decisions . They favour premium products that demonstrate their achievements to their peers.
Experiencers:Young, enthusiastic, impulsive people who seek variety and excitement. They spend acomparatively large proportion of income on thrill, adventure and doing unique activities
Determine communication objectives
Our communication objective will fall in under the following categories
Brand awareness
The ability to identify the brand (recognition or recall) within the category, in sufficientdetail to make a purchase, it has to stand out and away from the other brands. It has tocommunicate the premium and unque nature of the brand
Brand attitude
Evaluating the brand with respect to its perceived ability to meet a currently relevantneedThe TA should see Kingfisher Blue as something that fulfils their need of feelingliberated, independent and being connected to adventure.
Design communications
The process can be classified under three heads. The decisions that we make aboutthe brand under these criteria determine how the design of communications processwill be.
Message strategy
Out of the various message strategies that we could choose, namely: Sensory,social, rational and ego satisfaction. We have chosen the ego satisfaction messagestrategy. The justification for the sea is given below:
Social:It gives a feeling to the users that they belong to an elite group who are capable of using the premium product. It makes them feel that they belong to the group of people whose idea of fun and liberation is indulging in high adrenaline rush activities.Stylish and sporty, self assured, ambitious, confident, who don’t fear making thoseout-of-the-line choices, crave for fresh experiences like BLUE and its associationwith adventure sports.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/2010c27-sagar-sachdeva-brand-management-kingisher-blue 9/17
Creative strategy:The creative strategy can fall under two heads: Transformational or informational. We choose the transformational strategy, the justification for which is given below
Transformational:It elaborates on a non product related benefit or image. We want it to conveywhat kind of person uses the brand.The message has to be transformational because we seek to establish our brand for the elites. We need not compare it with others. Further, the brand isabout being adventurous, which focuses on how a person feels on beingconnected to the brand instead of using the product.The potential customers need to know that the brand takes them where theybelong, “a group of adrenaline rush loving people”. This is a use of positiveemotional appeal of pride
Message source
We shall use images that connect to adventure sports with people indulging insuch activities primarily being used to make the consumer feel connected to it.Exotic locations and young energetic people, who go to the limit, primarilyconvey the message.
.
Communication channels
It is important that the communication channel we choose should be consistent withthe positioning of our brand. Hence, we need to go for non personal communicationchannels.
Non personal communication channelsThey are communications directed to more than one person and include media,sales promotions, events and experiences, and public relations
Media:it includes print media(news papers, magazines ), broadcast media(TV, Radio) and
network media(telephone, mobile phones, internet)

since, advertising alcohol is banned in India, surrogate means would have to beadopted for this purpose.Eg. KINGFISHER BLUE MILE, KINGFISHER BLUE ADVENTURE HOLIDAYSOur communication channels should be select and must have a premium image in
the minds of our target audience. Hence, the options available to us are: Niche print
and broadcast media, web page and CD ROMs
Events and experiencesIt includes only adventure and youth events that create novel brand interactions withthe customers. In a normal scenario, events can be like sports events, celebrityevents etc. The brand gets associated with these and builds its image around thetheme of the event.
. Marketing Communications MixThe marketing communication mix campaign consists of the following elements:
• Advertisement
• Sales Promotion• Events and Experiences
• Direct Marketing
• Interactive Marketing
• Word of Mouth Marketing
• Personal Selling.
• Publicity and PR
A. AdvertisingWe shall advertise only through select print and electronic media that areabout music, sports and movies, amongst these we will advertise in aselected number of media.
B. Public relations and publicityPublicity will be derived primarily by sponsoring and conductingsports(especially those involving adventure) events and other similar programs where our TA flocks and follows.
C. Events and experiencesWe shall associate the brand with prominent adventure events like mountain
rallies(it is currently being done), biking and hiking expeditionsetc
D. Direct and interactive marketingThis will be done through web pages, where the customers can register andget to know about the brand from a global perspective, events etc
E. Word of mouth marketingThis is an important part of our marketing communications, the peer groupsand generation of buzz through word of mouth publicity can act as one of thegreatest means of spreading awareness about the brand.

Measure results4
We need to measure that what was the result of the communications to increaseawareness, induce trials and building satisfaction
Taking an example of how it will be conducted.
This monitoring has to be carried out on a continuous basis while the promotion is
running
Manage integrated marketing communications
There has to be a rhythm in the process of ending out the communication messagesthrough different channels.For example: When Kingfisher Blue sponsors or gets associated with a mountain
rally or a bike expedition, a buzz has to be built around it in the niche media aboutthe event. Similarly the web content of the Brand’s website should provide details of its involvement and engage the customers in a better way.
SOME OF THESE ACTIVITIES WILL BE SIMULTANEOUS WHILE OTHERS WILLBE SEQUENTIALEg The print media ads and expedition sponsorship have to be done simultaneously,same with web content. The publicity that needs to be built around it is sequential.
