FIELD STUDY SCENARIO AT
SIDDHI COMMUNICATION
At siddhi communication I know about the marketing strategy, sells,
product promotion, and distribution by Mr. Shyam in captainganj. The
whole team work on field work and promotion the Good day biscuit in
town as well as in rural area also. They majorly focus on;
 Promotion the product
 Field work
 Target work

model of Good Day launched , then they have to promote those product
by posters in town as well as in rural area also.
Field work: In field work they have to work in market to increase in the
sell of the particular good day product. They have to increase the
Retailers for increasing the sell of the particular product. They have to
target the retailers according to the customer need , means what a
customer wants and what is his capability. They know very well the local
area the retailers also it helps to increase the sell of the Good day
biscuit.
Target work: Sales target always calculated on the basic of previous
performance of the particular retailer. Since everyone has well capacity
to perform best keeping in mind all factors and pit falls throughout the
calculated time. The time could be daily, weekly, monthly and yearly.
Siddhi communication gives target to Retailers of selling the Good day
cookies in limited time. If they get succeed in the target siddhi
communication gives reward to them. Usually a single retailer sells 4
boxes in a week. And there are 100 piece of packet in one box.
Sells of the cookies also depend on the price of the packet as well as the
flavor the cookies.
DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL
The distribution channel of the Britannia company ( Good day cookies) is
following:
Basically the distribution of the Good day biscuit is divided in to four
parts:
From the factory to Distributor and they make the stock of the product in
warehouses .
And from the warehouses , distributors has to distribute the cookies to
retailers. Where retailers can sell the product to the consumer/customer.
There are two type of distributors are available in market:
1: Institutional Distributors
2: Distributor (Retailors)
In Institutional Distributor , they get the cookies from the factory and sells
into institutions like hospital etc. and in the other distributor they get
cookies from factory and they have to distribute to retailers and after that
customer can easily buy.

CUSTOMER VALUE HIERARCHY

The marketer needs to address five product levels for increasing the sell
of the products. There each level adds more customer value.
MARKETING MIX
Marketing mix is all about the combination of four Ps of marketing that
give the idea about the right product with the effective price at the right
place as well as the right strategy of promotion.

Product: The 1st p is product in marketing mix. Product can be two


types:
1: Tangible 2: Intangible
So Good Day comes in tangible product’s list , because these can be
tested , smelled and consumed. And if we talk about good day cookies
then:
 Availability in all over India.
 Quality is very good.
 Various products launched for different product types
Price: Price is basically the cost of the particular product that customer
pay. Pricing of any product play very important role for any country to
achieve the major market share in the particular area. Price is one of the
very important and main factor to attract the consumer/ customer for
buying the product. If we talk about the Good day biscuit then, it focus
on middle class family majorly. The price range of the good day cookies
is Rs. 5 to Rs. 40.

Place: place is very important factor for any company for increasing the
sell. So that place is where the product is available to target the
customer to buy. Britannia has very strong channel of distribution of the
there products. While talking to Mr. Shyam he told me about the place
that he target. According to him the consumption of Good day cookies is
much higher in urban area as compare to rural areas. The distributor
mainly target those places where middle class family live.
Promotion: It is very important tool to increase the sell of Good day
cookies. Promotion generally means that to make every one aware
about the product. Retailer generally do four thing for promoting the
product:
1: By Catalog /Price Book
2: By Newsletter/Monthly Specials Bulletin

distribution area is also very huge. In is distributed in urban area and the
most targeted customer are middle class family because of this factors
Good day is 2nd most consuming cookie in India after Parle G . Still

rural area as well as in urban area .
While making a product a SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) of the shop retailers
I have got about the Gross Margin Return on Investment and they
promote the brands(good day) which provide them highest profit margin.
Maximum time the retailers expect return in the form of some company
scheme and profit margin as well as references of the shop. After all

margin.
