Becho Bindaas Jeeto Jhakaas: A Target and Achievement Based Incentivization and Reward Program for Retailers

Objective

Coca-Cola aimed to boost sales during the Cricket World Cup season while engaging their channel partners at a higher level. By leveraging the excitement surrounding the Cricket World Cup, the campaign aimed to incentivize retailers to achieve and exceed their sales targets, ultimately boosting Coca-Cola's revenue and strengthening relationships with its distribution network.

Challenges

    1. Motivating retailers to go above and beyond their regular sales targets.

    2. Creating a compelling and aspirational rewards program that resonates with the target audience.

    3. Ensuring a seamless and transparent implementation of the rewards program across multiple zones.

    4. Generating excitement and buzz around the campaign to maximize participation and engagement.

Solution

To address these challenges, Almonds Ai designed a comprehensive and innovative campaign tailored to Coca-Cola's needs:

  • - Cricket World Cup Theme

    Leveraging the immense popularity of cricket in India, the campaign was themed around the Cricket World Cup, capitalizing on the excitement and enthusiasm surrounding the event.

  • - Tiered Rewards Structure

    A tiered rewards structure was implemented, offering a diverse range of aspirational prizes based on target achievement levels. These included high-value items such as Activa scooters, iPhones, LED TVs, backpacks, and smartwatches.

  • - Gamification and Engagement

    The campaign incorporated gamification elements, encouraging retailers to "hit targets" and "score gifts" in a cricket-inspired manner. This creative approach added an element of fun and competitiveness, driving higher levels of engagement.

  • - Rewarding Consistency

    While the top achievers received the most prestigious rewards, the program also acknowledged the efforts of retailers who achieved the base target (1X) by offering smartwatches through a random draw. This ensured that all participating retailers had a chance to win and felt valued
