Total India Delivers Stories Of Ordinary People With Extraordinary Lives With TOTAL HI-PERF Ride For Legends Campaign
Mumbai, February 15, 2018 - Total Oil India Private Limited (TOIPL), a leading international Oil and Gas Company has launched the TOTAL HI-PERF Ride for Legends series– a challenge which sees 4 moto-vloggers discover the un-hailed legends of our society.
TOTAL HI-PERF Ride for Legends is part of an integrated marketing campaign for its new range of high performing motorcycle engine oils for two-wheelers launched in December 2017.
As part of the campaign, Total India collaborated with 4 leading moto vloggers in the country – Oggy F, MSK, Dino’s Vault and JS Films- to deliver stories of ordinary people with extraordinary lives. The vloggers were thrown a challenge to traverse the country and discover people who had gone over and beyond the call of duty to help people in need. From addressing the need for clean drinking water for municipal workers to building shelters for destitute animals to ensuring bad road conditions don’t lead to fatalities and striving to provide education to girls, these everyday citizens have shown superhuman fortitude and determination.
Speaking about the initiative, Gayatri Ojha – VP (Marketing & Corporate Communications, CSR) Total Oil India said, “Through TOTAL HI-PERF Ride for Legends we aim to enhance our presence and engagement through the digital medium. TOTAL HI-PERF Ride for Legends is an interactive composition of branded content, which will target the auto enthusiasts & everyday riders. The campaign will also bring to life how the product not only provides protection and optimum performance to the bike’s engine but also ensures a joy of riding for the biker. This campaign aims to serve the dual purpose of encouraging the biking community to explore our country and discover these unrecognized heroes in our society. These powerful and empowering stories needed a platform and we at Total India are glad to provide them with the same.”
These four incredible and inspiring stories will be LIVE on Total India’s Facebook page from February 14, 2018
Total India will also host an online contest on TOTAL HI-PERF Ride for Legends.
