To help increase tourism footfalls into South Africa pre, during and post ICC T:20 Cricket World Cup 2007. The Indian Cricket was at an all-time low as the Indian Cricket Team had not qualified in the second round of the ICC ODI World Cup in West Indies a few months back. This was a new cricket concept of 20 overs and was also the Inaugural ICC T:20 Cricket World Cup, so the challenge to market this international global event across India was massive.
BBH stood up to the challenge and unleashed a one-year multi-dimensional marketing campaign across India that directly reached out to the target audience; the well-travelled upper income group, passionate about sport and travelling. The promotions unfolded in 36+ cities across India’s most prestigious sporting clubs, corporates and institutions, with four mega events in four of the most prestigious metro city sporting clubs of India. Our pan-India efforts in promoting T:20 and South Africa resulted in a record 9,000 Indians making it to South Africa in and around the ICC T:20 World Cup 2007. Further, South African Tourism created a connect and a strong recall with over 9,00,000 of its immediate targets set across India, resulting in numbers from India swelling year on year.
