BRANDING THE MASKS



It just struck me
that the face masks
being used today
are in great demand
in my poor country
and may provide
a branding opportunity
to companies which wish
to promote their products.
If corporates could market
all their products
by printing on the masks
and advertise across
the face of the masks.
The cost of the masks
could then be brought down
and its reach
extended to the poorest
of the poorest
who would benefit greatly
while also providing publicity
for these brands.
Pity that Corona Beer
cannot advertise
for alcoholic beverages
cannot advertise
in my country
Guess my idle mind
has to just shut down
and something else to do find
or else get kicked
by you my dear readers
now, I know I’m effed
for being Consistently Crazy

It just struck me that the face masks which are being used currently in huge numbers could provide a branding opportunity. Brands can advertise across the face of the mask...

These masks are in great demand in India and if corporates could market their brands by printing on the masks the cost of the masks could be brought down and its reaching the poorest of the poor would be increased while also providing publicity for these brands...

Actually pharma cos, hospitals & medical equipment cos can advertise on masks and even if they don't want to distribute free they can give it to NGOs at cost price and enable the poor in urban & rural areas to protect themselves at low cost...

For ex, a mask marketed currently at 100Rs can be made available to the poor at Rs 15 or so...

Any takers?

Looks like Corona and self imposed seclusion is making me crazy Lol...
