CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
Marketing:
“The process of ascertaining consumer needs, converting them into a product or service
& then moving the product or service to the final consumer or user to satisfy such needs
& wants of specific customer segment or segments with emphasis on profitability,
ensuring the optimum use of resources available to the organization.”
“Marketing is so basic that it can’t be considered a separate function. It is the whole
business seems from the point of view of its final results that is from the customer’s point
of view Business success is not determined by the producer but by the customer.”
According to me marketing means, push the product to the market & pull the
customer towards the business. We can say that the main aim of the marketer is to convert
the want of the customer to the need of the customer. “Thus marketing job is to convert
societal needs into profitable opportunities. Hence, Marketing occupies an important
position in the organization of a business unit. It is one of the important line activities of
business operation. It consists of the ownership of goods. Goods are not complete
products until they are in the hands of the customer. It is the process by which products
are made available to the ultimate consumers from their point of origin. It consists of all
those activities, which are meant to ensure the flow of goods & services from the
producer to the consumer. Therefore, marketing thinking must start with a crystallization
of needs of consumer segment of which the efforts will ultimately be aimed. In terms of
needs, the product or service must be developed or improved so that ultimately the
product satisfies such needs of the consumer segment involved.
Today marketer, have to take tough decisions because today’s market place is
venomously more complex. Domestic markets, at one time safe from foreign invaders are
now the happy hunting grounds of giant global corporation as well as global niche
specialists. Major strides in technology have considerably shortened time & distance.
New products are launched & astonishing pace are available worldwide in a short
time. Communicating ones media are proliferating new distribution channels & formats
keep appearing. Competitors are everywhere & hungry.

Marketing Mix :( 4Ps OF MARKETING)
Marketing mix is a by-product of customer oriented marketing approach. After

identifying the market & gathering the basic information about it, the next step in the
direction of market programming is to decide upon the instruments & the strategy for
meeting the needs of the customers & challenges of rival sellers.
According to W.J. Stanton, “ Marketing mix is a combination of four elements such
as product, pricing structure, distribution system & promotional activities used to satisfy
the needs of an organization’s target market & at the same time achieves its marketing
objectives. Every business enterprise has to determine its marketing-mix for the
satisfaction of the needs of the customers. Marketing mix represents a blending of
decision in four areas product, pricing, promotion & physical distribution. These
elements are inter-related, because decision in one area usually affects action in the
others.
Marketing mix is marketing manager’s instrument for the attainment of marketing
goals. It is composed of four ingredients, i.e., (i) product (ii) price (iii) promotional
activities (iv) distribution. These elements constitute the core of marketing system of a
firm. A marketing manager implements his strategies & policies through these
instruments.

6|Page
Marketing mix represents a blending of four elements namely product, price,

promotion & distribution. Determination of marketing mix is an important decision
which the marketing manager has to take. The basic purpose of marketing mix is to
satisfy the needs & wants of the customer in most effective manner. As the needs of
customers & the environmental factors change, marketing mix is also changed.
Sale Promotion:
Sales promotion is one of the 5 aspects of promotional mix. (The other four parts of the
promotional mix are advertising, personal selling, direct marketing and publicity/public
relations.) Media and non-media marketing communication are employed for a
predetermined, limited time to increase consumer demand, stimulate market demand or
improve product availability. Examples:
1. Under the crown (UTC)

2. Refilling.
3. Point of purchase displays
4. Rebates etc.
Sales promotions can be directed at the customer, sales staff, or distribution channel
members (such as retailers). Businesses can target sales promotions at three different
audiences: consumers, resellers, and the company's own sales force. Sales promotion acts
as a competitive weapon by providing an extra incentive for the target audience to
purchase or support one brand over another. It is particularly effective in spurring product
trial and unplanned purchases. Most marketers believe that a given product or service has
an established perceived price or value, and they use sales promotion to change this
price-value relationship by increasing the value and/or lowering the price. Compared to
the other components of the marketing mix (advertising, publicity, and personal selling),
sales promotion usually operates on a shorter time line, uses a more rational appeal,
returns a tangible or real value, fosters an immediate sale, and contributes highly to
profitability. Activities, materials, devices, and techniques used to supplement the
advertising and marketing efforts and help coordinate the advertising with the personal
selling effort. Sweepstakes are among the best-known sales promotion tools, but other
examples include special displays, coupons, promotional discounts, contests, and gift
offers.
My subject of study is that how the company’s promotional

schemes stimulates the products demand and how the retailers response over scheme,
what nature of the outlets (i.e. seasonal &non-seasonal), how they know about
promotional scheme (i.e. through SMS, salesman, CE etc), whether the outlets prefer to

sell RGB [Regular glass bottle], PET [plastic bottle], CAN, Acquafina mineral water,
Leher soda.
OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
 To know the sales promotion tools used by PepsiCo Company.

SCOPE OF STUDY
Scope of study on PepsiCo India Ltd, the area of the study is CTC. In the duration
of study and project period, I observed that the market response of PepsiCo Product is in
good position, but sales volume is not at par. The Sales promotion policy of our company
is affected due to competitor’s Marketing strategy.
1. I prepared questioners on sales promotions to know the response of current promotion

packs given by company to retailers in the market.
2. Through this project, I will come to know that which type of promotional scheme
outlets want.
3. I can easily know how the sale promotion affects the “Annual Sales volume”.
4. We can know the percentage of exclusive and mixed outlets of PepsiCo India products.
5. We can know the nature of outlets. (i.e. Seasonal vs. Non seasonal).
6. We can know the reaction of the outlets owners towards promotional schemes.
7. Future forecast of sale after getting sale promotion to the outlets.

Hence we can say that, a well planed & future oriented sales promotion will give a
good sales volume.

Limitation of the study
The major limitation of the study was that the depth study in the subject could not
be done because of limited time.
The other limitations are:
 The company doesn’t declare all the data & the internal data are kept confidential.
 Though every sincere & possible effort has been made to collect the data, some
retailers were uncooperative in providing the actual data.
 The project is done in CTC may not represent the figure of the whole India.
 Since the data collected was representative based the accuracy is questionable.
 Some questions created confusion among the respondents.
 The respondents were not interested to fill up the questionnaire due to lack of
interest.
 The sample has taken only 20 respondents. They may not represent the whole
population.
 Lack of secondary data Collection of the recent brochures, in house journals, etc

Introduction to Industry:
BEVERAGES INDUSTRY
Soft drink was started with the idea of quenching the thirst of the persons
traveling. It was also felt that reliable good water was not available everywhere. So

13 | P a g e
people would rely on their packed bottle and with the idea it made these drink available
mostly at these place where water was not available is on highways and long distance
train.
Slowly and slowly with its beautiful tests these become very poplar and they are
not only available in the markets and street corner but also people have started keeping it
in their houses.
Parle export Pvt. limited is regard as the first Indian company introducing Limca a
Lemon drink Complimentary to their well entrenched gold spot in 1970. The credit of
popularizing the soft drink goes to coca cola this was the drink, which was linked, by all
ladies, gents and children.
Now a day, the soft drink for quenching Thirst but it looks more often they are
taken of habits.
Gold spot is considered as the first branded soft drink established.
Soft drinks market in India

Non-alcoholic soft drink beverage market can be divided into fruit drinks & soft
drinks. Soft drinks can be further divided into carbonated & non-carbonated drinks. Cola,
lemon & oranges are carbonated drinks while mango flavor comes under non-carbonated
category. India is one of the top five markets in terms of growth of the soft drinks market.
The per capita consumption of soft drinks in the country is estimated to be around 6
bottles per annum in the year 2003. It is very low compared to the corresponding figures
in US (600+ bottles per annum). But being one of the fastest growing markets and by the
sheer volumes, India is a promising market for soft drinks. The major players in the soft
drinks market in India are PepsiCo and Coca-Cola Co, like elsewhere in the world. Coca-
Cola acquired a number of local brands like Limca, Gold Spot and Thums Up when it
entered Indian market for the second time. Pepsi Co’s soft drink portfolio also consists of
Miranda and 7Up along with Pepsi. The market share of each of the company is more or
less the same, though there is a conflict in the estimates quoted by different sources
The major ingredient in a soft drink is water. It constitutes close to 90% of the soft
drink content. Added to this, the drink also contains sweeteners, Carbon dioxide, Citric
Acid/Malic acid, Colors, Preservatives, Anti Oxidants and other emulsifying agents, etc.
The market in India is slowly moving from non-alcoholic carbonated drinks

to fruit based drinks and also to plain bottled water. Soft drinks market in India grew at a
slower rate in 2003 and 2004 compared to 2002.In 2004, with 12% growth volume
reached over 3.0 billion liters. However, the growth rate marked a slowdown from just
below 17% in 2002. This poorer performance stemmed mainly from slower growth
within carbonates. Bottled water and 100% juices continued to expand at robust rates,
appealing to the health conscious.

The Manufacturing Process
The process of manufacturing of aerated water (Soft Drinks) & fruit Juice under
PepsiCo Brand is divided into mainly five parts such as:
 Water Treatment
 Syrup Making
 Bottle Washing
 Filling
 Crowning & Coding
 Testing of the product
Water Treatment:
Water Treatment is very essential in soft drinks plant as the nature & quality of water
varies from place to place. To set uniform & standard water the process of treatment is
carried on. The water taken from bore well by the help of water pump & pipe lines are
collected in a storage tank where is pre-chlorinated by chlorinate & then by the help of
pipelines comes to a treatment tank called coagulator tank where this water solution of
different strength of bleaching powder, ferrous sulphate, hydrate line are added through
dosing pump to reduce alkalinity, hardness & kill the bacteria. A mechanical stirrer mixes
the chemical & then the suspended water settles down as sludge & clean water passes
through retention tank. From this tank, the water passes through sand filter containing
fine sand & pebbles & carbon filter contains granular carbon & finally through water
polisher, micron filter, UV lamp to ensure clear & sanitary water for use. Further water
used in the bottle washer & boiler needs softening. For this purpose the water from
storage tank, after passing through two filter beds containing fine sand & granular carbon
happens.

21 | P a g e
Through a bed of resin where it is softened, this soft water is essential for use in bottle
washer to reduce scale formation inside the machine.
Syrup Making:
For syrup making of a particular brand, collect quantity of sugar, water activated
carbon (Powder) & Hyflow super cell known as filter aid are taken into a sugar
dissolving tank which is specially designed making a vacuum space to enter steam & also
fitted by a motor with agitator. Sugar syrup called raw syrup is prepared by developing
the sugar with continuous stirring & heating by steam supplied by oil-fired boiler. This
hot syrup with the help of a pump is filtered through a filter press attach with a series of
quality filter paper to separate out carbonated particles.
Bottle Washing:
Bottle Washing is an important part in soft drink plant. The emptied durable &
returnable bottles are used & returned from market in plastic crates are fed to bottle
washing machine. The machine double end system with circular chin to carry the bottles
caustic soda, tri-sodium phosphate & sodium-gluconate are added to the caustic tank
filled in with water heated by steam supplied by the boiler. The empty bottles enter to the
hot caustic tank in one end & after being cleaned by the hot caustic solution & finally
washed with water through spray-jets fitted are discharged in other end. Then washed
bottles pass on conveyor chain against laminated board for further inspection in the
direction filling machine.
Filling:
Finished syrup &treated water line are connected to a dosing pump which mixes
syrup & water with the ratio of 1:5 & syrup mixed with water entered to carbonated tank
to mix with carbon dioxide gas are preserved in cylinder for use. The cylinders are
connected through CO2 manifold tank to use requisite quantity of gas. The syrup passes
through PHE, which is cooled itself by circulation of chilled, glycol supplied chilling
compressor. To run the machine F-22 gas is used. The syrup being chilled easily mixes
with CO2 gas & enters to the filter for bottling. The filter is fitted with filling valves & lift
Cylinders.
Crowning & Coding:
After beverage is filled in bottles it immediately goes to the crowner where with the
help of crown crock the bottles are sealed to protect the carbonating, flavor, outside
contamination & spoilage till the contained beverage is consumed.

22 | P a g e
Then sealed bottles passed on the conveyor chain are coded by a coding machine on
their way to out end. The sealed bottles are inspected properly against inspection light
while passing through the conveyor fitted with SS chain. The empty plastic crates passing
through a conveyor enter to crate washer machine & it is washed & moves through the
conveyor where finished products are accumulated. Then the products are kept in plastic
crates, which are durable in nature & returnable by buyer, put on palates & sent to
shipping for shipment.
Test of Products:
Finally the finished syrup during bottling is tested in laboratory to meet the
permanent & also to get standard & quality products.

A. Literature Review
B. Theoretical Framework
Literature Review
Sales:
Sales are the activities involved in selling products or services in return for money
or other compensation. It is an act of completion of a commercial activity. The "deal is
closed", means the customer has consented to the proposed product or service by making
full or partial payment (as in case of installments) to the seller.
Academically, selling is thought of as a part of marketing, however, the two

disciplines are completely different. Sales often form a separate grouping in a corporate
structure, employing separate specialist operatives known as salesmen (singular:

27 | P a g e
salesman). Sales are considered by many to be a sort of persuading "art". Contrary to

popular belief, the methodological approach of selling refers to a systematic process of
repetitive and measurable milestones, by which a salesman relates his offering of a
product or service in return enabling the buyer to achieve his goal in an economic way.
A sale is completed by the seller, the owner of the goods. It

starts with consent (or agreement) to an acquisition or appropriation or request followed
by the passing of title (property or ownership) in the item and the application and due
settlement of a price, the obligation for which arises due to the seller's requirement to
pass ownership, being a price he is happy to part with ownership of or any claim upon the
item. The purchaser, though a party to the sale does not execute the sale, only the seller
does that. To be precise the sale completes prior to the payment and gives rise to the
obligation of payment. If the seller completes the first two above stages (consent and
passing ownership) of the sale prior to settlement of the price the sale is still valid and
gives rise to an obligation to pay.
Sales techniques
The sale can be made through:
i. Direct Sales, involving person to person contact

a. Buying Facilitation Method
ii. Pro-forma sales
iii. Agency-based
a) Sales agents (real estate, manufacturing)
b) Sales Outsourcing through direct branded representation
c) Transaction sales
d) Consultative sales
e) Complex sales
f) Consignment
g) Telemarketing or telesales
h) Retail or consumer
iv. Door-to-door or traveling salesman

28 | P a g e
v. Request for Proposal is an invitation for suppliers, through a bidding process, to

submit a proposal on a specific product or service. An RFP is usually part of a complex
sales process, also known as enterprise sales.
vi. Business-to-business — Business-to-business sales are much more relationship based
owing to the lack of emotional attachment to the products in question.
Industrial/Professional Sales is selling from one business to another
vii. Pharmaceuticals Sales
viii. Electronic Web — Business-to-business and business-to consumer
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a set of standards for structuring
information to be electronically exchanged between and within businesses.
ix. Indirect, human-mediated but with indirect contact Mail order
Sales and marketing relationship
Marketing plays a very important part in sales. If the marketing

department generates a potential customers list, it can be beneficial for sales. The
marketing department's goal is to bring people to the sales team using promotional
techniques.
Advertising
Sales promotion
Publicity
Public Relations.
In most large corporations, the marketing department is structured in a
similar fashion to the sales department and the managers of these teams must coordinate
efforts in order to drive profits and business success. Driving more customers "through
the door" gives the sales department a better chance by ratio of selling their product to the
consumer.
Promotion
It involves disseminating information about a product, product line, brand, or
company. It is one of the four key aspects of the marketing mix. (The other three
elements are product management, pricing, and distribution.) Promotion is generally sub-
divided into two parts:

29 | P a g e
i. Above the line promotion:

Promotion in the media (e.g. TV, radio, newspapers, Internet andMobile Phones)
in which the advertiser pays an advertising agency to place the ad.
ii. Below the line promotion:
All other promotion. Much of this is intended to be subtle enough that the
consumer is unaware that promotion is taking place. E.g. sponsorship, product placement,
endorsements, sales promotion, merchandising, direct mail, personal selling, public
relations, trade shows The specification of these four variables creates a promotional mix
or promotional plan. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of
the four subcategories, and how much money to budget for each. A promotional plan can
have a wide range of objectives, including: sales increases, new product acceptance,
creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive retaliations, or creation of a corporate
image. An example of a fully integrated, long-term, large-scale promotion are and Pepsi
Stuff.

2. Improving the market performance of middle men and sales people.
3. To attract new customer.

19. To help the retail to move the merchandise

Types of Sales promotion

31 | P a g e
Consumer Sales Promotion

Sales promotions targeted at the consumer are called consumer Sales
promotions. Consumer sales promotions are steered toward the ultimate product users—
typically individual shoppers in the local market. Following are some of the key
techniques used in consumer-oriented sales promotions.
Consumer sales promotion techniques:

1. Price deal: A temporary reduction in the price, such as happy hour
2. Loyal Reward Program: Consumers collect points, miles, or credits for purchases
and redeem them for rewards. Two famous examples are Pepsi Stuff and A Advantage.
3. Cents-off deal: Offers a brand at a lower price. Price reduction may be a percentage
marked on the package.
4. Price-pack deal: The packaging offers a consumer a certain percentage more of the
product for the same price (for example, 25 percent extra).
5. Coupons: coupons have become a standard mechanism for sales
promotions.
6. Loss leader: the price of a popular product is temporarily reduced in order to stimulate
other profitable sales

32 | P a g e
7. Free-standing insert (FSI): A coupon booklet is inserted into the local newspaper for
delivery.
8. On-shelf couponing: Coupons are present at the shelf where the product is available.
9. Checkout dispensers: On checkout the customer is given a
coupon based on products purchased.
10. On-line couponing: Coupons are available on line. Consumers
print them out and take them to
11. Mobile couponing: Coupons are available on a mobile phone.
Consumers show the offer on a mobile phone to a salesperson for redemption.
12. Online interactive promotion game: Consumers play an interactive game associated
with the promoted product. See an example of the Interactive Internet Ad .
13. Rebates: Consumers are offered money back if the receipt and
barcode are mailed to the producer.
14. Contests/sweepstakes/games: The consumer is automatically entered into the event
by purchasing the product.
15. Point-of-sale displays: Products or posters are kept near the billing counter to remind
about the product.
Trade Sales Promotion:

Sales promotions targeted at retailers and wholesale are called
trade sales promotions. Trade sales promotions target resellers wholesalers and retailers
who carry the marketer's product. A trade
sales promotion is targeted at resellers wholesalers and retailers who distribute
manufacturers' products to the ultimate consumers. The
objectives of sales promotions aimed at the trade are different from those directed at
consumers. In general, trade sales promotions hope to accomplish four goals:
1) Develop in-store merchandising support, as strong support at the retail store level is
the key to closing the loop between the customer and the sale.
2) Control inventory by increasing or depleting inventory levels, thus
helping to eliminate seasonal peaks and valleys.

33 | P a g e
3) Expand or improve distribution by opening up new sales areas (trade promotions are
also sometimes used to distribute a new size of the product).
4) Generate excitement about the product among those responsible for selling it. Some of
the most common forms of trade promotions profiled below include point-of-purchase
displays, trade shows, sales meetings, sales contests, push money, deal loaders, and
promotional allowances.
Trade sales promotion techniques

i. Trade allowances: short term incentive offered to induce a retailer to stock up on a
product.

product.
iii. Trade contest: A contest to reward retailers that sell the most products.
iv. Point-of-purchase displays: Extra sales tools given to retailers to boost sales.

vi. Push money: also known as "spiffs". An extra commission paid to retail employees to
push products.
vii. Trade discounts (also called functional discounts): These are payments to
distribution channel members for performing some function.
Merits of Sales Promotions:

1. It stimulates in the consumers & attitudes towards the products.
2. It creates a better incentive in the consumers to make a purchase.
3. It is a demand creator.
4. It gives direct inducement to the consumer to take immediate action.
5. It is flexible.

34 | P a g e
Demerits of Sales promotions:

1. Sales promotions are only supplementary devices to supplement
selling efforts of others promotional tools.
2. Sales promotions activities are having temporary and short life.
3. Brand image is affected by too many sales promotions activities consumer are of the
opinions that due to the lack of popularity and over stocking of products of a company
these sales promotional activities are conducted.
4. Discount or rebates are allowed by boosting the prices of the goods.
5. An immediate increase in demands is stimulated by this it is expensive and leads to a
rise price of the products.

THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK
Above literature review give the information about the sale, promotion, and sale-
promotion relationship, type of sale promotion, merit & demerit of sale promotion. From
the type of sale promotion I considered only the “Trade sales promotion” because my
scope of study restricted to the trade only. There is the various sale promotion techniques
is there such as [1] Trade allowances: short term incentive offered to induce a retailer to
stock up on a product. [2] Dealer loader: An incentive given to induce a retailer to
purchase and display a product. [3] Trade contest: A contest to reward retailers that sell
the most products. [4]Pointof- purchase displays: Extra sales tools given to retailers to

35 | P a g e
boost sales. [5] Training programs: dealer employees are trained in selling the product.
[6] Push money: also known as "spiffs". An extra commission paid to tail employees to
push products. [7] Trade discounts (also called functional discounts): These are payments
to distribution channel members for performing some function. But, every trade
promotional activity is not effective due to the following reason:
1. Schemes not accepted by the customer, and

2. Scheme is not received by the customer.
First of all I decided to prepare the questionnaire according to my topic

with the help of different book & collected information from the magazine & then
decided to walk in for the direct interview from the owner of the outlets of 40 different
stores. Next step, I decided to take a random sample of 20 outlets which is the
representative of the whole population. Then, prepare table from the collected
information & also represent those numeric figure on different chat with the analysis.
Then I decided to write finding & then conclusion of the project report.
CHAPTER: 4
 Data Analysis

36 | P a g e

37 | P a g e
1. Nature of Outlets
The survey revealed that about 90% of the total outlets are non seasonal,
that means they sale PepsiCo product throughout the year. And rest 10%
outlets are seasonal.

38 | P a g e
2.Type of outlets:
From the above figure it is clear that out of 20 outlets, 9 Outlets are
exclusively Pepsi (PSI) counters, another 5 outlets are of mixed type & the rest 6
outlets are exclusively Coca-Cola (CCX) counters.

39 | P a g e
3.FOCUS BRAND
From the above study I knew that most of the outlets focus on glass bottles (RGB).
Other few outlets focus on PET, CAN, Mineral Water or Soda.

40 | P a g e
4. KNOWING ABOUT SCHEME
From this figure it is clear that most of the outlets get

information about the promotional schemes from the salesman of the company.
Rests of the outlets get information by SMS, Customer executives or any other
sources of information.

41 | P a g e
5.TYPES OF SCHEMES
The above figure shows that the regular promotional scheme is very much popular
because the retailers want permanent income throughout the year. They also like
various promotional schemes such as UTC and Scratch card .Incentive based
scheme is not much popular because in this scheme some target is given to the
owners of the outlets.

42 | P a g e
6. PROMOTIONAL SCHEME RECEIVED BYOUTLETS
UTC, Refilling & Scratch card Scheme is most popular & known scheme received
by maximum outlets .Gift and Discount /Rebate schemes are not received by
maximum outlets because they have some conditions to be fulfilled for getting it.

43 | P a g e
7. PROMOTIONAL SCHEMES APPRECIATED BY THE

OUTLETS
After the survey, I came to know that the retailers appreciate mostly two types of
promotional schemes i.e. UTC & Refilling because; here the owners get Benefits
of the scheme from sales person on the spot of purchase.

44 | P a g e
8.Promotional tools Available at different outlets
From the survey I observed that PepsiCo provides various types of

promotional tools to the outlets. The company has provided VisiCoolers and
Signboards to maximum outlets but, the supply of Racks and POS Display is
not so significant though they can increase sales volume.

45 | P a g e
9. Effect of promotional Schemes on Purchase Behavior of Retailers
According to the Survey it is found that maximum retailers want to

purchase more products when promotional offers are given to them even
if they have a large stock.

46 | P a g e
10. Promotional expenses throughout the year
During summer (Mar-June) the demand for cold drink is high so

PepsiCo reduces the promotional expenses and at rest of the period
promotional expenses is high due to low market demand. During the
winter season (Nov-Feb) promotional expenses is maximum.

47 | P a g e
11. Factors affecting sales growth
From the above survey it is clear that sales promotion activity such
as high margin, more schemes & heavy advt. has a large impact on sales
growth.

48 | P a g e
12. Reaction of Outlets on overall marketing activities of PepsiCo
Most of the outlets are satisfied but some of the outlets report insufficient
supply of products and delay in redressal of customer grievances such as repair of
Visi Cooler etc.

49 | P a g e
CHAPTER - 5
 Finding
 Suggestion
 Conclusion

50 | P a g e
Findings

Suggestion

51 | P a g e
1. Company should give knowledge to the salesman about the

promotional Scheme so that they can better understand the
importance of promotional activities.
2. There should be a regular meeting between distributor & company
about the implementation of sales promotion.
3. Fast repairing of ViSi Cooler will gain the faith & goodwill of the
customer.
4. Company should provide racks to more outlets to keep Pet bottles
for display.
5. Company should adopt the promotional activities properly and not
in a trial and error method.
6. Company should arrange training or Seminar programs for retailers
to make them aware about the company’s sales objective and
enhance their selling ability.
7. Company should provide more profitable schemes so that the
retailers can happily accept it.
8. Company should spend more on Promotional schemes on the
weaker products like Pepsi, M.dew etc to boost up Sales.
Conclusion
SALES PROMOTION is a promise made to the consumers & retailer by
the company. Sales promotion, not only has Functional and Mental dimensions but
also Social and Spiritual dimensions. The challenge in front of Indian organizations

52 | P a g e
today is to first understand and then satisfy the needs of the customers. The needs
of the customers today are experiences and not just the products. The Indian
Organizations have to concentrate on delivering the experiences to the customers
leading to satisfaction and association with all the dimensions of the brand. These
experiences can be delivered by involving the customer in the supply chain which
demands improvement from the organization in terms of training the employees
and aligning the culture to deliver value to the
customers. The participation of the customers can be ensured by using novel
methods of communication and branding. The Profit and Sustainability of Indian
Brands will depend on how efficiently and quickly the organization can adapt to
these new demands of the customers.
