Target Segment:

Womens HORLICKS
Product
Rich in ideal Quality Milk Protein Low Fat No Added Sugars 2 flavors: chocolate and caramel

Price
Rs 100 for 200 gm jar

Women's Horlicks is designed to specifically address the health needs of women providing 100% of the daily requirement of iron, calcium, folate and vitamins B2, B6, B12, and C2. The target segment therefore consists of health conscious urban working women, in metros and mini-metros, between the ages 19-50, leading hectic lives focusing on career and family and hence not able to take care of themselves in the bargain.

Promotion Doctor Engagement Programs

GSKCH also introduced a Doctor Engagement Program wherein the company reaches out to physicians, dieticians and nutritionists to educate them about the product. This in turn, would hopefully lead to an official or at the very least, unofficial, product endorsement by these professionals. Their core strategy lies in grabbing the mind space of the consumers, rather than following the more traditional hard-sell route

Print and television Ads

Konkana Sen Sharma was selected as the face of the urban Indian woman of today, balancing career and home, a choice sure to resonate with most women. This, combined with the baseline, "Because your body needs you too!", starkly elegant in its very simplicity, captures the essence of the brand image GSK is trying to build.

Effects of line extentions

Research suggest no adverse effect on parent brand
All the extensions seem to be well excepted with double digit growth The market share of parent brand has been increasing but if looked from 2 decades otherwise it has been same for last 8-9 years Sales has been increasing steeply (last year 17.8% growth) Divisional shares has been changing indicates switching behavior Line extensions can be anticipated in terms of defending the market share then increasing it

Customer support:
All the extensions were in line with the value of providing nourishment projected by the brand (No deviation) Horlicks has been associated with trust and care (Conformity)

No Brand dilution:
The product category growth has been very high around 14% pa This gave the extensions time and resources' to stabilize any immediate non acceptability The purchaser were not different (In most cases Women in families) thus brand association helped horlicks to get easy trials
