EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Kara is a brand name of Wet wipes from the house of Grasim Industries, Aditya Birla
Group. Among its different variants, Refreshing facial wipes are the most selling wipes in
the consumer market and is also a potential product for gifting done by various
Corporates.
Pharmaceutical manufacturing companies was my target account where I had to show
them our product , state its advantages over conventional wipes and tell them how our
product can help the doctors associated with companies. Since the major pharmaceutical
companies are already our client, my main emphasis was on smaller pharmaceutical
companies based in Delhi. On the basis of my survey, it was clear that our product was
appreciated as a better product than others in terms of quality. However, very few
companies showed positive response. The reasons for this are
Small scale pharmaceutical companies tend to be more price sensitive, thus they
were not able to afford our product at companys discounted prices.
29% of the local pharmaceutical companies visited said the perceived value of
product wont be much by doctors.
21% companies were not happy with the discount schemes offered to them
Four Five Star Hotels, four car showrooms and four hospitals were also targeted
where it could be given as a gift to their guests/visiting doctors. However the
management policy didnt allow the product to be used as a gift.
Only about one third of the total respondents have seen Karas advertisement on
television; thus they were not much aware about the brand.

PURPOSE OF STUDY

The objective of project was To take measures for maximizing sales opportunities and
develop long-term relationships with Corporates for Kara wet wipes. Thus, approaching
potential customers in person, introducing our products to them and reminding them until
they give a formal response was our priority task. However, along with it, a primary
research work was also done to supplement the field work.

Context of Study
Out of all the companies visited, pharmaceutical companies held the priority. Very few
visits were appointment based, whereas cold calling was the prominent method
employed. Most of the worthy interactions were with companies having corporate offices
in Delhi. Many of them had corporate offices adjacent to manufacturing facility in
industrial areas. The Product managers and Marketing managers handled Doctors gifting
program on behalf of the company. Samples were showed to them along with briefing
about the product. Free samples were given to companies who showed good level of
interest in Kara. The questionnaire was pre-designed and during conversation, the
questions were disguisedly asked. After the meeting, the questionnaire was filled up on
the basis of replies which were extracted from the managers.

Significance of Study
The research work gives us an idea as to what difficulties Kara is facing in spite of being
a very good quality product. It gives a scope of improvement to rethink on some
marketing aspects like better discount slabs, refining target customers etc. The companies
which have showed positive interest can be reapproached with better offers. Since the TV
advertisement campaign for Kara is gaining momentum, aggressive selling can be
practiced to offer Kara as an innovative gifting solution by Corporates.

Chapter 1:
INTRODUCTION



Overview of Wet Wipes Market

Disposable wipes have evolved into a global business concept generating more than $ 6
billion in sales a year. Achieving strong double-digit growth year after year, the category
now assumes a major role in the personal care market.
Spanning from make-up removal and deodorant wipes in personal care to floor and
furniture cleaning products in household care, disposable wipes have gradually expanded
to offer a wide range of new applications, replacing the traditional combination of cloth,
cotton and cleaning solution. Changes in trends in the wipes market have also been
driven by new product developments and the positive reception of new product
applications by the consumer.
The global market for wet wipes continues to grow, although it is important to be
cognizant of the challenges that will present great difficulties to many. Those companies
that can combine cutting edge technology with the development of new and innovative
ideas will survive in the long run. The wipes in India are generally made of Viscose and
Spun lace. Birla Cellulose manufactures 98% of the Viscose Staple Fiber in India, so it is
poised to do well against other local players as they would have to purchase VSF from it.
In the last 3 years there has been an explosion in the number and types of wipes available
to the consumer. From baby wipes and facial wipes to disinfecting wipes, posing as a
much better substitute than conventional cloth and liquids. In a fast paced world, these
wipes are designed for convenience, whether that is for your own personal use or to deal
with the unhygienic conditions for your family.
The disposable facial wet wipes market is estimated at Rs 8 crores. Kara holds a
dominant position in market with turnover of Rs. 4.5 crores thus capturing 56% of the
market. However the sector in India is currently fragmented and unorganized. Ginni
filaments (Noida) also hold a strong position in wet wipes market, though their product
cant be matched in terms of quality to Kara.


In the US and Europe, 6 to 10 per cent of the income is spent on disposable products. In
India, it is 0.0001 per cent. Worldwide, wet wipes are a $6-billion category, but in India,
its in a nascent category. It is considered as a lifestyle item and not an essential one, so it
will take a while before full potential is explored.
Consumer awareness about hygiene products increased as a result of increasing
advertising, price reductions and the launch of cheaper variants by manufacturers over
the latter half of the year.
Skin Care wipes also benefited due to the faster pace of life in cities and the rise in the
number of nuclear families and working women, who tend to rely more on disposable
products when working in the kitchen or whilst travelling outside of the home.
The leading market research agency KSA TECHNOPAK conducted a market survey &
discovered that there is a huge untapped potential for wipes in India. According to the
survey after Delhi NCR, Chandigarh is the biggest market for cosmetics in North India
The disposable wipes market in India faces stiff competition from cheaper Chinese
imports. The Chinese wipes are not of good quality and can have adverse effects on skin.
However they capture the attention of price sensitive people. But with increasing
consciousness about quality, gradually people will shift to a better product like Kara.



Summer Internship Profiles

There were four profiles offered for our summer internship out of which we had to
choose one depending on our area of interest. All the profiles fall under their marketing
and sales department, thus required us to interact with various people varying from
marketing managers, retail shop owners to customers at shopping malls. I chose
Corporate Sales management, because this profile required interacting with people at
various managerial levels in corporate and enhance my knowledge by observing and
refining my skills with every new interaction. The profiles are discussed as below:
1) CORPORATE SALES MANAGEMENT
Kara wet wipes have emerged as one of the most useful and preferred gifting in many
Corporate and Institutional Segments for various occasions viz. Gifts to Doctors/Business
Associates/Clients, Brand Promotion, Merchandise for Trade promotion & Consumer
Schemes, Office amenities, Conference & Seminar amenities , Tool for providing better
Customer/Guest experience etc. In profile of Corporate Sales, we had to target the clients
for bulk purchase of our product, offering them discounts and customization of our
packaging to promote their brand.
The corporate sales can be divided into eight different sectors which are:
i) Aviation: Every airline gives a small kit to their passengers which have some utilities.
Among these utilities, wet wipes are also given which gives a refreshing feeling to
passengers coming in flight after long check-in queues and security hassles. The wipe is
given in a single sachet which has customized printing as per airlines requirements. The
shelf life of these wipes are around 6 months after which they start getting dry however
can still be used without any worries. Currently, Kara wipes are being supplied to
Kingfisher and Jet Airways. Talks are on with Indigo airlines and very soon they will be
using our product in their flights.


ii) Pharmaceuticals: Many pharmaceutical companies which have manufacturing and
marketing in domestic market do gifting to Doctors to promote their brand and maintain
good relations with Doctors. The gifting may range from pen, key chains to laptops and
other luxurious items. The companies buy in bulk with customization options and keeps
on changing their gifting portfolio every season. Wet wipes are a smart gifting option as
they are different from conventional items, easily customizable and have usefulness in
summer season. Generally these companies buys 10s and 20s pack with their brand
name on resealable sticker. Some of our clients are DR. Reddy, Torrent, Pfizer, Panacea
Biotec, Wockhardt, Ranbaxy, Fresenius Kabi, Abbot, Blue Cross etc.
iii) Hotels, Restaurants and Catering (HORECA): In hospitality sector, Hotels are a prime
constituent which offers numerous amenities to its guests. When the guests arrive at a
Hotel, they are greeted with complimentary drinks. Wet wipes can be given to guests so
that when they come from outside to Hotel, they can use it to clean their face giving them
a pleasant feel. These wipes can also be kept in there on a daily basis when housekeeping
staff cleans the room. Single customized sachets can be used here. The wipes can also be
pitched for caterers in marriages, high profile events, Sport events etc. They can offer
single sachets to guests as a welcome gesture. In Hotel industry, Taj Vivante, Chariot
Beach resort, Intercontinental Mumbai are our prestigious clients.
iv) Tour and Travels: Since wet wipes are very commonly used product in foreign
countries, when tourists come in our country they need such product to fight off the
tropical weather in summers. Tours and Travels prepare kits for tourists of which wet
wipes can become an important part. Single sachets or 10s pack can be used by tours
operators for their kit. Kuoni Travels (Gurgaon) is our client in this sector.
v) Auto and Allied: Car service centres and showrooms can gift wet wipes to its
customers as a token of goodwill and to retain customer loyalty. In summers, car owners
generally use dry tissue papers in their cars. With the growing awareness of wet wipes,
they are realizing the advantage of wet wipes over dry tissue. The Automobile OEMs or
allied industries do gifting for various distributors and dealers in their distribution


channel. Kara wet wipes can be used by them for their brand promotion as they can
customize 10s and 20s pack with their brand name on it. Right now we are in talks with
Michelin tyres and hope to close the deal soon.
vi) Service: Hospitality sector is incomplete without Spa, Saloons and Beauty Centres.
Apart from refreshing wipes, other variants like Make-up removal wipes , Toning wipes ,
Moisturizing wipes, Cleansing wipes can be used here as a replacement of conventional
cotton ball and lotions. VLCC buys Kara products to offer a pleasant experience to its
customers.
vii) Consumer Goods and durables: In FMCG sector, Kara products can be used as in
product promotion (Bundle packing along with their product) and Trade promotion
(gifting for channel partners). It can also be given as gifts to consumers buying expensive
durables like Air conditioners, Microwaves etc. Some of our clients are Whirlpool and
Dabur.
viii) Retail: In premium retail outlets, guests are treated warmly and are offered with tea
or coffee as a kind gesture. Single sachet wipes can be given to guests when they enter
showroom so they it can lighten up their mood and give them a happy feel. This product
should be pitched at showrooms where conversion rate is high. Jewellery showrooms,
outlets having expensive watches, furniture, mobile phones etc. can be targeted for our
product. Amongst them Titan is our esteemed client.

2) MODERN TRADE MANAGEMENT
Modern trade management deals with malls and shopping complex where thousands of
customers come daily to buy household items. Kara is available at almost every mall in
Delhi however internees under this profile have to check daily inventory levels of
product, its placing as compared to competitor products, visibility, customers reaction on
seeing the product etc.



3) GENERAL TRADE MANAGEMENT
In this profile, all the small retail shops are focused where the internee had to see if Kara
is already available with them, are the retailers happy about the response of the product,
sufficient inventory levels are maintained etc. Also there were many retail shops which
didnt have any wet wipes and were apprehensive about keeping our product. The
internees had to market their product to such retailers and clarify any doubts which
retailer has about the product.
4) MARKETING RESEARCH
This profile is a pure marketing research based where the internee has to ask respondents
to fill up a pre-designed questionnaire thus fulfilling his given objective. The internee
was given a place like a mall or a market where he had to intercept potential respondents
and request them to take part in his research. Though sample size is not pre-determined, it
should be such that some substantial results could be interpreted.



General Electric Nine Cell Matrix

Relative position of Kara in Wet wipes industry
Interpretation
Kara holds a dominant position in organized wet wipes market evaluated at Rs. 8 crores
of which Kara has a turnover of Rs. 4.5 crores (56%). This share is depicted by the grey
area shaded in circle, whereas, the full circle represents the total market.
Since wet wipes are a new concept, they are at an introductory level. But with the
increasing awareness of hygienic needs, people are showing very positive response.
Therefore it has been placed under high industry attractiveness region. The circle falling
in green region means that the company should invest more and grow its brand to hold
more strong position in the growing industry.

GRASIM INDUSTRIES LTD.

Grasim Industries Limited is a Aditya Birla Group company that started in 1948 and
which started as a textile manufacturer. Since then Grasim has successfully diversified
into Viscose Staple Fiber (VSF), cement, sponge iron and chemicals. It is the worlds
second largest producer of Viscose Rayon Fiber with about 21% market share. Textile
and related products contributes to 15% of the group turnover. Grasim is headquartered in
Nagda, Madhya Pradesh and also has a huge plant at Kharach, Gujarat.

GLOBAL FOOTSTEPS
Indo-Thai Synthetics Company Ltd was incorporated in 1969 in Thailand, started in
1970; this was Aditya Birla Groups first foray into international venture. Aditya Birla
incorporated P.T. Elegant Textiles in 1973 in Indonesia. Thai Rayon incorporated in
1974, this was the second company in Thailand, operating in Viscose Rayon Staple Fibre.
Century Textile Co. Ltd. Is taken over by Aditya Birla Group in 1974; this company is a
weaving and dyeing plant manufacturing and exporting variety of synthetic fabrics. PT
Sunrise Bhumi Textiles incorporated in 1979, it produces Yarn which is exported to over
30 countries in 6 continents. P.T. Indo Bharat Rayon incorporated in 1980 produces
Viscose Staple Fibre in Indonesia to become a dominant player in domestic market as
well as export markets. Thai Polyphosphates and chemicals was started in 1984 in
Thailand to produce sodium phosphates, presently merged with Thai Epoxy and Allied
Products Limited Company (1992), Thai Sulphites and Chemicals Company Limited
(1995) to form Aditya Birla Chemicals Ltd. This company supplies to sectors such as
food, textiles, electrical and electronics, composites, leather, plastics and automobiles. PT
Indo Liberty Textiles was incorporated in 1995 to manufacture synthetic spun yarn.


Focus of Growth Post MFA
In late 1990s and later, the focus was the textile business because of the end of Multi-
Fibre Arrangement (MFA) which opened a host of opportunities to Indian exporters. In
this period, Aditya Birla Group took a three route strategy for growth.
Rapidly enhance existing capacities
Acquire and build garment brands for local and international markets
Jayashree textiles was acquired by Aditya Birla Nuvo (formerly Indian Rayon), is a
leading producer and exporter of yarn and fabrics to 50 countries with a turnover of $413
million. It acquired Madura Garments in 2000 to enter the branded garments business. It
has brands like Louis Philippe, Van Heusen, Peter England, Allen Solly, SF Jeans among
others and also a supplier to global buyer such as Marks and Spencers, Polo etc.
Vertical integration to get cost advantage
AV Cell Inc., a joint venture between Aditya Birla Group and Tembec, Canada,
established operations in 1988 to produce softwood and hardwood pulp for the purpose of
internal consumption among different units of the Group.
Together, Aditya Birla Group and Tembec, Canada have acquired AV Nackawic Inc.,
which produces dissolving pulp, as a further step to integrate. Grasim Industries Ltd. Is a
leading player in the Viscose Staple Fibre (VSF). The Aditya Birla Groups VSF
manufacturing plants straddle Thailand, Indonesia, India and China. At each of these
locations, further capacity expansions are under way in Thailand by 31 ktpa; in
Indonesia by 37ktpa; in India by 64 ktpa and in China by 30 ktpa. These brown field
expansions were completed by the second half of 2008, and will further notch up the
Groups VSF production from 566 ktpa to 727 ktpa and entail an investment close to US$
260 million.



Grasim wants to follow a strategy of backward integration, right from plantation stage to
the final VSF stage. The Groups VSF business operates through its three companies
Grasim Industries in India, Thai Rayon Corporation in Thailand and Indo Bharat Rayon
in Indonesia, which also oversees its Chinese operations at Birla Jingwei Fibres, China.

JOINT VENTURES
Thai Rayon promoted in 1974 by the Aditya Birla Group, Thai Rayon is the sole
manufacturer of Viscose Rayon Staple Fibre (VSF) in Thailand. More than 50 percent of
Thai Rayons VSF throughput is directly exported to more than 20 countries worldwide.
The VSF meets the stringent quality expectations of customers in USA, Mexico, Europe,
Turkey, Canada, Israel, Australia, South Korea, Philippines, Indonesia, Pakistan,
Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
PT Indo Bharat Rayon marketed under the brand name of Birla Cellulose, the company
produces a wide range of VSF in engineered specifications for textiles and non-woven
applications. The companys strong focus on environmental protection is reflected
through its investments in a sophisticated state-of-the-art waste-water treatment plant and
scientific waste disposal systems.

are carried out at Birla Research Institute (BRI, Nagda, India). For value chain related
activities, a state of art Textile Research and Application Development Centre has been
established at Kharach, Gujrat- India to entire textile value chain from yarn to fabric to
garments.

produced saves 200 buckets of water when compared to cotton. Thus it preserves one of
the most valuable natural resources.

Birla Cellulose is the only Heavy metal / Zinc free viscose green properties like reduced
effluent load, improved fibre properties, reduced production cost and technological
adaptability

Process friendliness
The process being followed for production is environment friendly and green due to the
following advantages:
Non toxic effluent as a result of replacement of zinc by alum.
Less solid waste generation due to reduced lime consumption.
Reduced risk of fouling biological microorganism in reactor.

the skin is not advisable. Paper tissues tear off when rubbed over skin and leave lint on

portfolio includes Complete Cleansing Wipes, Germ Shield Wipes and Skin Nourishing

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY



RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research methodology is the arrangement of condition for collection and analysis of data
in a manner that aims to combine the relevance to the research purpose with economy in
procedure. Research is conceptual structure within which research is conducted. It is way
to systematically study and solve the research problems. The steps which complete the
process are mentioned below:
a) Problem Identification
b) Development of Approach to problem
c) Research design Formulation
d) Fieldwork and Data Collection
e) Data Preparation and Analysis
f) Report preparation and Presentation

Research Design
A Research Design is a frame work or blue print for conducting the marketing research
project. It details the procedures necessary for obtaining the information needed to
structure or solve marketing research problem. Although a broad approach to the problem
has already been developed, the research design specifies the details the nuts and bolts
of implementing the approach. A research design lays the foundation for conducting the
project. A good research design will ensure that the marketing research project is
conducted effectively and efficiently. There are three type of research designs viz.
a) Exploratory: This type of research is done when objective is not known and it helps in
providing insight and understandings to define a problem.
b) Descriptive: After defining a problem from exploratory research, we should define
questions, people surveyed, method of analysis, data collection and analysis of problem.


c) Causal: It helps in determining the cause and effect relationships. Manipulation of one
or more independent variables is done to match with the objective of our problem.
In this project, Descriptive Research Design had been used.

Descriptive Research Design
The major objective of descriptive research is to describe something usually market
characteristics or functions. Descriptive research is conducted for the following:
a) To describe the characteristics of relevant groups, such as consumers, sales people,
organizations, or market areas.
b) To estimate the percentage of units in a specified population exhibiting a certain
behavior.
c) To determine the perception of product characteristics.
d) To determine the degree to which marketing variables are associated.
e) To make specific prediction.

The Descriptive research can be classified in two methods:
1) Survey Methods: This method is used when the research directly corresponds the
respondent, makes him aware of our objective and seeks his help in filling up the
questionnaire. The respondent answers each and every question thus giving his
contribution to the study. Some of the observation methods are: Telephonic Surveys,
Mall intercept Mail surveys.
2) Observation methods: This method is used when the researcher uses his own
judgement on behalf of respondent by observing his reactions and answers when they
interact with each other. The researcher tries to put all elements of research questions in
the conversation and seeks to find the answers without letting respondent know about it.


In this project, Observation method has been used. The respondent was unaware of
his participation in the research study. Thus it was a disguised observation where the
researcher was disguised as a Sales manager.

Scaling
Scaling is applied to the attempts to measure the attitude objectively. Attitude is a
resultant of number of external and internal factors. Depending upon the attitude to be
measured, appropriate scales are designed. Scaling is a technique used for measuring
qualitative responses of respondents such as those related to their feelings, perception,
likes, dislikes, interests and preferences. Most commonly used scales are:
a) Nominal: Numbers serve only as labels or tags for identifying and classifying objects.
Only permissible operation on the numbers in a nominal scale is counting
b) Ordinal: A ranking scale in which numbers are assigned to objects to indicate the
relative extent to which the objects possess some characteristic. In addition to counting,
one can place objects accordingly relative to their rank.
c) Interval: Numerically equal distances on the scale represent equal values in the
characteristic being measured. However the location of origin is arbitrary.
d) Ratio: Possesses all the properties of the nominal, ordinal, and interval scales. It has an
absolute zero point
In this project, all the questions have been designed using Nominal scale.



Sampling
Sample basically means a subgroup of elements of population selected for participation in
study. And number of elements to be included in the study is known as sample size.
Execution of the sampling process requires a detailed specification of how the sampling
designs decisions with respect to the population, sampling frame, sampling unit, sampling
technique, and sample size is to be implemented. Sampling technique is broadly
classified as:
Non Probability Sampling A sampling technique that do not use chance selection
procedures and rather they rely on the personal judgment of the researcher.
Non Probability sampling technique is further classified as:
a) Convenience Sampling
b) Judgmental Sampling
c) Quota Sampling
d) Snowball Sampling

Probability Sampling A sampling procedure in which each element of population
has a fixed probabilistic chance of being selected for the sample. It is further
classified as:
a) Simple Random Sampling
b) Systematic Sampling
c) Stratified Sampling
d) Cluster Sampling

In this project, Convenience sampling i.e. Non Probability Sampling Technique is
used. Convenience sampling attempts to obtain a sample of convenient elements. The
selection of the sampling unit is left primarily to the interviewer. In this type of
sampling technique often the respondents are selected because they happen to be in
the right place at the right time.


DATA COLLECTION

Primary Data:
The first hand information bearing on any research is the one which has been collected by
the researcher. The data here is collected through:
A structured questionnaire
Disguised observation while interacting with managers.

Secondary Data:
The data which has already been collected, complied and presented earlier by any agency
may be used for purpose of investigation. The data collected through:
Various publications in form of annual reports, various papers and journals published
from time to time.
Through internet and Books

Limitations of the study:
Research is based on the collection of data from both primary and secondary sources.
There may be a possibility of biasness on the part of some respondents, but very
much care has been taken to make this report unbiased.
Some respondents might not give the correct information due to their lack of interest
and shortage of time.
Time constraint.
All the information, which is taken, is biased on primary and secondary data that has
its own limitations.

FINDINGS AND
DATA ANALYSIS



FINDINGS AND DATA ANALYSIS

The sectors explored where Kara could be used as a potential gifting product are :

Interpretation
Among the different companies visited, most of them were pharmaceutical companies
thus the reasearch is concentrated mostly for pharmaceutical companies. However during
initial stages, Hotels, Hospitals and Automobile companies were visited but there was no
positive response from these sectors.



The profile of the various pharmaceutical companies are as below:

Interpretation:
In total, 54 pharmaceutical companies were visited. 38 companies visited were Delhi
based manufacturers having their corporate office in Delhi. Only these companies were
engaged in Doctors gifting thus the research was carried out by interacting with managers
at various levels in these companies. Rajasthan Antibiotics is a contract manufacturer.
Also, 7 export houses were visited who generally dont do gifting in Indian market.
About 8 Companies have their corporate office in other cities and they have only regional
offices in Delhi where they cant take any decision.



The following pie chart shows about the awareness of Kara among respondents:

Interpretation:
66 Respondents from all the sectors were asked about the awareness of Kara. About 62%
of them were aware about Kara. The brand is building itself in the market and with the
launch of its advertisement on television; more and more people are becoming aware of
the product.



The proportion of pharmaceutical companies which use wet wipes for doctors
gifting are given in graph:

Interpretation:
This question was relevant to Delhi based pharmaceutical manufacturers whom it was
asked if they give wipes for Doctors gifting. Very few pharmaceutical companies do such
kind of gifting while most of the other companies were restricted to conventional gifting
items like pens, key chains, paper weights, table stands etc.



After discussing Kara, companies were asked if they may consider Kara for gifting
doctors in near future:

Interpretation:
Out of 38 companies, about 32% companies were impressed with our product. They were
told about the benefits of Viscose staple fibres, advantage of our product over
competitors product and customization options. A sample was given and they used
wipes on the spot, realizing the superior quality and gave a positive feedback about the
product.


Though the companies appreciated Kara, they didnt place immediate order
because:

Interpretation:
Though the product was appreciated by companies still they were apprehensive about
purchasing our product. This is due to following reasons:
#1: 5 companies said they doesnt do ethical marketing
#2: 3 companies said they manufacture their own product for gifting
#3: 6 companies said that they have already done gifting for this month/quarter
#4: 11 companies said that the perceived value by doctors wont be much
#5: 8 companies were not happy with discounts provided
#6: 5 companies said they are in discussion with management



The companies were asked if they think that Kara will be appreciated by doctors:

Interpretation:

Doctors as it is unconventional and offers a novel gifting solution. 47% companies said
that the Doctors will not like our product as its perceived value by doctors will be less.
The Doctors living in villages may not like this product as they are not much aware about
it. 21% respondents didnt give a clear response and they thought however it could be
tried.


The view of managers regarding pricing of Kara was discussed and the results are:

Interpretation:
Most of the companies considered Kara as an expensive product since cheap substitutes
are available in Market. They said since it is a disposable item, they dont want to pay
much for this product. About 26% people were aware about the benefits of Kara and they
were positive about the pricing of Kara. About 29% people were quite apprehensive of its
price and they feel the company is overcharging because of its brand name.



The respondents were asked if they have seen Karas advertisement on television
and the results are:

Interpretation:
Aditya Birla group started airing its advertisement of Kara from last month of May. The
companies visited before that was not aware of the advertisement. Out of 66 respondents,
about one third people have seen its advertisement when it was asked during
conversation. However more people must have seen its advertisement since then. There
were four different advertisements launched each having a duration of about 22 seconds.



Those who saw the advertisement were asked as to how theyll rate the
advertisement:

Interpretation:
The respondents who had seen the advertisement were asked informally about their
opinion about the advertisement. None of them considered advertisement of low quality
and most of the people felt it was of average nature.



Chapter 5:
RECOMMENDATIONS



RECOMMENDATIONS

Grasim Industries is working very hard to establish Kara as a leading product in Market.
The product has made its mark in wet wipes segment. After completing my project, I
would like to contribute my humble suggestions towards growth of Kara. These are as
follows:
1. Launching Kara wipes in Canister Packaging: Though Canister packaging is not as
durable as wipes packet, it offers more convenience when someone uses Kara while
sitting on his office table or keeping it in car. This type of packing is quite common in
foreign countries. Some of the companies which sell wet wipes in Canister packing are:
a) Kleen Test Products , Ohio, America
b) American Hygienics Corporation, China
Shanghai Shine Plastic Co. Ltd., China is contract manufacturer for canister packaging.

2. Placing Kara in Cash and Carry stores: Cash and carry stores are a prime location for
wholesalers and institutional buyers. All the variants of Kara can be placed for bulk
purchases giving appropriate discounts. Carrefour store at Seelampur Metro station in
Delhi and Best Price stores from Bharti-Walmart can be targeted for our product.

3. Moisturizing and sunscreen wipes for gynecologist: Pharmaceutical companies can be
approached with moisturizing, sunscreen and other variants who do gifting for
gynecologist.

4. Revising Discount schemes: Most of the companies were not convinced with Discount
slab as they assumed offered rate as Wholesale rates and not Corporate rates for Kara.

5. Approaching event management companies: Event management companies can be
targeted and corporate tie-ups can be done for High-end fashion shows, Polo matches,
International conferences etc.


6. Blogging about Kara: A blog can be created on internet which can educate people
about skincare and benefits of using Kara wipes. The blog can be made interactive by
putting surveys on it. The link of the blog can be bulk mailed to various people falling
within the target market.

7. Displaying Customized stickers: While explaining customization options to corporate
clients, it is better to show them few customized stickers of our current clients thus giving
them a fair idea of how we can customize their brand on sticker.

Since, Handys are also a premium product from Grasim Industries; few suggestions for
Handys are given as below:

1. Using Handys in High-end restaurants: Handys is a very good substitute of
conventional fingerbowls which are used in restaurants. Expensive restaurants in 5 star
hotels which offer Indian food to its guests, give fingerbowls to them for cleaning their
hands. It could be replaced by Handys which offers better sanitation properties and can
help restaurants for environmental audit.

2. Advertisement for Handys: Handys has a vast potential in field of Hand sanitizing
wipes. Advertisements on television can be aired to make people aware of it. One such
concept is:
Two housewives are sitting. One is disturbed because her son is not well and often
misses his school. She says that she takes all the precautions to ensure hygiene of his son
but still he becomes sick. The second wife says that keeping an eye on child is difficult
when he is in school. They may not know if he washes his hands before eating his Lunch.
It is best if she keeps a sachet of Handys in his Tiffin box, so before eating his lunch, he
can sanitize his hands. This advertisement can targeted for Housewives who can use this
product for both her Husband and Children.
