We had reported on the Smarties earlier in the week, but this one deserves special mention. Ventes Avenues and Tanishq bagged a gold for their innovative collaboration at the MMA Smarties last week. Ventes won the creative award for Best Brand Experience in Mobile Rich Media.

Said Gaurav Midha, Head- Digital Marketing at Tanishq: “We are delighted to win the award. Tanishq has always aimed at providing the best for its customers and this fascinating initiative is one such approach in achieving this objective. Consumers had the option of browsing through multiple jewellery pieces with just one click. The real-time customer experience strengthened the retail connection between the brand and our consumers; a transformative step on how India will shop and purchase jewellery in the near future.”

Added Fauzan Rahim, Co-Founder Ventes Avenues: “We at Ventes Avenues are happy to have partnered with Tanishq on this amazing campaign on the MEITU camera app in India. Wining an award is always very special, it demonstrates that our work has stood out and left a mark in the minds of a distinguished jury. The focus was to deliver User Engagement using AR filters especially to entice users to virtually try the jewellery and share their selfies wearing Tanishq jewellery with friends & family. 4.9 Mn pictures taken during the one-month campaign is a huge feat and we hope this paves the way for other brands to consider this platform.”
