No Kidding, No Worries - Flipkart Brand Positioning

.
No Kidding, No Worries, the recent advertising and branding campaign of Flipkart is a unique example of “Trap Them Young”.  An in-depth analysis of recent advertisement campaign of Flipkart strongly conveys Indian youth’s sentiments and their desire.  The story board of adverts, feature kids in adult situations (context to adult voice overs), like a beauty parlor, a cafe, and an office. The Hinglish language & the happening places is the heart of No Kidding, No Worries advertisement series.  The creative director succeeds to keep KOOLNESS of Brand Flipkart.

In recent years no single upcoming brand is really concern about their future, they just wanted to cash the current situation. In the decade of 1980-1990, Parle Agro smartly positioning “Mango Frooti” as a kid drink, now those kids are grown up, and Mango Frooti too along with them.  What Mango Frooti enjoyed now … without a question BRAND LOYALITY, What a smart brand positioning, "Trap Them Young”. Brand should think ahead of time while designing Brand Architecture, positioning can be change along with time and brand age.
