PEEK FREANS PRICING • EBML bases its price on the Cost Structure, Competitors’ prices and the Value given to a brand by the consumers • Peak Freans Above pricing are on basis of Demographic segments. Peek Freans also provide bulk Discounting on Stores Like Metro, Departmental, and Hyper-star. • There are gift vouchers within the biscuits packs, some of them are cash prizes, Children stuff and Family pack discount.
Placement • EBML uses Indirect Marketing Channels, that is it has intermediaries (distributors) between the company itself and the retailers who in turn provide their products to the final consumers. • The main task for EBM regarding market positioning is to position its products in such a way that it is able to create more consumer involvement in EBM products and to respond LU’s strategies in this regard.
PROMOTIONS • It is a combination of its advertising, sales promotion activities, publicity campaigns and personal selling tactics. • Three approaches they use are: – Informative Promotion – Persuasive Promotion – Comparison Promotion
Promotions •
Informative Promotion – Recently EBML has decided to concentrate on its leading products. In addition to this all new products EBML launches have to be presented to the public highlighting its features, its taste etc.
•
Persuasive Promotion – Various promotional activities conducted by EBML are centered towards Competitor persuasion. Considering the tough competition it faces from LU, EBML has to convince people into switching to or building preference for its brands.
•
Comparison Promotion – Once again, in the wake of competition EBML has to directly or indirectly position its products against other products in the market. In EBML’s case, comparison promotion is extremely important because every new or existing product of EBML, which is competing against LU’s product, has to be given an edge, a comparison, and a foothold.
