Smaaash

Brand building and footfalls for a chain of amusement centres

Background

Smaaash is a pioneering chain of amusement centres across major metro cities in India. They offer a wide range of games such as bowling, indoor cricket, arcade games, VR and indoor adventure sports. They also offer a fine dining experience, are a great party venue and an entertainment destination in themselves..

The brand had suffered due to the Covid pandemic and needed help in improving the brand recall and the footfalls to the centres.

What we did
  • A digital marketing strategy was developed to rebuild the brand and the business
  • To drive footfalls, centre-wise campaigns were created and run for about 10 major centres
  • To drive revenue, lead generation campaigns were run promoting Smaaash as a party venue
  • To build brand appeal, a brand campaign was developed
  • We supported the launch of new centres with centre-wise launch campaigns
  • Creatives were developed for the brand's Instagram and Facebook channels
Centre-wise campaigns

Campaigns (creatives with landing pages) were developed to bring in the footfalls. Consumer offers were developed and communicated for each centre. These were sent to the consumers through SMS. Hyperlocal targeted campaigns were run so as to reach only the catchment area of each centre.
