This partnership introduces a new genre of branded content in the form of a web video series, that reflects the customer centric approach of CommonFloor.

CommonFloor.com, a real estate portal, has partnered with The Viral Fever (TVF) Media Labs to introduce a new genre of branded content to drive customer engagement. The partnership will result in a series of six web-episodes for a web only fiction series called 'Permanent Roommates'.

This is a unique initiative by CommonFloor to create content that people will enjoy and hence drive engagement and conversations with their end consumers. The series started on YouTube on October 29 and has so far completed two episodes. The first episode called The Proposal garnered more than four lakh views, whereas the second episode, The Father(-In-Law), has just crossed three lakh views.
