So why 7 Ps?
Traditionally, the marketing mix was developed for
the fast moving consumer goods
sector, and there were 4 Ps: Product, Price,
Promotion, and Place (or distribution).
As service sectors have become more aware of
marketing, this marketing mix has
been developed to also include: People, Process and
Physical Evidence.
Even if you think you only sell a product, so the
original 4 Ps will suffice, it can be
useful to think how much of a service element there
is to your business. Indeed, the
goods-service continuum demonstrates that very
few products are purely goods and
very few purely service.
Most of us sell either products with a surrounding
service element (for example, a
customer care help-line for a software retailer) or
services with a tangible element
(the skill of a hair stylist is a service but tangible
products are required to deliver it).
So it could be wise, even for product manufacturers,
to consider all 7 Ps in their
marketing mix.
Product
As seen in the goods-service continuum, your
product can have both tangible and
intangible aspects, and is the thing you offer to
satisfy your customers’ wants and
needs.
Within this element, you need to consider such
things as your product range; its
quality and design; its features and the benefits it
offers; sizing and packaging; and
any add-on guarantees and customer service
offerings.
Price
Sound pricing decisions are crucial to a successful
business and should be
considered at both long-term strategic and short-
term tactical levels.
Within this element of the mix you should consider
list price and discount price; terms
and conditions of payment; and the price sensitivity
of your market. Worth
remembering is the connection of price to your
position in the marketing – specifically
that only one operator in any market can be the
cheapest. Jostling between
competitors for this position is rarely wise.
Promotion
This is the element of the marketing mix that most
people mean when they talk about
‘marketing’. But jumping straight into decisions
about what promotional tools to use
without considering their relationship to the rest of
the mix can be a sure-fire way to
waste money.
There are many different promotional techniques,
each with their own strengths but
essentially they can be broken down into four broad
categories: Advertising; Public
Relations; Sales Promotions; and Direct Selling.
Theses techniques are used to
communicate the specific benefits of your product to
your customers.
Place
Marketers love models that explain the way they
work; they love it even more when
elements of each model begin with the same letter –
hence the use of the word
‘Place’ to describe distribution channels.
Your choice of such channels is important, as is the
variety of channels you use. For
example, a common issue for businesses beginning
to trade on-line is how that will
affect their off-line business, for example selling
directly through the web could
alienate retail outlets that have been the mainstay
of your business in the past.
People
The impact that your people can have on your
marketing cannot be underestimated.
At its most obvious, this element covers your front
line sales and customer service
staff who will have a direct impact on how your
product is perceived.
You need to consider the knowledge and skills of
your staff; their motivation and
investment in supporting your brand. Any element of
the marketing mix will also
have its impact on other elements of your business,
but the people element is one
where the importance of regarding marketing as an
integral part of the way you do
business is crystal clear.
Process
The process part of the mix is about being ‘easy to
do business with’. If you’ve ever
become frustrated at call centres that can’t answer
your questions, or annoyed when
you can’t buy something in a shop because the
computerised till doesn’t recognise
that it exists, even when you can see it on the
shelves, you’ll know how important this
element can be.
The more ‘high contact’ your product, and the more
intangible, the more important it
is to get your processes right. Remember to look at
this from your customers’ point
of view. The process problems that are most
annoying to a customer are those that
are designed for the provider’s convenience, not the
customer.
Physical Evidence
When you sell tangible goods, you can offer your
customer the chance to ‘try before
they buy’, or at least see, touch or smell. With
services, unless you offer a free trial,
your customer will often be buying on trust. And to
help them do so you need to
provide as much evidence of the quality you will be
providing as possible.
So physical evidence refers to all the tangible,
visible touchpoints that your customer
will encounter before they buy, from your reception
area and signage, to your staff’s
clothing and they images you include in you
corporate brochure.
Think about how all the elements of your marketing
mix hang together. Does your
pricing reflect the quality of your product? Does your
choice of promotional tools
reinforce your choice of distribution channel?

RADIO INDUSTRY
Radio has been the most cost effective source of
entertainment in India for a long time. For a long
time, the radio industry was dominated by the state
broadcaster- All India Radio. However, the radio
sector has been gradually liberalized and has been
opened for private and foreign investment. Radio
industry recorded an impressive performance in
2007, having recorded a growth of 24 per cent over
the previous year and is estimated at Rs. 6.2 billion
in 2007, up from Rs. 5 billion in 2006. In the last four
years 2004-07, the radio industry recorded the
second highest cumulative growth of 37 per cent on
an overall basis after online advertising. The radio
industry is projected to grow to Rs. 17 billion by
2011, implying a 28% CAGR over the next five years.
ENIL currently operates radio stations under the
brand name ‘Radio Mirchi’ in 25 cities.
MARKETING PLAN
This Marketing Plan is developed for the brand
RADIO MIRCHI 98.3FM. it is owned by the company
ENTERTAINMENT NETWORK INDIA LTD.(ENIL) ENIL
is promoted by Bennett, Coleman & Co. Limited
(BCCL) which is one of the largest media and
entertainment companies in India, operating in
various media segments such as print media and
television broadcasting.
Before we begin, let’s know a little about Radio
Mirchi. The original avatar of Radio Mirchi was Times
FM, which is probably the most famous radio in India
which began its operation in 1993. Until 1993, AIR, a
government undertaking, was the only radio
broadcaster in India. The government then took the
initiative to privatize the radio broadcasting sector.
It sold airtime blocks on its FM channels to private
operators, who developed their own program
content. The Times Group operated its brand, Times
FM, till June 1998. After that, the government
decided not to renew contracts given to private
operators.
In 2000, the government announced the auction of
108 FM frequencies across India. ENIL won the
largest number of frequencies, thereby acquiring a
national
footprint, and becoming the only commercial FM
broadcaster present in all 4 Metros, with an
exclusive presence in 7 cities. Earlier available in
the seven cities of Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai,
Pune, Indore and Ahmedabad, now it is also available
in key markets of Bangalore, Hyderabad, Jaipur,
Patna & Jalandhar thereby taking the tally to 12
stations across India. It's the largest private FM
Radio operator in the country in terms of number of
operational stations and revenue. 6
Though Radio Mirchi FM radio stations are located
in diverse regions in India it's been successful in
attracting local audiences in each of these markets.
This is largely due to a superior understanding of
audience preferences, which enables it to provide
content customized to the taste, language and
culture of the local audience.

1. Brochure: It is a device to stimulate
customers and motivate them to visit a hotel
and avail of the benefits offered by the
management of the hotel. It is a detailed
publication helping hotel companies in
promoting their business. It is also called as
a pamphlet bound in the form of a booklet. It
describes and illustrates the services made
available by hotels. We find brochure
different to folder in size and contents as
well. It requires careful planning of the
layout, colour and paper used for publishing
the contents. The brochures are supposed to
focus on the theme and messages of
promotion areas. The guests, clients get
detailed in information from the brochure.
2. Folder: Folders are the most commonly used
sales promotion tools. In this respect, it is
essential that folders have an impressive
appearance in totality. The particulars are required
to be in brief but clear. It is a single piece of
illustrated paper that is found less voluminous than
the brochure. The folders are usually printed on a
single sheet of paper and then folded. The quality of
paper and printing used for publication are found
significant to make folders more attractive. The
hotels can use folders for promoting the business.

Travel agents make their money from commissions
received on the sale of tickets and bookings. Since
tickets are fixed in price, the mechanism is simple.
The agency carries a stock of blank tickets and
simply remits the money less the commission to the

For these
reasons international beer companies are coming to
India almost every quarter. Three big international
brands Budweiser, Carlsberg and Heineken entered
India in last 12-15 months. In February this year,
Anheuser-Busch, makers of the legendary
Budweiser, that calls itself the king of beers,
announced its India entry through a 50:50 joint
venture with the Hyderabad-based Crown Beers.
Three months before that, Carlsberg, the beer brand
for soccer fans, announced operations in India
through its venture, South Asian Breweries. Last
year, the Singapore-based Asia Pacific Breweries
picked up a 76 per cent stake in Aurangabad
Breweries, paving the way for the launch of
Heineken into India. There are others like NRI
entrepreneur Karan Bilimoria, who created waves in
UK’s Indian restaurants by marketing Cobra, a less-
gassy beer, also eyeing the market. Even the big
three brands
have siblings. Apart from Heineken, Asia Pacific
Breweries (APB) sells Canon, Baron’s and Tiger;
Crown Beers India unveiled Armstrong; while South
Asia Breweries has introduced Pallone.But Indian
beer market is highly saturated and difficult to break
into. More than 80% ofthe market is controlled by
the two players, UB and SAB Miller. While UB with
brands like Kingfisher, Zingaro and Kalyani Black
has a 48% market share, SAB’s bouquetof acquired
brands- Haywards, Royal challenge, Knock Out and
Foster’s deliver a combined market share of 37%.
According to market analysts international brands
excepting Foster’s have made little impression in
India till date but according to these new entrants
Indian beer market just started to evolve and has a
huge growth potential. Till now the new entrants are
looking at encashing equity with a premium pricing
strategy and they cater to only 30% ofthe market -
the mild beer segment. For remaining 70% market
this players launched multiple new brands that are
competitively priced. However some of the
consultants are not confident about the success of
this marketing mix since Indian scenario is widely
different from other growing markets because of its
immense and diversified geography, huge variety of
social and cultural setup, differential tax regime
across states, are to name a few. Taxes imposed on
alcoholic beverages are very high which make the
competition tougher for new entrants. Currently
spirit manufacturers trying to push forward a policy
change which will exempt beer (especially mild
variety) from high alcoholic tax regime and accept it
as normal refreshment beverage but in Indian socio-
cultural and political scenario this proposal has only
a few takers.

Foster’s
History: Foster’s was established by two brothers
W M and R R Foster’s in the year 1986. SAB Miller is
the parent company which runs Foster’s group, a
premium global multi-beverage company delivering a
total portfolio of beer, wine, spirits, and cider non-
alcohol beverages. In the 70s Foster’s started
exporting to USA and UK and entered the Indian
market in a 1998. Foster’s is considered as a
consumer driven brand.
Place : –
1. SAB Miller has 10 breweries in nine
states
and contract manufacturers in two other states.
2. Foster’s has 24 distributors serving over
5,000 outlets, including over 2,300
outlets in Mumbai.

Sports merchandising: Foster’s always
maintained its position as the Australian brand and
Australia is a multisport country where most of the
sports are very popular and as the country Australia
is very successful in these sports. Fosters previously
maintained its relationship with cricket and other
sports and is now also responsible for different
sporting events. So they could use this to enter
sports merchandising business in India using cricket
as the entry point and then extending into other
sports. They could also use the Australian image to
relate the sporting fraternity of India and Australia
and by this way they could popularise the currently
unpopular sports like boxing, shooting, etc. If this
strategy could be implemented properly it would
make Foster’s unique and give the brand a head-
start.
Limitations:
Findings:
Traditional beer markets in Europe and USA are
either flat or are in a state of decline, whereas India
still has a huge untapped market. For these reasons
international beer companies are coming to India
almost every quarter. Kingfisher, since its origin
proved to be the marketing savvy brand and even
though it was the largest selling beer brand but
when Fosters entered the Indian market Kingfisher
sniffed possible competition and invested heavily in
brand visibility and positioning. Kingfisher changed
its logo and adopted a new logo and tagline,
sponsored the West Indian cricket team and also
used the Indian cricketers to sponsor its product. It
went into airlines, lifestyle and even started a
television channel with NDTV. From our study we
have also suggested some brand extension methods
under, line extension and process extension.
