Kaspersky

Global anti-virus giant’s massive success story in the diverse Indian market.

the

Brief

Kaspersky has been a client since 2008, and this has been one of our most longstanding relationships. Global cyber security giant Kaspersky entered the dynamic and complex Indian market around a decade ago. Back then, the anti-virus market was not fully developed and hence, Kaspersky had to begin from scratch, beginning with product and brand awareness. There were few technology writers and journalists, as were the readers. With time, as product awareness and demand grew, new players emerged. Kaspersky had to remain competitive and relatable in a foreign market while simultaneously building a local network of partners. Through the years, we have seen Kaspersky grow from a foreign new entrant to becoming the top nationally preferred brand in India, with a robust network through India’s cities and towns. We are proud to have been with Kaspersky from the very first year and continue to learn and grow with them.

the

Strategy

In the initial years, the complete focus was on creating a story around the need for anti-virus, its benefits, and what brand Kaspersky brings to the table
Once the brand started to get popular, two distinct strategies have been maintained for B2B and B2C communication. The two-pronged approach is maintained through the year in order to have clear, customized messaging to both markets
All-year communication program is designed to talk about Kaspersky’s channel partner meets, training sessions, and mainline stories, creating a founder and brand narrative to ensure readers are aware of the tremendous work that’s happening behind the news headlines
Widespread product trials and reviews are conducted to get the technology writers to experience the product first-hand. With great reviews, word usually spreads very quickly

The

Outcome

Over our decade-long association with Kaspersky, it has grown from a new entrant to a top preferred anti-virus brand in India
