This Women’s Day, we worked out an inspiring campaign on women’s empowerment in the male-dominated plumbing industry. We created and posted the campaign video on Instagram and Facebook. And it really struck a chord with viewers.
The video went viral, attracting engagement on both platforms. It received thousands of likes and hundreds of shares.
Read this case study to find out how Blusteak did it.
About the Brand
Kelachandra Group, headquartered in Kerala, India, is a well-known manufacturer of top-quality PVC pipes and fittings. It’s recognized for its commitment to producing long-lasting products. Its extensive product range offers customers reliable plumbing and water storage solutions. And its reputation for excellence has made the products a preferred choice among consumers.
Our Challenge
The pipes and fittings industry is primarily male-dominated. We wanted to highlight the power of women. And creating on-brand Women’s Day content for the brand was quite a challenge. We didn’t want to create just any campaign wishing women more success.
The Ultimate Solution
Identified the need to showcase a working woman
We decided to highlight the story of a woman that’s also relevant to our client’s industry. So, we featured the story of Shailaja Ayyappan, Kerala’s first woman plumber. She was honoured by the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship for breaking gender bias.
She is from a tribal hamlet in Sholayar in Athirappilly who made her mark in a male-dominated industry like plumbing. She had a story that could inspire others.
Created a Reel with an inspiring message
Our team created a captivating video featuring the plumber and her journey. It turned out to be emotionally engaging, with an inspiring message of how women can break stereotypes. It resonated with viewers, who shared the video widely, creating a buzz around the campaign.
