Marketing Strategy
• 1 lakh wet grinders are being manufactured in India
• Over 75,000 in Coimbatore alone
• 80% of this is being sold in southern 4 states
• The balance – North India + Exports
The Scenario
• Organised sector v/s Unorganised sector
• However ELGI’s stand of repute punctures this issue to a considerable extent.
The Marketplace
• Availability
• Accessibility
• Features
• Range
• Cost effectiveness
• Brand
• After sale support
• Goodies
• Bargains and Discounts
Consumer Preference
Consumer = Unlimited choices
Indian Consumer Mind Space
• 60%-70% of Indian population - below the age of 35
• Change in everyday behavior of people, their dreams and aspirations, their career choices and the overall approach to life
• Money Rich, Time Poor
• Dreams are non-linear and are supported by:
High starting salariesEasy availability of finance Ever-expanding choice in consumption
Product - Brand
Appliance - Partner
Choice - Decision
Shifting focus
1980s - Made outside India (Foreign appeal sustained)
1990s - Made in the West(China products downplayed)
2000+ - Made FOR India(Need centric)
Brand Appeal
• Relevant to needs
• Global quality standards
• Recognised by industry
• Easily accessible – consumer friendly
ELGI Ultra perception
• Bears the lineage of the Ultra family
• Trusted and Accepted

Internal - Slimline

Pride+ Competition
Promote Pride+ over external brands and build customer loyalty without cannibalizing the internal brands
Pride+ Challenge
Committed or emotionally loyal customers Active customers who use only the brand’s services and declare that they will use only this in the future and recommend to others
Behaviorally loyal customers Active customers who use only the brand’s services and declare that they will use only this in the future but do not agree to recommend to others
Ambivalent customers Active customers who use only the brand’s services but don’t know which brand they will use in the future
Customer loyalty value-chain
Customer loyalty value-chain
Disloyal reducersCustomers who have reduced or will reduce the percentage of the brand’s services in their usage
LeaversCustomers who declare, that they will certainly leave this brand
Million dollar question – How to transit upwards in the value chain and remain there?
• Product differentiation
• Price differentiation
• Branding activity
• Involvement of consumer
• Sales promotions
• Not in isolation, but in synergy as a foundation to marketing strategy.
Action plan
• Through characteristics to suggest a perceivable difference
• Satisfaction by means of greater performance or need-fit
• Attract loyalty through functional/ symbolic benefits
• Functional benefits – tangible
• Sleek design
• Reliability
• Symbolic benefits – intangible
• Delight at owning the product
• Association with brand personality
Product Differentiation
• Price-led loyalty with sales promotions
• However, pricing may be an indicator of brand quality instigating the consumer to look at other tags
• Hence, optimum price may be used to create a sense of value and not down-pricing in communication
Price differentiation
• To create strong associations that will influence consumers with functional attributes and also with symbolism
• Creating an association through sponsorship
• For example: Maybe be a sponsor at Margali Vizha or allied events across South
Branding activity
• Greater search intention needs to be generated through ideal mix of marketing elements
• Create a trial
• For instance: Introduce Pride+ as a kitchen partner rather than an appliance
Involvement of consumer
• More price-discount led sales promotions = Lesser brand loyalty in category/segment
• Because price-war mindset is induced
• Hence, integrate promotions with overall strategy of the brand
Sales promotions
To create behavioral loyalty AND emotional loyalty thereby inducing a customer to buy into a relationship and not just a product
Task ahead
The communication establishes all functional benefits and reiterates ELGI’s legacy of trust and quality
The adspend can be spread over a sustained period and repeat insertions for better brand recall.
Communication
Typically a homemaker (housewife or working woman)
What does she expect:
Value (Cost-effectiveness)
Durability
Convenience in operation
What else will grab her attention?
Hygiene
Family health
Long life of the product
Hence the communication should be kept simple and direct to address her needs rather than riding high on the horses of creative liberty.
