netCOREâs Missed Call campaign for Hindustan Unileverâs Active Wheel has been nominated for the Best Advertising/Marketing on Mobile at the 18th Global Mobile Awards (GSMA).
The Hindustan Unileverâs Active Wheel campaign was aimed at reaching consumers in the media-dark and rurally deep areas of Maharashtra, Gujarat, U.P, Karnataka, West Bengal and Bihar, â and similar rural states. The crux of the campaign was based on the psychology of the quintessential rural consumer â achieving something at zero cost.

The winners will be presented on Tuesday, 26th February at the GSMA Mobile World Congress, in an afternoon ceremony. In total, 158 nominees have been shortlisted for this yearâs Global Mobile Awards.
