vThreat to Entry
Ø   Entering market isn’t very easy. One of the most
important features needed is a good distribution system
which isn’t something that can be developed overnight.

Ø The brand plays an important role in influencing the
purchase decision. For a new company then entering this
market, not having a recognized brand name is a threat
to entry.
v  Rivalry among existing firms
Ø
 
Ø­ There is strong competition among the current players. The main 
players are LG, Samsung, Onida, Videocon, Philips, Sansui.

ØThis increased competition has ensured that advertising costs are an 
integral part of the players’ total cost. 
Ø
ØIt is expected that realizations will fall with increased competition.

vBargaining Power of Buyers
v
ØThe TV market today is a consumer’s market where the 
consumer has the upper hand with him having the power of 
choosing from a variety if brands.
Ø
ØThis bargaining power of the buyer has forced the players to offer 
credit facilities on sale, to provide lower EMIs and excellent after­
sales service.
Ø
ØThe intense dealer competition also benefits the consumer in 
terms of prices and offers available.
vThreat of Substitutes­
 
ØFor a television, the substitute can only be a functional substitute. 
The functional use of a television is to watch programs, live events 
etc. This today can also be done on a computer.
Ø
Ø  Theaters too can be a substitute to watching movies at home.

SEGMENTATION
1)  Geographic  Segmentation

In the colder regions sales of the refrigerators is much  
less than the colder regions so  geographic conditions 
play a very vital role in product segmentation. Similarly 
other  products are influenced by the climatic conditions,  
different locations and regions.

2)  Demographic segmentation

This part of segmentation is done on the basis of   age 
.gender, income, family size income, etc.. For egthe Sale 
of  LCDs  and LEDs depend upon  income of the customer 
 and also sale  of Air Conditioners also depend  upon  the  
purchasing  power of the customer. 
CONTD…

3 )  Behavioral  Segmentation

It totally depends upon the usage rate of the customer 
and the loyalty of the customer towards the company. For 
example washing machines shows the best example for 
the consumer loyalty towards the  videocon.

4)   Psychographic  Segmentation

In  this segment  luxurious goods, personality  and 
lifestyle of the customer  effects totally
Goods like air conditioners and  plasma panels, home 
theaters are segmented.
TARGETING
ØPeople with disposable income
ØLow income masses.
ØYouth
ØWomen & senior citizens

In premium segments like Televisions and Air  Conditioners the 
growth in sales has been many times the industry growth. More 
importantly, high end product sales are no longer restricted to 
metros. Consumer in tier­2 cities seems to be as evolved in 
lifestyle needs. The consumer profile, too, has changed. Higher 
disposable incomes, greater aspirations and younger 
demographic have increased demands for the technologies. And 
Videocon is targeting these segment.
POSITIONING
Once the competitive frame of reference for positioning has been fixed by 
defining the customer target market and nature of competition, 
marketers can define the appropriate points­of­difference and points­of 
parity associations.
 
Points of Parity (POPs) are associations that are not necessarily unique 
to the brand but may infact be shared with other brands. They represent 
necessary­but not necessarily sufficient­conditions for brand choice.
Videocon's Points­of­Parity are good quality Picture and good sound.
 
Points­of­Difference (PODs) are attributes or benefits consumers 
strongly associates with a brand, positively evaluate, and believe that 
they could not find to the same extent with a competitive brand.
Videocon's POD is the quality product with low cost.
With the strong backward integration Videocon can provide the products 
with low cost.
 
Thus, Videocon is positioned itself as a reliable and value­for­
money product.

can provide cost effective products.

budget for making its presence felt in the
