Editor's Notes

  • #23 Kellogg’s breakfast cereal was never able to give “idli, dosa” of Indians. Indians have the habit of taking hot milk and Kellogg’s flakes were for cold milk. So it couldn’t maintain that crisp feel in flakes!!! Though it changed, the image had been gone and it could never revive back till now!!! Talking about FIAT, their cars UNO were used as passenger cars as taxis and so on with “Reliable and Sturdy” image. But in India, car is mostly once in a lifetime or very very few in a lifetime investment so people wanted more of “luxury and style” factors. So FIAT UNO changed its positioning later. Pizza Point, was a local company in India which thought of giving a competition to the MNC’s. But it failed miserably. Reason being – People liked foreign food (Pizza) from foreign companies (Domino’s etc)!!! Secondly Pizza Point made there USP at Pizza at low price, but that also failed because Indians hardly had much of Pizzas. It was once in a time delicacy usually during some celebrations. So at that time people didn’t mind spending more !!!
