consumer franchise with revenues growing significantly during the quarter.
The business continues to launch new products that deliver various consumer
benefits in the soaps, shampoos and skin care categories.

During the quarter, the business launched 'Vivel Clear 3 in 1' soap which
offers a unique three-fold benefit by providing germ protection,
moisturisation and nourishment. In the shampoos segment, the business
launched the Fiama Di Wills range of hair care treatment in three variants viz.,
'Anti Hair fall Control Shampoo with Conditioner and Serum', 'Colour Damage
Control shampoo with Conditioner and Serum' and 'Total Damage Control
shampoo with Conditioner' which are enriched with rare natural oils and
incorporate damage repair technology. These are being rolled out to select
markets and have been well received by consumers. With continuing
extensions to target markets, 'Vivel Active Fair' fairness cream has garnered a
healthy market share in launch markets. 'Fiama Di Wills' with its new 'Aqua
Pulse Bath Care' line of shower gel and bathing bar and 'Vivel' with its new
product variants - 'Vivel Luxury Crème', 'Vivel Healthy Glow', 'Vivel Sandal
Glow' - rolled out earlier this year, continued to be well received by the
consumer and are being extended to more target markets.
The business' foray into the domestic Talc market with the launch of 'Fiama Di
Wills Face and Body Talc' in select markets has been well received.
The business continues to leverage its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities
and make investments in product innovation, quality and R&D aimed at
delivery of specific consumer benefits. It is also continuously enhancing the
quality of engagement with consumers through efficient deployment of media,
direct contact and promotional activities across conventional and new age
consumer connect avenues.

FMCG are such a market where the level of loyalty remains low and this is
because of many reasons.

Quality as the most influencing factors in the purchase decision while price is
also an important for purchase decision.
Schemes always attract more and more consumers towards particular brand.
Simultaneously it gives idea about the factors which consumers look most in
the product before they make final decision

Price off and extra quantity is the two main offers/schemes which consumers
have came across at the time of purchase

TV as the best media to market the product which will cover majority of the
viewer ship. On the second place it shows news papers as the media to
promote the product in the market

People are not much aware of the schemes which continue in the market it
may be because of the present stock of the product at their place.

Companies need to create sufficient awareness about sales promotion
schemes through mass media in order to create awareness. FMCG products
are low involvement products characterized by switching behavior. Also the
person going to the shop for the purchase of soap is the final decision maker
of the brand. Hence it is essential that companies need to design attractive,
striking, visible POPs for scheme announcements.
With respect to nature of scheme, the finding suggested that premium (free
gift) was popular with companies. While both retailers and consumers
preferred price offs. So it is necessary that the perceived value of a free gift
has to be appealing and high for the target consumers.
Repetitive use of the same premium for a prolonged period may have negative
effect on the loyal customers. When the company is giving its own product
free as premium, it needs to ensure the quality of the product from it as it is
likely to jeopardize the image of both its products.
CONCLUSION



Sales Promotion has ceased to be major differentiator at least in the metros,
with almost all companies offering similar freebies and gifts. As a result now
marketers have to find out some innovative ways of sales promotion to
differentiate from competitors. Currently Price off and Bye one get one free
offers are very effective to attract the consumers towards the products.


We have noted that these kind of promotional tools are useful for short term
increase in sales and to induce first trial. These types of promotional schemes
should be consistent and changed from time to time depending upon season
and competitor’s schemes.


With the Increasing number of supermarket, the branded packaged goods
work as silent sales person. So in such stores, sales promotion plays a more
effective role in stimulating consumers’ demands.



With the increase in disposable income, and due to more health consciousness
lifestyle of consumer, men are becoming more aware of their looks and now
want to spend more on their health and wellness services. Now men are
increasingly becoming conscious and competes equally with women in terms
of looking good.
Fiama di wills positions itself as a premuim brand and caters to diverse target
groups, the men grooming segment is man emerging category and all the
major players are entering into the category.

In the current scenario where there are many players operating in the same
category and increase of consumer wants and needs force the companies to
come up with new and revolutionary products from time to time.



ITC since is a conglomerate entered into this segment with a purpose and to
leverage its brand position and to generate more profits, however it has tough
competitors like HUL, Dabur, Marico, and wipro among other samll
companies.



Almost all the companies are generating profit more from the rural areas than
from the urban cities so ITC in order to increase its presence in the market it
should target the bottom of the pyranid market with different variants by
offering great vaule for money products.

  • 29. In line with ITC's aspiration to be India's premier FMCG company, recognized for its world-class quality and enduring consumer trust, ITC forayed into the Personal Care business in July 2005. In the short period since its entry, ITC has already launched an array of brands, each of which offers a unique and superior value proposition to discerning consumers.

The product formulations use internationally recognised safe ingredients, subjected to the highest standards of safety and performance.
  • 30. Findings from the project: FMCG industry occupies the fourth largest place in indian economy, and Personal care segment is major revenue earner of fast moving consumer goods companies, and with the consumer behaviour changing drastically from time to time, many companies are now focussing on offering quality products at an affordable price. Itc has launched the fiam di wills variant keeping in mind the aspirational urban consumer mindset and it has taken a lead over other competitors in terms of innovation. The company focusses mostly on research and based on that they launch various products, since men grooming segment is growing at a rapid pace, the company has launched fiama di wills men exclusively for men. In terms of awareness, many people are aware as they are doing a massive ad campaigns acros the country. The Personal Care Products business' product offerings under the 'Essenza Di Wills', 'Fiama Di Wills', 'Vivel' and 'Superia' brands continued to gain consumer franchise with revenues growing significantly during the quarter. The business continues to launch new products that deliver various consumer benefits in the soaps, shampoos and skin care categories. During the quarter, the business launched 'Vivel Clear 3 in 1' soap which offers a unique three-fold benefit by providing germ protection, moisturisation and nourishment. In the shampoos segment, the business launched the Fiama Di Wills range of hair care treatment in three variants viz., 'Anti Hair fall Control Shampoo with Conditioner and Serum', 'Colour Damage Control shampoo with Conditioner and Serum' and 'Total Damage Control shampoo with Conditioner' which are enriched with rare natural oils and incorporate damage repair technology. These are being rolled out to select markets and have been well received by consumers. With continuing extensions to target markets, 'Vivel Active Fair' fairness cream has garnered a healthy market share in launch markets. 'Fiama Di Wills' with its new 'Aqua Pulse Bath Care' line of shower gel and bathing bar and 'Vivel' with its new product variants - 'Vivel Luxury Crème', 'Vivel Healthy Glow', 'Vivel Sandal
  • 31. Glow' - rolled out earlier this year, continued to be well received by the consumer and are being extended to more target markets. The business' foray into the domestic Talc market with the launch of 'Fiama Di Wills Face and Body Talc' in select markets has been well received. The business continues to leverage its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and make investments in product innovation, quality and R&D aimed at delivery of specific consumer benefits. It is also continuously enhancing the quality of engagement with consumers through efficient deployment of media, direct contact and promotional activities across conventional and new age consumer connect avenues. FMCG are such a market where the level of loyalty remains low and this is because of many reasons. Quality as the most influencing factors in the purchase decision while price is also an important for purchase decision. Schemes always attract more and more consumers towards particular brand. Simultaneously it gives idea about the factors which consumers look most in the product before they make final decision Price off and extra quantity is the two main offers/schemes which consumers have came across at the time of purchase TV as the best media to market the product which will cover majority of the viewer ship. On the second place it shows news papers as the media to promote the product in the market People are not much aware of the schemes which continue in the market it may be because of the present stock of the product at their place. Companies need to create sufficient awareness about sales promotion schemes through mass media in order to create awareness. FMCG products are low involvement products characterized by switching behavior. Also the person going to the shop for the purchase of soap is the final decision maker of the brand. Hence it is essential that companies need to design attractive, striking, visible POPs for scheme announcements.
  • 32. With respect to nature of scheme, the finding suggested that premium (free gift) was popular with companies. While both retailers and consumers preferred price offs. So it is necessary that the perceived value of a free gift has to be appealing and high for the target consumers. Repetitive use of the same premium for a prolonged period may have negative effect on the loyal customers. When the company is giving its own product free as premium, it needs to ensure the quality of the product from it as it is likely to jeopardize the image of both its products.
  • 33. CONCLUSION Sales Promotion has ceased to be major differentiator at least in the metros, with almost all companies offering similar freebies and gifts. As a result now marketers have to find out some innovative ways of sales promotion to differentiate from competitors. Currently Price off and Bye one get one free offers are very effective to attract the consumers towards the products. We have noted that these kind of promotional tools are useful for short term increase in sales and to induce first trial. These types of promotional schemes should be consistent and changed from time to time depending upon season and competitor’s schemes. With the Increasing number of supermarket, the branded packaged goods work as silent sales person. So in such stores, sales promotion plays a more effective role in stimulating consumers’ demands. With the increase in disposable income, and due to more health consciousness lifestyle of consumer, men are becoming more aware of their looks and now want to spend more on their health and wellness services. Now men are increasingly becoming conscious and competes equally with women in terms of looking good.
  • 34. Fiama di wills positions itself as a premuim brand and caters to diverse target groups, the men grooming segment is man emerging category and all the major players are entering into the category. In the current scenario where there are many players operating in the same category and increase of consumer wants and needs force the companies to come up with new and revolutionary products from time to time. ITC since is a conglomerate entered into this segment with a purpose and to leverage its brand position and to generate more profits, however it has tough competitors like HUL, Dabur, Marico, and wipro among other samll companies. Almost all the companies are generating profit more from the rural areas than from the urban cities so ITC in order to increase its presence in the market it should target the bottom of the pyranid market with different variants by offering great vaule for money products.
