Unfortunately the best wine still needs a new bottle

“You may find an audience with

innovators and early adopters,

but the mainstream market,

where the profit resides, will

reject your product unless

marketed correctly.”

Biggest challenge for Indian SME today - attracting /retaining talent

“All of our assets walk out

of the door each evening.

We have to make sure

that they come back the

next morning.”

army of lion being led by

a sheep; I am afraid of

an army of sheep led by

a lion.”

Extrapolation from multiple sources of data__

No serious Indian business can avoid going ‘digital’ anymore!

Out of 1,284 milion Indians

• 1/6 have Internet access = 214 million • 1/10 have mobile internet access = 128 million • 1/13 have Social Media access = 100 million Considering that there are 1.3 million SMEs and < 5000 enterprises; and Corporate founders/ decision makers comprise the top strata of society,

you don’t have to be a rocket science to assume that >90% of all Indian B2B decision makers are Online / Social / Mobile

OUTSOURCED MARKETING

LEADER

Team Motivation Coaching &

mentoring from

someone who has

walked the path –

great for

team spirit

To get ‘fruits’ –

work on ‘roots’ Marketing excellence

comes from sweating

small back-end stuff

For B2B cos. –

Marketing Can be difference

between survival &

bankruptcy. Get a

pro to guide your

marketing

Traditional

marketing still

rocks Effective old

fashioned Tele,

Events & PR still

deliver the best

ROI

Digital brings

new dimension You NEED digital,

but does your digital

agency really

understand your

business?

Just do some stuff. Take the first steps.

The worst that can happen is you will feel a bit strange.

The best? You begin to revolutionise your marketing.
