THEORITICAL PERSPECTIVE
Marketing Mix is the combination of four elements, called the 4P’s (Product, Price,
Promotion and Place), that every company has the option of adding, subtracting, or
modifying in order to create a desired marketing strategy.
Promotional mix describes a blend of promotional variables chosen by marketers to help a
firm reach its goals. It has been identified as a subset of the marketing mix. It is believed that
there is an optimal way of allocating budgets for the different elements within the
promotional mix to achieve best marketing results, and the challenge for marketers is to find
the right mix of them. Activities identified as elements of the promotional mix vary, but
typically include the following:
Advertisingis the paid presentation and promotion of ideas, goods, or services by an
identified sponsor in a mass medium. Examples include print ads, radio, television,
billboard, direct mail, brochures and catalogs, signs, in-store displays, posters, mobile
apps, motion pictures, web pages, banner ads, emails. It has three classifications :
1. ABOVE THE LINE (ATL) :
Above The Line (ATL) refers to promotional activities done at macro level. It is
done at national, regional or at bigger territory level and mass audience is covered
in this type of promotion. A brand image is created about the company and its
product. Media such as television, cinema, radio, newspapers, and magazines are
used to create an impact about the company and its product. ATL communication
is more of conventional in nature.
2. BELOW THE LINE (BTL) :
Below The Line (BTL) communication is unconventional in nature, done at
micro level and forms part of non-media communication. Measures include direct
mailing, distribution of flyers, brochures, and usage of sponsorships, public
relations, tele-marketing and point of sale.
3. THROUGH THE LINE (TTL):
13. 13 | P a g e
TTL' Marketing stands for 'Through The Line' Marketing. This kind of marketing
is really an integrated approach, where a company would use both BTL and ATL
marketing methods to reach their customer base and generate conversions
service or to act on any idea through the use of an oral presentation, often in a face-to-
face manner or by telephone. Examples include sales presentations, sales meetings, sales
training and incentive programs for intermediary salespeople, samples, and telemarketing
SalesPromotion is media and non-media marketing communication used for a pre-
determined limited time to increase consumer demand, stimulate market demand or
improve product availability. Examples include coupons, sweepstakes, contests, product
samples, rebates, tie-ins, self-liquidating premiums, trade shows, trade-ins, and
exhibitions.
Publicrelations or publicity is information about a firm's products and services
carried by a third party in an indirect way. This includes free publicity as well as paid
efforts to stimulate discussion and interest. It can be accomplished by planting a
significant news story indirectly in the media, or presenting it favorably through press
releases or corporate anniversary parties. Examples include newspaper and magazine
articles, TVs and radio presentations, chariTable contributions, speeches, issue
advertising, seminars.
Direct Marketing is a channel-agnostic form of advertising that allows businesses and
nonprofits to communicate directly to the customer, with methods such as mobile
messaging, email, interactive consumer websites, online display ads, fliers, catalog
distribution, promotional letters, and outdoor advertising.
Corporate imagecampaigns have been considered as part of the promotional mix.
Sponsorship of an event or contest or race is a way to generate further positive
publicity.
Guerrilla marketingtactics are unconventional ways to bring attention to an idea or
product or service, such as by using graffiti, sticker bombing, posting flyers, using flash
14. 14 | P a g e
mobs, doing viral marketing campaigns, or other methods using the Internet in
unexpected ways.
Product placement is paying a movie studio or television show to include a product or
service prominently in the show.

DATA ANALYSIS
Figure 1: From this figure we can infer the execution process for corporate workshop
model in B2B model. Also we can derive the average time frame and cost estimation
from these steps for this model design and development and can measure the MROI
(Marketing ROI) for the organization based on the lead generation and client meeting
setup.
Figure 2 : From the above graph we can interpret that most of the employees has life
insurance (almost 32%) but very less number of people interested in bonds (7%) ,
equity (13%) . We can derive that life insurance and general insurance are the sector
where company should focuses on more .
Figure 3: From the above graph we can derive that most number of employees are
interested in life insurance and most of them does not have that. Life insurance and
general insurance is the product which most of the employees wants to invest 25 and
13 consecutively where as interest for investing in bonds(6) , equity(10) and real
estate(10) very less compare to that .
Figure 4: From the above graph we can see that age group of 24 – 27 and 28 – 31 are
interested for life insurance . Almost 9 and 11 employee out of 30 of that age group
of this criteria responded positively compare to other age group of 32 – 35 , 36 – 39
and above 40 , whom positive responses are 1 , 3 , 6 consecutively
Figure 5: From the above bar chart we can infer that employees with a tax bracket of
10% are more interested about NPS. We can also derive from this analysis that they
are also very interested for retirement planning aspect. As we can see 42.80 %
employees of TB 10 are interested for new product NPS , but in the same
organization’s TB 20 and TB 30 group responses are about NPS are very compare to
TB 10 which are 33.30 % and 23.80%
Figure 6 : From the above bar chart we can derive the conclusion that product NPS
has an impact on the market and market response is very positive towards this product
for Bajaj Capital Limited , as we can infer from the graph that almost 52.50% of
consumer has a positive mind set for the product where as 30% of the consumer are
partially interested where as only 17.50% consumer are not giving positive feedback
for the product .
24. 24 | P a g e
Figure 7 : From this diagram we can infer that IBM employees specifically Slabe 1
employees are interested with the IT filling service where mostly S1 employees
shown their interest for the workshop 45.45% where S2 and S3 are30.30 and 26.67%.
FINDINGS
BTL activations should be related to the local culture and should run for a specific
time frame. Same kind of activations not only carrying additional cost for
maintenance but also creates a negative impact on consumers.
From the Market survey 1 we can infer that in TCS employees awareness for life
insurance is very less. As well as they are very interested about this product. My
target audience will be the employees with a age group of 24 – 27 years whom we can
assuming as fresher employees. They are interested about this product and wants to
know about it . So for the corporate workshop BCL should focus on these aspects.
By analyzing the Market Survey 2, we can infer that employees with a tax bracket of
10% are more interested about NPS. We can also derive from this analysis that they
are also very interested for retirement planning aspect.
From Market survey 3, From this survey we can infer that most of employees of IBM
, specifically Slabe – 1 employees are very interested for free Income Tax Return
filling Workshop of BCL . By using this survey we can approach IBM management
for IT filling workshop which will provide BCL a strong corporate communication as
well as high brand visibility in the market and also increase the customer base through
lead generation by this workshop.
From three of the surveys we can see that most of the employees of age group 24-28
with salary band 10 – 25 k are most interested respondents for financial services and
product so promotional campaign or new product development (NPD) concepts we
can develop exclusively for this target audience .
Before design and develop workshops for corporate gathering information about the
culture of the company , employee strength and market survey on their employees
financial interest , product requirement identification is very important and also fix up
with their Accounts and HR division for getting information about payscale ,
employee engagement activities .

Focus on ATL and TTL activation is very important, without these entities effective
promotional mix creation is very difficult, especially for growth stage of a new
product .
26. 26 | P a g e
RECOMMENDATIONS
Following suggestions were given to the company:
More focus on Above the line (ATL) activations, it will increase brand image and
visibility in a less time consuming way .
Apply BTL activations coupon, rebates, and loyalty cards at a seasonal basis.
Activations like Event sponsorship create an effective promotional mix for the brand
on both B2B and B2C segment.
A modified DDS (Door to Door Selling) to be adopted the company.
Methods like Guerrilla or Buzz marketing strategies should adopt by the company this
type of promotional campaign creates an interest on consumers mind about the brand
.

Some of the methodological tests required for accurate results were not applied to
insufficiency in knowledge.

Some respondents were unwilling to reveal information.

CONCLUSION
The far – reaching in the Indian economy since liberalization have had a deep impact on the
financial services sector. Financial sector reforms that were initiated by the government since
the early ‘90’s have been to meet challenges of a complex financial architecture. This has
ensured that the new emerging face of the Indian financial sector will culminate in a strong ,
transparent and resilient system .India's services sector has always served the country’s
economy well, accounting for about 57 per cent of the gross domestic product (GDP). In this
regard, the financial services sector has been an important contributor. The size of banking
assets in India reached US$ 1.8 trillion in FY14 and is expected to touch US$ 28.5 trillion by
FY25.
BAJAJ CAPITAL LTD is one of the nonpareil and pre – eminent brand in the area of
investment services sector of India. On the Eastern zone specially at KOLKATA, BCL’s
activity is not very prominent compare to the other zone presence. To increase brand
visibility as well as to develop a broad client network every company has to follow the AIDA
model - Attention, Interest, Desire, Action. Attention or awareness being the first step of
business gets more importance by the marketers. Therefore to make a presence several
marketing strategies were applied namely:
MARKETING MIX
PROMOTIONAL MIX
BUSINESS TO CUSTOMER MODEL (B2C)
BUSINESS TO BUSINESS MODEL (B2B)
BELOW THE LINE ACTIVATIONS (BTL)
SEGEMENTATION TARGETING POSITIONING (STP)
CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM)
By the help of these marketing instruments, the brand visibility and client network of
Bajaj Capital is now extortionate.
