Case Study: How the Cornitos IPL strategy drove traffic to their e-commerce store

For IPL 2020, the Cornitos marketing strategy involved driving fans to try their newly launched e-commerce store for buying snacks for the match through a combination of a contest and influencer outreach.

While Cornitos products are available on e-grocery platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, Grofers, Big Basket, Milkbasket, Scootsy, Suprdaily, and Jiomart, the brand began with their own e-commerce store last year. The need was felt against the backdrop of the lockdown. To promote the newly launched pan-India Cornitos e-commerce store, a marketing strategy was built around the IPL fever. #MatchCornJeetega campaign was thus created to draw the consumers towards Cornitos’ products with the use of QR code and influencer marketing. Created by BTB Digital Pvt Ltd, the campaign was instrumental in the Cornitos e-commerce strategy.

The FMCG industry is the fourth largest sector in the Indian economy. Household and personal care products account for 50% of the sales in the industry, healthcare accounts for 31-32%, and food and beverage account for the remaining 18-19%.

Brand Introduction

Cornitos is a Nachos brand in India. It has also forayed into other categories like Nuts & Seeds, Tortilla Wraps, Taco Shells, Dips & Mexican delights to cater to all taste-buds.

Summary

#MatchCornJeetega was a campaign run by Cornitos to promote their e-commerce website & the QR code present at the back of every packet. Through this campaign, the brand wished to reach out to all parts of India and shift the purchases coming from third-party websites to the Cornitos e-commerce website. The brand also wanted to increase the engagement on their social pages, while increasing their follower base.

They had to then like the brand’s official page, tag it and use #MyMatchSelfie & #MatchCornJeetega in the caption. The last part of the task was to tag three friends and encourage them to participate as well. Three lucky winners were awarded a special Cornitos hamper daily.
