Titled "Product Videos Made Simple", the campaign aims to drive awareness on Income's insurance products. Conceptualised by the in-house team in Income, the campaign will run from 8 October to mid-December 2018.Chew said that the Nas Daily channel's style of content sharing will be able to provide a "cut-through" for the insurance brand and products. "Insurance and financial planning concepts can be challenging to grasp. Hence, we are constantly on a look out for refreshing ways to present these concepts and perspectives in clear and entertaining ways that resonate with the masses," he explained. He added that the campaign looks to break away from traditional means of product illustration and explain insurance by drawing “Uniquely Singapore” insights relate to Singaporeans.The first video on its Facebook page, called "RevoRetire" revolves around the concept that Singaporeans have one of the longest life expectancy in the world.
