MR TO TEST THE CREATIVE OPTIONS

10. LAUNCH STRATEGY
BRAND POSITIONING
• Is the consumers perception of the brand in relation
to other competing brands in the same space
• Is also the specific niche in which the brand defines
itself in a competitive environment with respect to
– Positioning Addresses
– Differentiating Brand Attributes
– User benefits and Trade segments
• Positioning involves the careful manipulation of every
element of the communication mix
BRAND POSITIONING
• Brand Values should stay constant across all
communication channels and touch points
– Airtel : Leadership,

Self Expression

Youthfulness, Pan India Brand,

– Hutch – Has

positioned itself as a simple and premium
brand. It has positioned itself on five core values
• CHOPS” - C-Coverage, H-Honest, O-Open, P Premier, S-Service

– Reliance – “Kar

Lo duniya Mutthi mein” , positioning
themselves as an affordable brand which enables
people to reach out to the world
TELECOM BRAND’S APPEAL
• Telecom brands mainly promise four payoffs to
a consumer
– Connectivity : “Connecting India ” – BSNL
– Enhancement of Life : “Live Every Moment” –
Airtel
– Self Expression : “ Express yourself ” – Airtel
– Empower yourself : “Mujh Mein Hein Woh Baat ”
– Reliance
MARKET LEARNINGS
• There is a complete parity of product and service
across brands
• Even with a particular tariff plan/ loyalty program,
clones appear across brands with very little time
lag
• All products/ services across brands move
towards parity – natural state of equilibrium in
this market
WHAT MAKES THE
DIFFERENCE ?
• Brand Personality
• Consumers choose brands that “fit in” with their
personality - this personality is the reward that
consumers seek and the payoff they buy into
• This buying into “personality” not overt promises an
accepted part of all fashion brands marketing and
advertising
INDIAN EXPERIENCE
• Airtel’s positioning platform may be self expression
– but the reward that consumers buy into is “popular
appeal” – as epitomized by Shahrukh and Sachin

• Reliance’s claimed consumer benefit may be about
self empowerment – “Kar Lo Duniya Muththi Mein”
– but the reason consumers would choose it would be on
account of the personality – something that is still
influenced by Monsoon Hungama, Pioneer Offer – “for
the common man”
INDIAN EXPERIENCE
• Tata Indicom, chose a trait that is already
associated with the Tata name to hone the
personality
– the honest service
– distinct and relevant

• Hutch exemplifies its personality the best

– always has a consistent and well etched out personality
– friendly, contemporary, western, non strident
– In fact there is no overt consumer promise/ benefit the
brand has ever claimed other than its personality
LEARNINGS FOR ESSAR
• A need to understand the personality landscape of
the Indian mobile service brands
– Brands that recognize this truth build consistent and
attractive personalities which is the only reward that
consumers seek

• Etch out a personality that is distinct, consistent and
attractive to our target consumer
• This should be carried through all communication
channels and touch points
PERSONALITY TYPES
• Consideration of some distinct “personality” types

– Urban, ironic ‘take’ on small town India (Mentos, Close
Up)
– The lovable rogue: Just outside the law, but with a heart
of gold - Munnabhai MBBS
– Entertaining :Either larger than life Bollywood tamasha
entertaining (Vanilla Coke) or gentle humor (Kelvinator)
– Have a youth icon, like Sanya Mirza, symbolizing a
challenger (as a late entrant into the market)
– Loyal/trustworthy offering a serious commitment
– Excitement / thrills : about stimulation/ fun – (the josh
machine)
– Love/ intimacy/ belonging /Family
– The patriot
– Appealing to a consumers Intelligence
TYPES OF BRAND
DIFFERENTIATORS
• Instant karma –
promotions)

Immediate effect, Instant gratification/benefits (connectivity, service,

•

Emotional – Play on feelings related to family, love, camaraderie, friends

•

Indianess – Reflection on Indian values/culture. Capitalizing on the inherent
preferences

•

Feature based – Capitalizing on a feature based gap. Creating a unique identity in
terms of a technological feature or a service

•

Network/Coverage – Stay Connected, whenever, wherever you are!

•

Loyalty – Projecting a transparent image to induce trustworthiness

•

Youth – Projecting a young at heart image, a go-getter, a challenger

•

Convenience – “FREEDOM FROM DISCOMFORT”

– Understanding the consumer and providing convenient need based services
– Approachable and flexible
CONVENIENCE – AN ESSENTIAL DIFFERENTIATOR
