calls this an iconic movement campaign. "At Buffalo Soldiers, we look beyond the idea of topical days. In 2023, marketing campaigns must speak the truth of the masses and urge organic engagement on the basis of relevance and emotion. That's precisely what the #IWasTold campaign aspires to achieve," Chakrabarti said.
"The idea was to take it beyond the individual success stories. In all our lives, irrespective of gender, we're told things that we do not fundamentally believe in. Hence, beginning the journey towards challenging them and eventually proving them wrong. With multiple touchpoints, this campaign goes beyond celebrating women on just one single day. It's what I like to call a movement campaign. It brings us all together," Chakrabarti added.
"Throughout history, women have been told what they can and cannot do. These limitations range from career choices, academic pursuits, and even personal goals. The campaign seeks to raise awareness about these limitations and inspire women to challenge them," said Rohit Prakash, Lead Creative Officer, Buffalo Soldiers.
