Be A Part of National Advertisement Campaign; Join Infibeam Ad-vent Contest

After a huge success with IIMA organized "Kings of Advertisements" where students from B-schools across India create video advertisements and compete for top spot, Infibeam today announced the start of "The Ad-vent" contest, making participation open for all, and not restricting participants.

Aspiring artists may now make short advertisements using ideas & scripts provided by The Viral Fever, a young Creative Agency for Digital Marketing & Branded Entertainment. The participants may also come up with their own script. The winning entry will get telecast coverage on Television nationally and winning artist will receive cash prize.

Commenting on the event, Mr. Manu Midha, VP, Infibeam.com said, "We are very glad to see the amazing response of the entries received from artists and look forward to some wonderful piece of work from one and all".

"In the age of YouTube, when every consumer can act as a creator, there is nothing better than to open our eyes to, consumers' interpretation of our Brand Story. We are kicked to collaborate with infibeam, who like us, believe in such Creative Experiments. It doesn't get better than this. The viewer becomes the creator!!" said, Mr. Arunabh Kumar, who calls himself the Creative Experiment Officer (CEO) at The Viral Fever.

The thought behind reaching out to people for advertisements is to work with aspiring artists and provide a platform to have their creative work visible on national television.

Infibeam has always tried using such innovative ways of engaging with its customers and using technology for creating new opportunities. Recently, Infibeam was ranked amongst the top ecommerce sites in using social media to reach out to people. This sort of a 'Campaign for a Campaign' is a first by any Brand in any category in India.

Deals once opened will not be repeated. Each of these deals is exclusive to Google Chrome users and cannot be accessed from any other browser.

MagicBox products are carefully selected by a special team of merchandisers who look at user buying patterns, preferences, seasonality, new launches and price while selecting those deals. Each deal is handpicked and therefore is extremely relevant to users today.

Commenting on the launch Manu Midha, VP, Infibeam mentioned, "MagicBox Deals is an extremely popular and a successful concept, it has received an overwhelming response from customers on Infibeam.com. It feels great to have so many satisfied customers. Also Google Chrome is growing in the browser market. Today more than 25% of traffic on our website comes from Google Chrome.
