Social marketing can be a single idea or it can be a cascade of many ideas that are campaignable. Tata Tea Jaago Re is a single idea. An idea that attains relevance during election time in a big way. This single idea can be used in different ways altogether. The joy of this idea lies in the fact that tea is a wake-up stimulant.
