11. INITIAL STRATEGIES OF MAGGI
•Maggi has faced a lot of hurdles in its journey in India
•The basic problem the brand faced is the Indian Psyche.
•Initially Nestle tried to position the Noodles in the
platform of convenience targeting the working women.
•However, the sales of maggi was not picking up despite
of heavy Media Advertising.
•To overcome this NIL conducted a research.

12. (CONT.)
•NIL’s promotions positioned the noodles as a ‘convenience
product
for mothers & as a ‘fun’ product for children.
•The noodle’s tagline , ’Fast to Cook, Good to Eat’ was also
in keeping with this positioning.
•They promoted the product further by distributing free
samples, giving
• gifts on return of empty packets ,etc.
• Effective Tagline Communication.

13. PRODUCT DIFFERENTIATION
• Product differentiation strategy means how a
particular product is different from others on the
basis of:
• Form, Features Performance quality Convenience
Durability, Reliability, Style……….
• the form shape, size, physical structure of Maggi is
very attractive as it is easy to carry, comes in various
packs and sizes according to customers convenience..
• The various features of Maggi noodles are first of all
its perfect taste according to the Indian touch &
spices

14. • performance level of Maggi is excellent there are
various other brands offered target market, but Maggi
prevailed as the winner out of them..
• Quality is the main factor on which emphasizes as it is
Maggi’s main strength which provides Maggi an edge
over its competitors ..
• Maggi products are durable as due to its preparation
these products are easy to store, have a long shelf life
and can be stored at any given temperatures which is
tested and approved.
• Reliability is also one of Maggi’s strength, as one can
always rely on a Maggie product for a particular taste
which it guaranties..
•
• It is an Indian customer’s psyche that “whatever looks
good and feels good would be of good quality” so Maggi
packs had been designed keeping in mind the same
concept

across urban markets, has slipped consistently between
December ’09 to July ’10. While Maggi instant noodles
had a 90.7% share in December ’09, the share dropped
to 86.5% in July ’10 on an all-India basis..
• Maggi’s market share is certain to get impacted , but
add that Nestle has the potential to expand the Rs
1,300-crore instant noodles category – which itself is
growing at a rapid 15% annually

51. TO conclude…
• Here are some who leads called market leader and
there are some who follows, called follower. Maggi
has been a leader for decades and it is Maggi who
educated Indian consumer about noodles.
• Of course, their market share might got depleted in
course of time, by the entry of some very big players
but Maggi will not sit silent. They will also reinforce
their activities which will ultimately benefit the
consumer.
• People will definitely taste for a change, but it is very
difficult to change ones taste bud and the top of
mind game, as Maggi has become a generic name in
India for their long presence…..

52. SUGGESTIVE PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES
- Focus on creating distinctive image, based on twin
benefits of “INSTANT” and “HEALTHY” with
emphasis on health conscious and rural market.
- Conduct promotional campaigns at schools in small
towns with population more than 10,000.
- Strengthen the distribution channel of the rural
areas within 100 km of all the metros.
- Foray into other food products like chips,
chocolates etc under its sole brand name would not
only help in Brand extension but will also enhance
Maggi’s market share.
- Launch new advertisement campaign (T.V., Radio
etc) with the Brand Ambassador.
