1.1 INTODUCTION OF THE TOPIC:
Promotion is a term used frequently in marketing and is one of the market mix elements.
Promotion refers to raising customer awareness of a product or brand, generating sales,
and creating brand loyalty. It is one of the four basic elements of the market mix which
includes the four P's: price, product, promotion, and place.
Promotion is also defined as one of five pieces in the promotional mix or promotional
plan. These are personal selling advertising,sales promotion, direct marketing,
and publicity. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of the five
factors, and how much money to budget for each.
Three basic objectives of promotion. These are:
1. To present information to consumers and others.
2. To increase demand.
3. To differentiate a product.
The purpose of a promotion and thus its promotional plan can have a wide range,
including: sales increases, new product acceptance, creation of brand equity, positioning,
competitive retaliations, or creation of a corporate image.
The term promotion is usually an "in" expression used internally by the marketing
company, but not normally to the public or the market, where phrases like "special offer"
are more common.
There have been different ways to promote a product in person or with different media.
Both person and media can be either physically real or virtual /electronic.
In a physical environment
Promoters have used newspapers, special events, endorsements, Promotions can be held
in physical environments at special events such as concerts, festivals, trade shows, and in
the field, such as in grocery or department stores. Interactions in the field allow
8
immediate purchases. The purchase of a product can be incentive with discounts (i.e.,
coupons), free items, or a contest. This method is used to increase the sales of a given
product. Interactions between the brand and the customer are performed by a brand
ambassador orpromotional model who represents the product in physical environments.
Brand ambassadors or promotional models are hired by a marketing company, which in
turn is booked by the brand to represent the product or service. Person-to-person
interaction, as opposed to media-to-person involvement, establishes connections that add
another dimension to promotion. Building a community through promoting goods and
services can lead to brand loyalty.
Through media
Promotion can be done by different media, namely print media which includes newspaper
and magazines, electronic media which includes radio and television, digital media which
includes internet, social networking and social media sites and lastly outdoor media
which includes banner ads, OOH (out of home). Digital media is a modern way of brands
interacting with consumers as it releases news, information and advertising from the
technological limits of print and broadcast infrastructures.Mass communication has led to
modern marketing strategies to continue focusing on brand awareness, large distributions
and heavy promotions. The fast-paced environment of digital media presents new
methods for promotion to utilize new tools now available through technology. With the
rise of technological advances, promotions can be done outside of local contexts and
cross geographic borders to reach a greater number of potential consumers. The goal of a
promotion is then to reach the most people possible in a time efficient and a cost efficient
manner.
Promotional activities to push a brand enabling social media channels to spread content
making something viral, such as the advertising by Coke. Using the release of a
new Bondfilm creating attention which then gets promoted across all social channels by
people spreading the information due to excitement. Social media, as a modern marketing
tool, offers opportunities to reach larger audiences in an interactive way. These
interactions allow for conversation rather than simply educating the customer. Facebook,
Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Google Plus, Tumblr and Instagram are rated as some of the
9
most popular social networking sites. As a participatory media cultures, social media
platforms or social networking sites are forms of mass communication that through media
technologies allow large amounts of product and distribution of content to reach the
largest audience possible. However, there are downsides to virtual promotions as servers,
systems, and websites may crash, fail, or become overloaded. With promotion through
participatory media, there is an opportunity to gain Social capital
Promotion is the aspect of marketing that involves delivery of company, brand or product
messages to target customers. Several tools are used by companies to aid the delivery of
both paid and unpaid promotional methods. Each tool contributes a different way to reach
customers and achieve communication objectives.
Traditional Media
Traditional mass-media advertising remains a prominent promotional tool for marketing.
This includes paid messages designed and presented through television networks, radio
stations, newspapers and magazines. Additionally, companies use support media in
ongoing campaigns, such as billboards, directories, buses, aerial and point-of-purchase
displays. Local radio and newspapers tend to be most affordable for smaller companies.
Digital Technology
The Internet and mobile technology have enabled use of a host of digital and interactive
promotional tools. Online and e-mail marketing are common elements of promotional
campaigns. Social media and blogs offer additional interactive tools that companies can
use to reach consumers directly. Mobile devices with applications for electronic
communication and social media allow companies virtually 24/7 access to consumers on
the move.
Public Relations Tools
Several promotional tools tie specifically to public relations, which is unpaid
communication often presented through media exposure. Press releases, newsletters,
press conferences and news reports are common PR techniques. Some are used to
proactively promote brands or products. Others are used to address negative publicity or
10
events. Small companies can often build relationships with local newspapers and TV
stations for coverage of noteworthy business activities.
Events
Sponsoring major events and community activities serve as promotional opportunities for
companies as well. Small businesses often gain public favor by active involvement in
local events. A presence at local fairs, non-profit events and school functions can all
improve your rapport and goodwill with the communities in which you operate your
business.
Salespeople and Influencers
Among the more direct promotional tools are salespeople and influencers. Salespeople are
employees who contact or engage customers using assertive selling techniques. This often
includes asking questions, listening to customer needs and using persuasive efforts to sell
product or service benefits. Peer or professional influencers are prominent people in the
public who favor your product. Companies often ask consumers or professionals to share

2.3 INDUSTRY PROFILE:
Due to rapid urbanization, positive demographics and rising income levels, the Indian
real estate sector has attracted significant investment over the past few years.
The contribution of the real estate sector to India’s gross domestic product (GDP) has
been estimated at 6.3% in 2013 and the segment is expected to generate 7.6 million jobs
this year.
While housing contributes approximately 5%–6% of the country’s GDP, the retail,
hospitality and commercial subsectors have also grown simultaneously, meeting the
increasing infrastructural needs.
Overview of the real estate sector in India
 Sales of residential property declined in 2013 in all metro cities, particularly in the
National Capital Region (NCR), Mumbai and Bengaluru.
 An increase in supply, not commensurate with demand levels, led to an
oversupply situation in most cities.
 The Government of India developed the draft Real Estate Regulation and
Development Bill, 2013, a policy measure to bring in increased transparency in
the sector and protect customer interest.
 In the commercial segment, NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru continue to be the
leading cities accounting for more than 75% of the entire space getting absorbed
in the country in the last two to three years’ time frame.
 Introduction of REIT is likely to have a positive impact on the retail market
segment.
 The retail real estate market appeared to be promising despite global concerns and
economic uncertainty.
 Norms for FDI in multi-brand retail has been eased to attract global retailers.
The draft Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill, 2013 is a policy measure to
bring in increased transparency and protect customer interest.
18
 Proposal worth US$132 million (INR810 crores) was cleared by the Foreign
Investment Promotion Board (FIPB) with regards to single brand retail in the last
6–7 months.
 Domestic travel spends generated approximately 81% of the direct travel and
tourism GDP, with domestic tourist visits (1,036 million) registering an increase
of close to 20% from 2011.
 International tourist arrivals were recorded at 6.6 million in 2012, an increase of
4.3% over the previous year. Foreign Exchange Earnings also increased by 7.1%
over the same period.
 According to World Travel & Tourism Council’s (WTTC) estimates, domestic
travel spending will grow by 6.1%, while international visitor spending will
increase by 8.7% per annum in 2013–15.
 In 2012–13, the SEZ sector contributed 29% of India’s total exports of
approximately US$ 266 billion (INR16.35 lakh crores).
 The development of Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) has set a new
precedent to the development of the logistics and warehousing sector.
Demand for real estate is driven by population growth, personal income, employment
rates, interest rates, and access to capital. The profitability of individual companies
depends on property values and demand, which are both impacted by general economic
conditions. Real estate companies also rely on the supply of investment capital. Large
companies have competitive advantages based on their financial resources and broad
geographic reach. Small companies can compete effectively by focusing on local or
regional markets

ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE OF Earth Infrastructure Ltd:
The company structure deal with the total strength of the company as well as the details
about each and every person’s working details in that particular company. The
organization structure is of two types. They are as follows:
1. CLASSICAL OR TALL TYPE:
When one superior control less number of sub-ordinates, say 3 to 4 subordinates, who in
turns control other 3 to 4 sub-ordinates, and we get a tall structure with many layers of
managers. This structure is called as the tall or classical or pyramid structure. Generally,
this structure involves seven layers. Due to this the communication between the top
management and the employees is not very frequent and therefore creates a gap between
the same. In this type of organization, the cost remains high as in this structure the
organization has to provide each and every thing or one can say the facilities to all the
employees either they are at top level or lower level.
2. FLAT OR NEW TYPE:
In the flat structure, one superior control a large number of sub-ordinates, say 5 to 6,
who in turns control other 5 to 6 sub-ordinates given rise to a flat structure. Training in
the flat structure is relatively weak because there are more number of people. The degree
of control is loose because of more number of people. The advantages in having this type
of structure are in this case the decision making is very fast because everybody is added
to the time. Besides this the communication between the top management and the lower
employees becomes much easier.
Although this method is also somehow expensive as each and every person at work place
is given with the same facilities and amenities that the head of the department or branch
manager is having. And in this type of structure getting the feedback or response of the
20
employees on some decision or implementation becomes very easy and as per that they
can modify the structure or working condition of the work place. Also the employees
remain very motivated as they consider themselves as an important part of the
organization.
In this way, it is confirmed that the company follows the flat organization structure in
order to avoid all the problems that occur due to the miscommunication between the top
management people and the workers there.

CHAPTER-2
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
23
 Erdem and Keane (1996) and Gonul and Srinivasan (1996) establish that
consumers are forward looking. Erdem et al. (2003) explicitly model consumers‘
expectations about future prices with an exogenous consumption rate. In their
model, consumers form future price expectations and decide when, what, and how
much to buy. Sun et al. (2003) demonstrate that ignoring forward looking
behaviour leads to an over estimation of promotion
 Randy Anderson, Robert Fok, Leonard Zumpano, and Harold Elder (1998) This
article measures overall, allocative, technical, pure technical and scale efficiency
levels for a sample of residential real estate brokerage firms using data
envelopment analysis, a linear-programming technique. The results suggest that
real estate brokerage firms operate inefficiently. Inefficiencies are primarily a
function of suboptimal input allocations and the failure to operate at constant
returns to scale rather than from poor input utilization. Regression analysis is
employed to determine which firm and/or market characteristics affect efficiency
levels. The results show that increasing firm size increases efficiency while
choosing to franchise, adding an additional multiple listing service and increasing
operating leverage decreases firm performance.

Modes of promotion used by Earth Infrastructure Ltd.
 Banner/Hoarding: This type of Promotion is commonly seen by Small
agents where they but their banners in the streets and promote their
business to get response from the buyers . If we talk about builders
generally they put their hoardings in the place where more people can
see their Advertisement thus builders mostly don’t put their hoardings
everywhere but they are quite choosy in doing that.
 T.v : Small Real estate agents generally don’t promote their business
though this medium but Builders prefer this medium, as it reaches the
mass builders like DLF, Godrej, merlin group do put their
advertisement in T.V.
 Pamphlets: Small agents promote their Business through Pamphlets
they give pamphlets which consists of their name , phone number ,
address etc . so that the buyers who want to reside in a particular place
can contact them . sometimes it can also be in the form of a visiting
card.
41
 Newspaper : Newspaper is the most common medium through which
both builders and Agents promote their business . this kind of
promotion is widely used and widely accepted as it is user friendly for
those people who don’t use internet .therefore the response is also
quite good through this medium

this study were very busy and did not spare much time in discussion.

to shortage of time I had to limit the work in its present form only.
Lack of Interest: Some of the people were not interested in filling the questionnaire.
43
5.3 RECOMMENDATION
 After doing the research it was found that company should focus on
providing more benefits to their existing as well new client.
 Earth Infrastructure Ltd has got a good brand image as it comes under
Times of India, so the company must put more emphasis on
promoting their portal in local newspapers and print media.
 Builders or promoters who are satisfied with the service of earth infra
should take some reference from them and convert them into their
clients.
 Earth infrashould also introduce promotional activites of low amount
which will bring in more advertisement from agents who have
recently started their business.
 The company should Campaign in the outskirts of Delhi NCR and
provide information how they can be benefited through internet
advertisement.
 as internet advertisement is growing rapidly it should maintain its
goodwill by providing its clients with offers and good after sale
service which can help them bring in more clients.
44

It is one of the four basic elements of the market mix which includes the four P's: price, product, promotion, and place. Promotion is also defined as one of five pieces in the promotional mix or promotional plan. These are personal selling advertising,sales promotion, direct marketing, and publicity. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of the five factors, and how much money to budget for each. Three basic objectives of promotion. These are: 1. To present information to consumers and others. 2. To increase demand. 3. To differentiate a product. The purpose of a promotion and thus its promotional plan can have a wide range, including: sales increases, new product acceptance, creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive retaliations, or creation of a corporate image. The term promotion is usually an "in" expression used internally by the marketing company, but not normally to the public or the market, where phrases like "special offer" are more common. There have been different ways to promote a product in person or with different media. Both person and media can be either physically real or virtual /electronic. In a physical environment Promoters have used newspapers, special events, endorsements, Promotions can be held in physical environments at special events such as concerts, festivals, trade shows, and in the field, such as in grocery or department stores.

Interactions between the brand and the customer are performed by a brand ambassador orpromotional model who represents the product in physical environments. Brand ambassadors or promotional models are hired by a marketing company, which in turn is booked by the brand to represent the product or service. Person-to-person interaction, as opposed to media-to-person involvement, establishes connections that add another dimension to promotion.

  • 17. 17 2.3 INDUSTRY PROFILE: Due to rapid urbanization, positive demographics and rising income levels, the Indian real estate sector has attracted significant investment over the past few years. The contribution of the real estate sector to India’s gross domestic product (GDP) has been estimated at 6.3% in 2013 and the segment is expected to generate 7.6 million jobs this year. While housing contributes approximately 5%–6% of the country’s GDP, the retail, hospitality and commercial subsectors have also grown simultaneously, meeting the increasing infrastructural needs. Overview of the real estate sector in India  Sales of residential property declined in 2013 in all metro cities, particularly in the National Capital Region (NCR), Mumbai and Bengaluru.  An increase in supply, not commensurate with demand levels, led to an oversupply situation in most cities.  The Government of India developed the draft Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill, 2013, a policy measure to bring in increased transparency in the sector and protect customer interest.  In the commercial segment, NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru continue to be the leading cities accounting for more than 75% of the entire space getting absorbed in the country in the last two to three years’ time frame.  Introduction of REIT is likely to have a positive impact on the retail market segment.  The retail real estate market appeared to be promising despite global concerns and economic uncertainty.  Norms for FDI in multi-brand retail has been eased to attract global retailers. The draft Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill, 2013 is a policy measure to bring in increased transparency and protect customer interest.

  • 19. 19 ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE OF Earth Infrastructure Ltd: The company structure deal with the total strength of the company as well as the details about each and every person’s working details in that particular company. The organization structure is of two types. They are as follows: 1. CLASSICAL OR TALL TYPE: When one superior control less number of sub-ordinates, say 3 to 4 subordinates, who in turns control other 3 to 4 sub-ordinates, and we get a tall structure with many layers of managers. This structure is called as the tall or classical or pyramid structure. Generally, this structure involves seven layers. Due to this the communication between the top management and the employees is not very frequent and therefore creates a gap between the same. In this type of organization, the cost remains high as in this structure the organization has to provide each and every thing or one can say the facilities to all the employees either they are at top level or lower level. 2. FLAT OR NEW TYPE: In the flat structure, one superior control a large number of sub-ordinates, say 5 to 6, who in turns control other 5 to 6 sub-ordinates given rise to a flat structure. Training in the flat structure is relatively weak because there are more number of people. The degree of control is loose because of more number of people. The advantages in having this type of structure are in this case the decision making is very fast because everybody is added to the time. Besides this the communication between the top management and the lower employees becomes much easier. Although this method is also somehow expensive as each and every person at work place is given with the same facilities and amenities that the head of the department or branch manager is having. And in this type of structure getting the feedback or response of the
  • 20. 20 employees on some decision or implementation becomes very easy and as per that they can modify the structure or working condition of the work place. Also the employees remain very motivated as they consider themselves as an important part of the organization. In this way, it is confirmed that the company follows the flat organization structure in order to avoid all the problems that occur due to the miscommunication between the top management people and the workers there.

(2003) explicitly model consumers‘ expectations about future prices with an exogenous consumption rate. In their model, consumers form future price expectations and decide when, what, and how much to buy. Sun et al. (2003) demonstrate that ignoring forward looking behaviour leads to an over estimation of promotion  Randy Anderson, Robert Fok, Leonard Zumpano, and Harold Elder (1998) This article measures overall, allocative, technical, pure technical and scale efficiency levels for a sample of residential real estate brokerage firms using data envelopment analysis, a linear-programming technique. The results suggest that real estate brokerage firms operate inefficiently. Inefficiencies are primarily a function of suboptimal input allocations and the failure to operate at constant returns to scale rather than from poor input utilization. Regression analysis is employed to determine which firm and/or market characteristics affect efficiency levels. The results show that increasing firm size increases efficiency while choosing to franchise, adding an additional multiple listing service and increasing operating leverage decreases firm performance.
