Sales promotions are those activities, other than advertising and personal selling that
stimulate market demand for a product. The basic purpose is to stimulate on the spot buying
by potential customers through short-term incentives
“Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain what
they need and want, through creating, offering and exchanging products of value with others”
Marketing includes all those activities having to do with effecting changes in the ownership
and possession of goods and services. It is that part of economics which deals with the creation
of time, place and possession utilities and that phase of business activity through which human
wants are satisfied, by the exchange of goods and services for some valuable consideration
Sales Promotion Strategies. There are three types of sales promotion strategies: Push, Pull, or
a combination of the two. A push strategy involves convincing trade intermediary channel
members to "push" the product through the distribution channels to the ultimate consumer
via promotions and personal selling effort
Sales promotions can also be used to help persuade consumers to purchase new or existing
products. One way is to offer a sample. Samples can help persuade a consumer to purchase a
new product by reducing the amount of risk associated with the purchase
The objectives of a sales promotion is to increase consumer demand, stimulate market demand,
to get potential buyers to heed a call to action, increase the size of purchases and improve
product availability using media and non-media marketing communications.
• Increased price sensitivity. Consumers wait for the promotion deals to be announced and then
purchase the product. ...
• Quality image may become tarnished: ...
• Merchandising support from dealers is doubtful: ...
• Short-term orientation:
2. The role of sales promotion is to encourage purchase by temporarily improving the value of
a brand. However, it is part of the overall marketing mix and should tie in with advertising,
product performance and pricing. The purpose of advertising is to improve dispositions towards
a brand, while the objective of sales promotion is to translate favourable attitudes into actual
purchase. Advertising cannot normally close a sale because its impact is too far from the point
of purchase, but sales promotion can.
3. Sales promotion is often managed in isolation from other elements of marketing, because
there is the need to gain shelf space through retailer support and in this context it is referred to
as ‘the silent salesman’.

innovation journey is focussed on the five pillars of Trust, Innovation, Smartness, Health and
Modernity. We have come a long way from the pressure cooker to over 600 products today.
Lets look at a few milestones in this product evolution journey
1949 - Pressure Cookers
Denis Papin created the pressure cooker to help housewives soften the meat. We at TTK were
inspired by his story and decided to get the innovation to India. It was when Prestige pressure
cooker was introduced into the Indian Kitchen by the TTK Group, which made cooking safe
for the users; the brand won the trust of the Indian people. Unique Indian cooking needs have
inspired Prestige to develop the Prestige Pressure Pan.
Our constant endeavour to satisfy our customers and to help them cook better has been the
main thrust at Prestige. This has helped us to retain our core value of trust with all our
customers.
1994 - Non-Stick Cookware
Cooking directly affects our overall health and fitness. Another facet of kitchens that was
gaining importance was good looking utensils. Recognising the need of the Indian consumers
to cook healthier food with lesser oil, and also to make the cooking utensils look smarter,
Prestige released the entire a range of non-stick cookware for the Indian Kitchen.
2001 - Gas Stoves & Electrical Appliances
Our users pushed us to innovate and provide them with all their needs since they now had
established trust with the Prestige product family. Our customers desire propelled our R & D
Department to develop Gas Stoves and the entire range of Electrical Appliances like mixers,
grinders, toasters, ovens, grills and more.
2015: Pressure Cookware (Clip On)
Pressure cooking and Prestige are synonymous to Indian consumers and that's what inspires us
to push our boundaries. We realised how important a part pressure cooking was in the daily
cooking regime of the Indian homes and thus was born the idea of Clipon pressure cookware -
with a completely new universal lid interface which can make any cookware in its series into
a pressure cooker. Now you can have a common lid for a saucepan, kadai, and handi and use
the same vessels for Frying, deep frying, sauteing, cooking and pressure cooking. It is India’s
first modular pressure cooking system.
2022: Clean Home Solutions
‘Chasing new frontiers’ is our guiding principle at Prestige. Conquering the Indian Kitchen
prompted us to widen our horizons and thus, Prestige took its plunge into the Cleaning
Solutions Business. Prestige has launched cleaning solutions products under the brand
“CleanHome”.

which follow a fixed scheme in order to collect individual data about one or more specific
topics. Sometimes questionnaires are confused with interviews
Secondary sources:
The secondary source of data is available in company already which helps me to get
information about products and which is published the data was lead which provided me the
areas and locations in the form of beat plan which guided me to the targeted markets.
Chapter 4
The primary objective of marketing research depends upon many things like interviews,
observation, discussion and questionnaires groups to gain customers for providing new
product and services. ...
Secondary objectives
Secondary objectives are 'back up' objectives; things you'd like to accomplish if you don't
achieve your primary objective or things you'd like to accomplish in addition to achieving the
primary objective. They are the little extras; the nice-to-haves

CHAPTER 6
CONCLUSION
No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all
should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions and builds
confidence in their creative spirit!”
This inspiring thought of Ansell Adams is well appreciated by new style marketing
organizations which understand that “boxes and lines” structures can’t drive value in fast
moving environments. No doubt, TTK PRESTIGE . Ltd. is one of them because they believe
in teamwork. Today, the need of the Indian consumer evolves beyond “roti, kapada aur
makaan”. The game in the new-breed furniture industry is no longer furnishing. It is about
“home dressing”. To capture opportunities continually, the company must have a continual
flow of ideas. Transforming a pipeline full of ideas into a value – generating portfolio of
products and services is hard. Herein, lays the importance of co-ordination.
A home is not just a living space but one’s statement of individuality to the world. Big or
small, it’s all about adding own touch to one’s home to make it unique – a perfect blend of
form and function. With the ever increasing number of house-hold items, a highly dynamic and
always on the move job profiles, it is crucial for people to employ efficient storage spaces that
are affordable to purchase. The modular kitchen of today is the epitome of functionality and
multi-purpose aspects. With the rise in income and the infiltration of western luxury goods
have created a cultural shift towards materialism and consumerism.TTK PRESTIGE with its
unique strength provides customer solution that offers the perfect balance of quality and
economy.
CHAPTER 7
RECOMMENDATIONS
AND SUGGESTIONS
Recommendations
1.It’s overwhelming to find out that the organization works in a systematic manner. A blend
of co-ordination will definitely enhance the performance of the company
2.Quality clubbed with reasonable pricing and quick delivery made the product of the
company stand apart. The marketing campaign should focus on this aspect and made
according to its line.
3.The strength of the company is its customized products. This very fact must be
highlighted in the marketing campaign.
4.As the products are reasonably priced, the ambit of the target consumers should be
stretched so that middle class consumers also fit into it.
5.The company must stick to a norm while giving discounts on repeat purchase. This will
certainly help in sales promotion in order to create repeat purchase.
6.In order to have a rapid market access, the company can include dealers, if not retailers
at the moment.
7.The company should focus the marketing strategies on Modular kitchens in the home
furnishing arena as it is moving in the market rapidly.
8.The company can introduce some reward schemes so that a person is benefited after the
fulfillment and over achievement of the target. This is predominantly done to motivate
the sales force and enhance their performance.
9.Other than emphasis on design, craftsmanship and product quality, the company’s unique
strength also lies in its capability as a fully – integrated furniture manufacturer. This
fact should be highlighted during the advertisement campaigns.
10.The need of the hour is aggressive marketing.
Suggestions:
1.Everyone is aware of the growth in wealth and change in lifestyle among Bangalore’s
novae riche. So the marketing campaign should be designed to woo the customers.
2.The company should explore all possible ways in order to aggressively sell its products.
So, the company can register itself in Furniture.co.in as it is India’s biggest online B2B
plan with largest virtual furniture directory
3.The construction industry is in boom. In order to tap the potential market, the Company
can advertise in a magazine named ‘Builders Grid’. This will help in showcasing the
products of the magazine. This can add an extra spice to sales.
4.Feng Shui items are gaining prominence right at the moment. Feng Shui describes the
wood personality as one possessing good decision making skills, idealism, imagination,
compassion and the ability to create change. The fact can help in emotional marketing
of the product and also combat competition from Godrej whose modular kitchens are
made of steel.
5.In today’s crowed market place in order to increase the size of the pie, the Company can
adopt innovative promotional strategies. One of them can be suggested as ‘Dream
House’ road shows. It will help in creating and reinforcing the Company’s identity in
the minds of the consumer.
6.In order to be extra ordinary, the Company has to walk the extra mile. A method named
‘Experimental Marketing’ can be adopted by the Company wherein the prospective
consumers can be invited to visit the showroom and touch and feel the products.
7.Since the competition is intense, so there should be some value addition so as to make
the Company stand apart in the market. One such way is to improvise the customer
service.
8.Consumer is the king in the market. This fact should be deeply rooted in the minds of the
employees. The Company can adopt some ways to listen to the customer’s feedback
which should be noted in writing so that it will help in continual improvement and make
the company to be in the right track always. Moreover, a sense of involvement will be
felt by the customers whish can give the company a cutting edge
