Narrated in a humorous and engaging tone the TVC, with 30 and 60 second edits, establishes Myntra as the de facto destination for sportswear. In an era were fitness and health are starting to gain prominence, the Myntra Sport campaign encourages customers to get on their feet and pick a sport of their choice.
Commenting on the campaign, Gunjan Soni, CMO & Head – International Brands Business, Myntra said, “Sportswear has been growing at 45% YoY and is one of the largest categories on Myntra. The Sports Campaign aims to unequivocally establish Myntra as the foremost destination for all your sportswear needs. A unique attribute for this category is need for advice and keeping this in mind we have added some features to assist customers while shopping. We have also created a specialized sports store on the Myntra app to cater to the unique needs of customers and we are seeking to drive awareness for these offerings through this campaign”
Speaking on the occasion, Ayesha Ghosh, General Manger, Taproot Dentsu, said “As an e-commerce platform, Myntra’s edge lies in the width and depth of offerings, as well as the ease with which to access them. To launch their sport offering, we felt this route works best, as it covers the A-Z of sport and makes for an interesting way to display the sheer number of sporting brands that are available on Myntra. It speaks to anyone, whether serious about sport or not. While not the focus of the story, the service aspects of assisted shopping and shoe finder technology convey the required expertise for Myntra to take the high ground on sport.”
