Tanya Dubash, Executive Director and the President, Marketing, Godrej Group commented, “Godrej, ever since it’s prelaunch in April 2008 under the ethos of Brighter Living, has been at the forefront of launching powerful initiatives to engage & delight our consumers. The success of Gojiyo & Godrej Khelo Jeeto Jiyo is a testament to this drive. Carrying the spirit forward, we are happy to bring Godrej Powerplay wherein Godrej becomes the nation’s first brand to foray into mass multi-category loyalty cutting across all types of consumers & 90+ product / brand lines. Godrej Powerplay allows Godrej consumers a chance to participate in the thrill of IPL, create their own teams, win awesome rewards while creating a lifestyle of their own using Godrej products in the process. Godrej Powerplay allows us a chance to engage with consumers on a one on one basis as we seek to delight them.”

How to play the game: Each participant who buys a Godrej product from any of the categories ranging from soaps to furniture will have to sms the ‘Godrej ’ to 09167500100 or call on 09167500100 or log on to www.godrejpowerplay.com. This will help the participant get the name of a cricketer for every distinct product registered along with the value assigned to the cricketer, as well as creating a virtual bank balance. Depending on the real-life performances of the players, their values increase, giving the participants a better chance to win. If a participant is not satisfied with a particular cricketer’s performance and wants to exchange him for another, he can do that on the basis of their values.
