“ Being spotted with a fake LV is suicidal! I’d rather be seen carrying a genuine Hidesign.”
“It would be great if I could rent of those Prada bags! That way I wouldn’t have to burn a hole in my wallet but still get heads turning in a party!”
“ Rent a Louis Vuitton? Sounds Great! Am sure my husband is going to love this idea”
And They Say…

The Big Idea• A sort of a secret society where in our target
audience can rent a luxury bag to go with her outfit for the night.
• The bags range from Louis Vuittons to Pradas, from Tods to a Ralph Lauren!
• The idea is to equip the upcoming socialite and the style conscious working woman with arm candy for her red carpetted evenings.

How Does it Work?• Hushbags kicks off with a stock of 50 bags from
across 12 of the hottest brands on the runway.• HushBags operates through an exclusive website
that displays all the available bags, their rental charges on a weekly basis and an online payment system.
• The ladies can browse through the online store and book a preferable date slot.
• One of our services will include home delivery and pick up of these bags.
![Page 16: Ad Strategy Shweta,Neha](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051411/54598757af79594f558b569b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

• The secret society has an annual membership fee of Rs 10,000 and charges an additional Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,000 to rent a bag for a week. This is rather reasonable, given that Tod's Burgundy Leather Fringe Bag would cost roughly Rs 70,000 !
• Members are friends or friends of friends, no one is let in without a reference.
• Each member has a user name and online password to maintain privacy and anonymity.
