The last thing millions of Indians put on their teeth at night is sugar, and Colgate needed to reach them in that hour rather than in the morning.
The problem is documented by somebody with nothing to gain from the agency winning the work.
How we know
The campaign was built on that finding and scheduled to run between 8pm and midnight, partnering with dessert influencers on Instagram so the surprise ending landed with people already watching food video.
| Who says so | BuzzInContent, quoting the agency's executive creative director, who also says micromanaging influencer content had previously failed. No second report names the agency on this campaign. Read it |
|---|---|
| A second source | No independent second source was found. Searches of the Indian and international marketing trade press returned no separate report naming WPP@CP on this campaign. |
| What the agency was asked to do | Not published as a quoted brief. On record: lead the #BrushTonight influencer campaign, built on the finding that the last thing millions of Indians put on their teeth at night is sugar rather than toothpaste, and placed at dinner time between 8pm and midnight. |
| How the agency was picked | Holding company assignment |
| How that happened | WPP@CP is described as an integrated global WPP team dedicated to serving Colgate-Palmolive worldwide, so the work sits inside a standing holding company arrangement rather than being won in a pitch. No competitive process, rival agencies or fee are named. |
| How long it took | Not found. The interview carries no campaign start or end dates. |
| Recorded as | Colgate India (#BrushTonight) |
