6.7 Advertising in Bangladesh at a glance -here was very little advertising &ractice in Bangladesh $efore inde&endence.

?
-here is no formal way of trac%ing of advertising agencies in the country. According to formal media sources# a total of 1C agencies are registered with Bangladesh -elevision# while the num$er eceeds CC when $oth the formal and informal sectors are considered. 4owever# more than JCN of the formal mar%et share is held $y the to& nine advertising agencies of the country. -hese agencies# in descending order of mar%et share# are Adcomm# Asiatic# Bito&i# Grey#+nitrend# Inters&eed# /o&ular# =adona# and =atra. ;ther advertising agencies claim only a$out 1N of the mar%et share# while the rest is accrued to in7house advertisement of $usiness firms and enter&rises. Advertisement media in Bangladesh can $e classified into two categories $ased on the &lacement strategy 7 A$ove the Line (A-L) category and Below the Line (B-L) category# each claiming a$out CN of the total revenue. A-L includes news&a&ers# magazines# radio# television# and satellite and ca$le television. /lacement strategies under B-L includes event management# in7house advertisement (com&any &erforming own advertisement) at &oint of &urchase# outdoor advertisement ($ill$oards# hoarding# neon signs# and $ell signs)# innovative activities (atra# street drama) and advertisement on vehicle $odies or fliers. -he mar%et size of the formal advertising agencies accounted for a$out -% ? $illion in 1!!!# while# in7house and outdoor advertisements $y manufacturing or service &roviding com&anies and the informal agencies (non7registered agencies and individuals) accounted for a$out another -% 1 $illion. -he tariff structure of advertisement varies de&ending u&on the ty&e of media and the time or s&ace used. A C7seconds advertisement on Bangladesh -elevision is charged -% !#C at &ea% hours (J /= till the end of dayKs transmission) and the amount increases $y surcharge (CN for fied time# JCN for immediately $efore or after the news# @CN for mid7$rea%s in films and 1CCN for mid7$rea% in news). 8ates are almost half during transmission hours $efore J /=. -he commercial time allowed to a s&onsor in a "C7minute &rogram is u& to 1@C seconds and the rate charged &er e&isode or &rogram is -% @C#CCC early time# -% 1CC#CCC for &ea% time. Bangladesh -elevision offers a discount of ?N on advertisements of $oo%s and magazines not containing any advertisement and activities of registered cultural organizations and
voluntary organizations. Guide$oo%s for admission tests and com&etitive eaminations# test &a&ers and &u$lishing houses do not get this discount facility. Bangladesh television however# im&oses an additional surcharge of "CN on s&ot and s&onsored advertisement for all &roducts# which are &roduced or assem$led outside the country. 8ates charged $y the Bangladesh 8adio are much less -% "CC for each transmission of a 17seconds advertisement from 1st to 1st time. Bangladesh 8adio charges -% #CCC for s&onsorshi& of a cric%et match and -% C#CCC for that of a foot$all match. Advertisement tariff for news&a&ers varies $etween -% CC and -% @CC &er column inch in inside &ages> it is a$out three times higher in $ac% &ages. -he growth of the advertising industry since 1!"J demonstrated a direct relationshi& $etween the economic growth of the country and &urchasing &ower. Informal advertising agencies are continually s&ringing u& in com&etition with formal ones. -he clientele of advertising agencies &rimarily com&rise of &rivate national com&anies (/53)# multinational com&anies (=53) and non7government organizations (5G;). -he =53s com&rise more than "CN of the media share followed $y the /53s com&rising ?N. -he maor client of the &rint media is the government. -he advertising $usiness is governed $y the com&etition &revailing in the mar%et> &roducts having high com&etition advertise more. Also# consumer goods hold higher &ortion of the advertising $udget. Also evident the industries having a very high local demand de&end on advertising. 6&ort
oriented
com&anies have gradually started to use the e&ertise of the advertising industry es&ecially in the area of $rochure develo&ment. -he legal as&ect of advertising is controlled $y the government through a re,uirement of the media to sign contracts with advertising agencies or the advertiser for all ty&es of advertisements. -he general terms and conditions of the contract are to conform to laws and regulations relating to &rinting# &u$lication and mass communication. -he =inistry of Information is the &rimary controlling authority and may decide to change all or a &art of the terms and conditions of contracts with the advertising media.

a. %O2IA %o5ia is the worldKs leading mo$ile &hone su&&lier and a leading su&&lier of mo$ile and
fied telecom networ%s including related customer services. :hen it launched it*s &roducts in Bangladesh they were trying to get mied with the &eo&le of Bangladesh as well as with their emotion.
34ALL65G6 Bangladesh has a &o&ulation of 1Cmln &eo&le with mo$ile su$scri&tion $ase of 1.1mln. Grey handsets dominated the mar%et with @CN share. -he challenge really was to fight against these grey handsets in Bangladeshi mar%et> 5o%ia was trying to esta$lish awareness of the $enefits and disadvantages of legal handsets versus grey handsets. 5o%ia esta$lished themselves as the alternative mo$ile solution for consumers who wanted to get mo$ile handsets at a chea& &rice. -he consumer offer was Bangla ena$led features $ut availa$le o nly on legal# entry level handsets# which was first in Bangladesh for any handset mar%eter.
ID6A :hen we started off there were many things come across our mind. -he most im&ortant insight we had a glorious &ast of our language. Bangladesh is the only nation that fought for its language in recognition of which ?1st
:e never wanted to lose the fact that 5o%ia wants to connect the &eo&le. o we &ic%ed u& this magic of connection and &ride of our language. :e $lended u& these two factors and
J
created the &erfect connection* $etween an international $rand and its consumers via a strong and relevant insight.
;L+-I;5 -he challenge was to go $eyond the left $rainTthe &roduct attri$utesTto really create an emotional connection with the consumers. :hat we did wonderfully was to create an idea for those who $elieve from the core of their heart that the sweetest language in the world is Bangla and the sweetest e&ressions are articulated only in this language. -he fact is# almost every Bangladeshi $elieves that Bangla language is one of his &rime e&ressions of KBengalinesK.
86+L- -he cam&aign &uts a great im&act in case of 5o%ia .;ne of the greatest achievement is reducing the grey mar%et circulation. It reduced from @CN of the total mar%et to ?CN. 5o%ia won over the mind share and share of voice of Bangladeshis using a humorous and local a&&roach. /reference scores went u& $y score &oints .It sales went u& times $ringing their overall mar%et share to "N.

Last $ut not the least# -he Bangla 8ange cam&aign of 5o%ia handset $rings the 6ffie Award to G869 which can $e consider as the ;scar in the advertising world .
@
:inning an 6ffie has $ecome a glo$al sym$ol of achievement .Its not only the matter of &ride for the Grey advertising agency $ut also for Bangladesh.
