its core cooling solutions business.
