INTRODUCTION
Marketing:
The process of ascertaining consumer needs, converting them into a product or service
& then moving the product or service to the final consumer or user to satisfy such needs
& wants of specific customer segment or segments with emphasis on profitability,
ensuring the optimum use of resources available to the organization.
Marketing is so basic that it cant be considered a separate function. It is the whole
business seems from the point of view of its final results that is from the customers point
of view Business success is not determined by the producer but by the customer.
According to me marketing means, push the product to the market & pull the
customer towards the business. We can say that the main aim of the marketer is to convert
the want of the customer to the need of the customer. Thus marketing job is to convert
societal needs into profitable opportunities. Hence, Marketing occupies an important
position in the organization of a business unit. It is one of the important line activities of
business operation. It consists of the ownership of goods. Goods are not complete
products until they are in the hands of the customer. It is the process by which products
are made available to the ultimate consumers from their point of origin. It consists of all
those activities, which are meant to ensure the flow of goods & services from the
producer to the consumer. Therefore, marketing thinking must start with a crystallization
of needs of consumer segment of which the efforts will ultimately be aimed. In terms of
needs, the product or service must be developed or improved so that ultimately the
product satisfies such needs of the consumer segment involved.
Today marketer, have to take tough decisions because todays market place is
venomously more complex. Domestic markets, at one time safe from foreign invaders are
now the happy hunting grounds of giant global corporation as well as global niche
specialists. Major strides in technology have considerably shortened time & distance.
New products are launched & astonishing pace are available worldwide in a short
time. Communicating ones media are proliferating new distribution channels & formats
keep appearing. Competitors are everywhere & hungry.

is the findings also include charts and diagram etc, and the report also mentions
the limitations of the project undertaken. The conclusions have been drawn out of
the findings and various recommendations have been given in the end of the
report.
Limitation of the study
The major limitation of the study was that the depth study in the subject could not
be done because of limited time.
The other limitations are:
The company doesnt declare all the data & the internal data are kept confidential.
Though every sincere & possible effort has been made to collect the data, some
retailers were uncooperative in providing the actual data.
The project is done in CTC may not represent the figure of the whole India.
Since the data collected was representative based the accuracy is questionable.
Some questions created confusion among the respondents.
The respondents were not interested to fill up the questionnaire due to lack of
interest.
The sample has taken only 20 respondents. They may not represent the whole
population.
Lack of secondary data Collection of the recent brochures, in house journals, etc
of the company was relevant to a little extent. But most of the necessary
information is not available in the company.

train.
Slowly and slowly with its beautiful tests these become very poplar and they are
not only available in the markets and street corner but also people have started keeping it

drink content. Added to this, the drink also contains sweeteners, Carbon dioxide, Citric
Acid/Malic acid, Colors, Preservatives, Anti Oxidants and other emulsifying agents, etc.
The market in India is slowly moving from non-alcoholic carbonated drinks
to fruit based drinks and also to plain bottled water. Soft drinks market in India grew at a
slower rate in 2003 and 2004 compared to 2002.In 2004, with 12% growth volume
reached over 3.0 billion liters. However, the growth rate marked a slowdown from just
below 17% in 2002. This poorer performance stemmed mainly from slower growth
within carbonates. Bottled water and 100% juices continued to expand at robust rates,
appealing to the health conscious.

The process of manufacturing of aerated water (Soft Drinks) & fruit Juice under
PepsiCo Brand is divided into mainly five parts such as:
Water Treatment
Syrup Making
Bottle Washing
Filling
Crowning & Coding
Testing of the product
Water Treatment:
Water Treatment is very essential in soft drinks plant as the nature & quality of water
varies from place to place. To set uniform & standard water the process of treatment is
carried on. The water taken from bore well by the help of water pump & pipe lines are
collected in a storage tank where is pre-chlorinated by chlorinate & then by the help of
pipelines comes to a treatment tank called coagulator tank where this water solution of
different strength of bleaching powder, ferrous sulphate, hydrate line are added through
dosing pump to reduce alkalinity, hardness & kill the bacteria. A mechanical stirrer mixes
the chemical & then the suspended water settles down as sludge & clean water passes
through retention tank. From this tank, the water passes through sand filter containing
fine sand & pebbles & carbon filter contains granular carbon & finally through water
polisher, micron filter, UV lamp to ensure clear & sanitary water for use. Further water
used in the bottle washer & boiler needs softening. For this purpose the water from
storage tank, after passing through two filter beds containing fine sand & granular carbon
happens.
Through a bed of resin where it is softened, this soft water is essential for use in bottle
washer to reduce scale formation inside the machine.
Syrup Making:
For syrup making of a particular brand, collect quantity of sugar, water activated
carbon (Powder) & Hyflow super cell known as filter aid are taken into a sugar
dissolving tank which is specially designed making a vacuum space to enter steam & also
fitted by a motor with agitator. Sugar syrup called raw syrup is prepared by developing
the sugar with continuous stirring & heating by steam supplied by oil-fired boiler. This
hot syrup with the help of a pump is filtered through a filter press attach with a series of
quality filter paper to separate out carbonated particles.
Bottle Washing:
Bottle Washing is an important part in soft drink plant. The emptied durable &
returnable bottles are used & returned from market in plastic crates are fed to bottle
washing machine. The machine double end system with circular chin to carry the bottles
caustic soda, tri-sodium phosphate & sodium-gluconate are added to the caustic tank
filled in with water heated by steam supplied by the boiler. The empty bottles enter to the
hot caustic tank in one end & after being cleaned by the hot caustic solution & finally
washed with water through spray-jets fitted are discharged in other end. Then washed
bottles pass on conveyor chain against laminated board for further inspection in the
direction filling machine.
Filling:
Finished syrup &treated water line are connected to a dosing pump which mixes
syrup & water with the ratio of 1:5 & syrup mixed with water entered to carbonated tank
to mix with carbon dioxide gas are preserved in cylinder for use. The cylinders are
connected through CO2 manifold tank to use requisite quantity of gas. The syrup passes
through PHE, which is cooled itself by circulation of chilled, glycol supplied chilling
compressor. To run the machine F-22 gas is used. The syrup being chilled easily mixes
with CO2 gas & enters to the filter for bottling. The filter is fitted with filling valves & lift
Cylinders.
Then sealed bottles passed on the conveyor chain are coded by a coding machine on
their way to out end. The sealed bottles are inspected properly against inspection light
while passing through the conveyor fitted with SS chain. The empty plastic crates passing
through a conveyor enter to crate washer machine & it is washed & moves through the
conveyor where finished products are accumulated. Then the products are kept in plastic
crates, which are durable in nature & returnable by buyer, put on palates & sent to
shipping for shipment.
Test of Products:
Finally the finished syrup during bottling is tested in laboratory to meet the
permanent & also to get standard & quality products.

A. Literature Review
B. Theoretical Framework
Literature Review
Sales:
Sales are the activities involved in selling products or services in return for money
or other compensation. It is an act of completion of a commercial activity. The "deal is
closed", means the customer has consented to the proposed product or service by making
full or partial payment (as in case of installments) to the seller.
Academically, selling is thought of as a part of marketing, however, the two
disciplines are completely different. Sales often form a separate grouping in a corporate
structure, employing separate specialist operatives known as salesmen (singular:
salesman). Sales are considered by many to be a sort of persuading "art". Contrary to
popular belief, the methodological approach of selling refers to a systematic process of
repetitive and measurable milestones, by which a salesman relates his offering of a
product or service in return enabling the buyer to achieve his goal in an economic way.
Sales techniques
Promotion
It involves disseminating information about a product, product line, brand, or
company. It is one of the four key aspects of the marketing mix. (The other three
elements are product management, pricing, and distribution.) Promotion is generally sub-
divided into two parts:
i. Above the line promotion:
Promotion in the media (e.g. TV, radio, newspapers, Internet andMobile Phones)
in which the advertiser pays an advertising agency to place the ad.
ii. Below the line promotion:
All other promotion. Much of this is intended to be subtle enough that the
consumer is unaware that promotion is taking place. E.g. sponsorship, product placement,
endorsements, sales promotion, merchandising, direct mail, personal selling, public
relations, trade shows The specification of these four variables creates a promotional mix
or promotional plan. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of
the four subcategories, and how much money to budget for each. A promotional plan can
have a wide range of objectives, including: sales increases, new product acceptance,
creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive retaliations, or creation of a corporate
image. An example of a fully integrated, long-term, large-scale promotion are and Pepsi
Stuff.
External Factors:
There is wide spread use of branding promotional activities are essential as they ar
more practical than advertising.
Competitor have become promotional-minded there is cut-throat competition and
the market is flooded with numerous products hence promotional activities are
essential.
During the period of inflation & recession the consumer are more deal oriented
and the promotional technique facilitate sales.
The present stage of trade demands more deals from manufacturers.
1) Develop in-store merchandising support, as strong support at the retail store level is
the key to closing the loop between the customer and the sale.
2) Control inventory by increasing or depleting inventory levels, thus
helping to eliminate seasonal peaks and valleys.
3) Expand or improve distribution by opening up new sales areas (trade promotions are
also sometimes used to distribute a new size of the product).
4) Generate excitement about the product among those responsible for selling it. Some of
the most common forms of trade promotions profiled below include point-of-purchase
displays, trade shows, sales meetings, sales contests, push money, deal loaders, and
promotional allowances.
THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK
Above literature review give the information about the sale, promotion, and sale-
promotion relationship, type of sale promotion, merit & demerit of sale promotion. From
the type of sale promotion I considered only the Trade sales promotion because my
scope of study restricted to the trade only. There is the various sale promotion techniques
is there such as Trade allowances: short term incentive offered to induce a retailer to
stock up on a product. Dealer loader: An incentive given to induce a retailer to purchase
and display a product.Trade contest: A contest to reward retailers that sell the most
products. Pointof- purchase displays: Extra sales tools given to retailers to boost sales.
Training programs: dealer employees are trained in selling the product. Push money: also
known as "spiffs". An extra commission paid to tail employees to push products. Trade
discounts (also called functional discounts): These are payments to distribution channel
members for performing some function. But, every trade promotional activity is not
effective due to the following reason:
CHAPTER: 4
Data Analysis
1. Nature of Outlets
The survey revealed that about 90% of the total outlets are non seasonal,
that means they sale PepsiCo product throughout the year. And rest 10%
outlets are seasonal.
2.Type of outlets:
From the above figure it is clear that out of 20 outlets, 9 Outlets are
exclusively Pepsi (PSI) counters, another 5 outlets are of mixed type & the rest 6
outlets are exclusively Coca-Cola (CCX) counters.
3.FOCUS BRAND
From the above study I knew that most of the outlets focus on glass bottles (RGB).
The above figure shows that the regular promotional scheme is very much popular
because the retailers want permanent income throughout the year. They also like
various promotional schemes such as UTC and Scratch card .Incentive based
scheme is not much popular because in this scheme some target is given to the
owners of the outlets.
6. PROMOTIONAL SCHEME RECEIVED BYOUTLETS
UTC, Refilling & Scratch card Scheme is most popular & known scheme received
by maximum outlets .Gift and Discount /Rebate schemes are not received by
maximum outlets because they have some conditions to be fulfilled for getting it.
7. PROMOTIONAL SCHEMES APPRECIATED BY THE
OUTLETS
After the survey, I came to know that the retailers appreciate mostly two types of
promotional schemes i.e. UTC & Refilling because; here the owners get Benefits
of the scheme from sales person on the spot of purchase.
8.Promotional tools Available at different outlets
From the above survey it is clear that sales promotion activity such
as high margin, more schemes & heavy advt. has a large impact on sales
growth.
12. Reaction of Outlets on overall marketing activities of PepsiCo
Most of the outlets are satisfied but some of the outlets report insufficient
supply of products and delay in redressal of customer grievances such as repair of
Visi Cooler etc.

Finding
Suggestion
Conclusion
Findings
1. The most basic objective of any sales promotions is to provide
extra value that encourages purchase.
2. Short term sales increase is required to reduce inventory.
Promotions like price-off or bonus pack gives large & immediate
benefit.
3. Sales promotion schemes like price-off or free gift induce

space.
5. Sales promotions give the consumer an incentive to buy.

9. Pepsi provides its products at a special price to various shopping
malls such as Big Bazaar, Pantaloons, Vishal Mega mart, In and
out, Sasta Bazaar. Reliance Fresh etc with an aim to promote the
Brands.
Suggestion
1. Company should give knowledge to the salesman about the
promotional Scheme so that they can better understand the
importance of promotional activities.
2. There should be a regular meeting between distributor & company
about the implementation of sales promotion.
3. Fast repairing of ViSi Cooler will gain the faith & goodwill of the
customer.
4. Company should provide racks to more outlets to keep Pet bottles
for display.
5. Company should adopt the promotional activities properly and not
in a trial and error method.
6. Company should arrange training or Seminar programs for retailers
to make them aware about the companys sales objective and
enhance their selling ability.
7. Company should provide more profitable schemes so that the
retailers can happily accept it.
8. Company should spend more on Promotional schemes on the
weaker products like Pepsi, M.dew etc to boost up Sales.
Conclusion
SALES PROMOTION is a promise made to the consumers & retailer by
the company. Sales promotion, not only has Functional and Mental dimensions but
also Social and Spiritual dimensions. The challenge in front of Indian organizations
today is to first understand and then satisfy the needs of the customers. The needs
of the customers today are experiences and not just the products. The Indian
leading to satisfaction and association with all the dimensions of the brand. These
experiences can be delivered by involving the customer in the supply chain which
demands improvement from the organization in terms of training the employees
Brands will depend on how efficiently and quickly the organization can adapt to
