INDIAN BRANDS DISCOVER
THE POWER OF SOCIAL
MARKETING
Indian companies are getting tech-savvy anddiscovering social media, which has vast resources ofprivate information, as the latest tool for advertising.
Currently, over 100 Indian brands from fields suchas telecommunications, entertainment and digital
media are making their presence felt on Facebookand other forms of social media.
Titan's Fastrack, one of the pioneers in this field, recently recorded over half a millionfans its Facebook page. Since January 2010, the brand's growth skyrocketed, addingnearly a lakh fans every month.
"Brands have always to move with trends and to move with trends means the moveshould be with youth. I feel every brand needs to have online brand strategy," saidSimran Bhasin, Marketing Head of Fastrack.
India has the eleventh highest number of Facebook users, leading more brands to makeuse of the social networking site to lure their target audience.
"Online advertising is a sustainable form of media," Mayank Agarwal, co-founder andCEO of Geek Online Ventures Pvt Ltd, a digital creative and marketing agency, said.
Hoardings have a limited shelf life and remain only in the archives once they are takenoff, but advertising online has no such limitations, which is their biggest strength, headds.
Other than Facebook, there are also other forms of social media at work. Fastrack hasbegun interacting with its young consumers through blogs. The company believes itneeds to use the right kind of platform and should also keep the consumers interested.People were invited to share their pictures, take direct feedback and comments for itsproducts apart from sharing brand related news, developments and celebration with itsfans.

"Though it's long way to go, Indian brands are properly using the social network site tohave the success, In India we have only digital agencies who are doing well in thecreative part of the online marketing. We need more agencies who mainly work inonline marketing, said Bhasin.
Geek Online is one such agency that deals mostly with online marketing. The firm,which was started in 2008, has seen rapid growth in the field of online marketing,Agarwal stated. The company has handled some campaigns for brands such asFastrack, Kingfisher, Britannia and Wipro's E.Go laptops.
The biggest advantage of online marketing is the amount of information available onsocial media, Agarwal said.
As each person signs up for a new campaign or "likes" a page on Facebook, theirinformation is automatically available to the brand, giving them access to the persons
other interests. This information can be used 'profile' each fan, and target futureadvertising campaigns based on their interests.
However, in India most campaigns originate in the offline space and then extend to theonline community, Agarwal said.
Tata Docomo has more than 200,000 fans and has built a strong community throughspecial trials, contests and discussions. Likewise, Vodafone Zoozoo has around 692,000fans with whom the brand connects through pictures, videos as well as contests.
The 'Idea' network campaign has more than 87,000 fans and is highly active andconversational. It includes a lot of contests, campaigns on wall posts. Apart from these,other brands like Amul Butter, Channel V and Cleartrip are actively utilizing Facebookto draw customers' attention to the products.
According to statistics on Facebook, 50 percent of users log into the site each day. Thiswould mean at least 175 million users every 24 hours. Twitter has 75 million useraccounts and LinkedIn has 50 million members worldwide and are still growing.
If it is a business to business marketing campaign, sites like Slideshare, blogs andLinkedIn are commonly used, but for business to consumer Facebook and Twitter alsojoin the group, Geek Online's Agarwal said.
Though the overall usage of social media among the business users is relatively low inIndia, the increasing popularity of social networking among the youth will soon makethis the exclusive spot for advertising, with more campaigns directed only for the onlinemarket.

The Strategy:
SAMSUNG MOBILES CEMENTS SECOND
POSITION
A t last count, the Indian mobile handset space had 35 players and market leader Nokiasaw its market share slipping from 64 per cent in 2009 to 36 per cent in June this year.
According to latest data released by International Data Corporation (IDC), the mainbeneficiaries have been smaller players such as Micromax and Spice Mobiles whichhave muscled their way into the top five clubs. The influx of new brands led to a spurtin the market and saw emerging vendors corner 33.2 per cent of mobile handsetshipments in 2010, the IDC report said.
In the midst of all this, just one player Samsung Mobiles has been able to retain itsrank (second largest) and increased its market share from 9 per cent in the previousyear to 17 per cent in June 2010. Ranjit Yadav, Head of mobile and IT at Samsung, saysthe company is confident of adding another 6-7 per cent market share by the end of the
year.
Thats a long journey for a company which had only anegligible presence in India five years ago. So what led to
the brands growth? Pankaj Mohindroo, president of the Indian Cellular Association,
attributes this to Samsungs ability to carve out its own sweet spots in segments suchas smart phones and touch screen. Also, the company beefed up its quality anddistribution network.
In the touch screen space, for example, Samsung has a portfolio of 23 models rangingfrom the entry-level to the 3G-enabled touch music phones, the Samsung Champ andSamsung Galaxy S. Prices range between Rs 4,250 and Rs 31,500. Galaxy was thecompanys answer to Apples popular iPhone.
The move coincided with a sharp growth in dual- and triple-SIM card slot phones,which have cornered 38.5 per cent of the mobile handset market in India, from less than1 per cent in April-June 2009.
Samsungs dual-sim portfolio now boasts of 10 models in the range of Rs 2,020 and Rs12, 300, Yadav says.
No surprises, therefore, that in the touch screen space, Samsung says it leads the packwith a market share of 30 per cent Samsung, some say, also recreated social networking

handsets with its Corby series. Realizing that Indians are beginning to change handsetswithin 18 months, the accent is on adding new features at a fast pace.
At the same time, the company has embarked on a huge campaign (involving actor
Aamir Khan) to push its phones at the retail stores. Retailers have been guaranteed a 30per cent return on all Samsung merchandise. Large multi-brand stores have Samsungattendants to push the brand.
Analysts expect to see more such social networking-focused phones in future but alsowarn that only those vendors who can balance the right set of functions withcompetitive pricing will appeal to budget-conscious young people. According toInformates mobile tracker, mobile internet browsing commands the highest share oftime spent more than calls and messaging put together in India.
One of the mainstays of Samsung is that unlike some of its competitors, it offers
support on all platforms- Android, bada and Windows7. We recently introduced ourown proprietary Open OS bada in India. We remain platform agnostic and willprovide consumers open OS handsets for them to make their own choice, Yadavexplains.
So, while there is a Galaxy S that scores on account of its features such as the worldsfirst Super Amoled screen and applications such as aldiko and e-book among others,the Wave comes with similar features on the Samsung bada platform.
Value-additions include options for phone customization, by way of online stores, and a
well-oiled after-sales service.
But there are a few problems as well. The main challenge, sources say, is the fact thatSamsungs main competitor now is not Nokia, but smaller players which have a costadvantage by way of taxation as well as quality compromises. Also, the limited batterylife of its phones is a major issue.
Samsung, however, is aware of the problems and is working on it. For example, it haslaunched Samsung Guru Power for the rural markets with a long battery life of2,000mAh providing 22 hours talk time and two months standby time.
