Holistic Marketing Capture of Demand

Sales
Marketing is not just Branding. For a brand to be successful you need to focus on both, demand generation and demand capture . Many a brands have failed not because of the lack of demand but because of their lack of proper infrastructure to capture the demand.

With first hand experience in Sales, Advertising and Marketing across product categories and industries and having

launched/revived over 25 Nationally successful brands, we at Synergy take a 360 view of marketing. We believe that unless you have the means to convert demand into sales you cannot build a successful, enduring brand. Hence we emphasise equally on building a Sales infrastructure as much as on Branding and creation of demand

Understanding brand dynamics a key to Brand Development & Revival

The first essential for successful revival or New Product development is to understand the dynamics of the brand on a time continuum. Every Brand is in a dynamic balance with the competition and the consumer on a time dimension. Each exert pressure and influence one another. As long as all the 3 players act and respond to each other status quo is maintained. Our experience in reviving brands gives us a unique perspective in understanding the brand environment before attempting a revival course of action

Creating a Brand the 1st Phase


The company

Study
The customer

The competition

The first step in any Marketing exercise is to study and understand the dynamics between the 3 main players the company, the competition and the customer. The Customer the study of the customer briefly involves 5 primary areas Who Buys? Why does he/she buy? Rational and emotional reasons Process of decision making & buying When does he/she buy? Where does he or she buy? What are his/her preferences? price, pack, variants.

The belief that the best quality sells is often not supported by market facts. Evaluation of a product/brand by a customer is non technical. Hence, branding should recognise anf factor in consumer perceptions in product design and communications

Into the Battlefield The 3rd Phase

Implementation Phase III involves the implementation of the plans outlined in Phase I, refined in Phase II utilizing the infrastructure build in Phase III. Although operationally these are shown separately on a time continuum, in actual they merge seamlessly as one continuous series of development and activity. Phase III by its very nature is incapable of being isolated like Phase I & II in terms of the work and consulting need. The tasks primarily involve problem solving, decision making, monitoring, controlling, adapting and reworking plan assumptions. Hence, unlike Phase I & II that can be treated as assignments, the payments during this phase would be on a monthly retainer basis. Phase III completes after the launch implementation is complete or after the end of the contract period or once the client feels that the team is capable and confident of continuing on its own without external inputs.
