The Opportunity

Yoga is a universally accepted way to nurture the body, calm the mind, and enrich the soul. But sometimes, all it takes is a little nudge to get people to tap into its benefits.  

With International Yoga Day around the corner, @TheOfficialSBI saw the opportunity to spread positivity by encouraging people to practice Yoga Asanas (different postures of Yoga). Being the most followed BFSI brand on Twitter, the bank decided to foster #YogaAsanasWithSBI amongst its followers.

The Strategy

The campaign focused on spreading wellbeing by sharing Yoga Asanas that could help de-stress and rejuvenate people. @TheOfficialSBI worked with the Twitter NEXT and ArtHouse teams to create powerful video assets and effectively communicate the campaign message while infusing a breath of freshness into its brand outreach.

Leading the conversation

@TheOfficialSBI kicked off the campaign a week before International Yoga Day by inviting people on Twitter to choose which therapeutic approach they wished to explore — #YogaForTheMind, #YogaForTheBody, or #YogaForTheSoul. In response, users received custom auto-replies that demonstrated relevant Yoga Asanas.

Increasing the campaign momentum

On the launch day, @TheOfficialSBI used Trend Takeover and Timeline Takeover to reinforce the campaign messaging and boost engagement for a 24-hour long period. On International Yoga Day, the campaign closed with a simple yet powerful Tweet which visually endorsed the holistic influence of Yoga and wished everyone a Happy International Yoga Day.
