Project Brief

When Helios approached us, they wanted to create impactful email and WhatsApp marketing campaigns for various occasions. These included:

• Women’s Day

• Indian Regional New Years

• Eid

• Store Notifications

• Gifting Campaigns

• Customer Onboarding

• Birthdays and Anniversaries

Our task was to design creatives and craft compelling messages that resonated with their high-net-worth customer base, striking the perfect balance between promotional and personalized communication.

Target Audience

Helios’ target audience consisted of High Net Worth Individuals (HNIs) who had previously purchased from Titan or Helios. These individuals expected communication that was both sophisticated and personalized, making it essential to ensure that every interaction felt authentic and engaging.

Challenges We Faced

Balancing Promotional Messaging with a Personal Touch: We needed to ensure that while the campaigns promoted offers and store notifications, they didn’t come across as overly sales-focused. The messaging had to feel warm, genuine, and thoughtful, something that resonated with Helios’ esteemed clientele.

Our Process

Our approach was hands-on and collaborative. We worked closely with Helios to understand their brand voice, audience preferences, and campaign goals before diving into the creative process.

Phase 1: Understanding the Brand and Campaign Objectives

We kicked off the project by conducting detailed discussions with the Helios team to:

• Understand their brand’s essence and premium positioning.

• Identify the target audience’s preferences and expectations.

• Map out the specific occasions and objectives of each campaign.

  
  

Phase 2: Drawing Inspiration from the World of Luxury Watches

Helios’ impressive collection of premium watches served as a source of inspiration. We explored their product range, analyzing the intricate designs, unique features, and brand narratives, to ensure that our creatives reflected the elegance and sophistication of Helios’ offerings.

Phase 3: Designing Visually Striking Email Layouts

Our creative team crafted visually compelling email designs that:

• Highlighted the premium aesthetics of the featured timepieces.

• Maintained consistency with Helios’ brand identity.

• Captured attention while conveying the sophistication Helios is known for.

Phase 6: Iterative Reviews and Refinements

We believe in working hand-in-hand with our clients. Throughout the creative process, we maintained an iterative approach by:

• Gathering feedback from the Helios team at every stage.

• Fine-tuning designs and content to ensure alignment with their brand vision.

• Making refinements to strike the right balance between elegance and impact.

Phase 7: Seamless Implementation by Helios

While our team handled the creative aspects, Helios managed the implementation process. Their team used their extensive customer database to schedule and distribute the campaigns, ensuring that each message was delivered to the right audience at the right time.
