Mrs. Veena Bedekar has explained how Advertising plays an important role to get more
business. Advertising is equally as important as Sales and Marketing. Advertising makes
brand awareness by making business popular by marketing it online (social media, digital
marketing, email marketing etc.) and offline media (outdoor ads, billboards, radio, ads on
buses and rickshaws etc).

She has highlighted following points of advertising:


Misconception & Hesitation: Some marketers think that spending on print, radio,
outdoor, tv ads are costly and are short term which don't provide good ROI because they
don't know the impact advertising on business.
Importance of Advertising: How advertising is important to make brand popular and
increase revenue by effective media planning by targeting users by age group,
geographical area, gender, language etc.
Meaning of Advertising: It starts with market research to find target customers,
competitors, demand of customer, demand & supply in the market, scope of business
etc.
Medium of Advertising: Advertising Stationary (visiting cards, letter, billboards etc.), Print
Media (Newspaper, Magazine, Bulletin etc.), Outdoor Media (Hoarding, Bus, Train etc.),
Digital Media (Search Engines, Email, Website, App etc.), Electronic Media (TV, Radio
etc.), Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Blog etc.), and Customized or Innovative

2.Savings Vs Investment
Prof Raj Kumar has effectively explain how Savings and Investment are different from
each other. He is also explained how Investment can provide long term benefit in future
by smart savings.
Savings: Saving is the amount remaining after debiting expenses from income.
Old way of saving
Income – Expense = Saving
New way of saving
Income-Saving = Expenses
He has explain how we are good savers but bad investors. He has also explain how can
we overcome the inflation by properly investing money for future gains.

Inflation: Inflation grows in India at the rate of 9-10% so we have to control our expenses
to sustain the future purchasing power. Inflation eats away our money and reduces out
purchasing power.
Example: Mr. Sharma saved Rs 100 today to buy grocery next year and kept money at
home. Next year cost of grocery increases to Rs. 110 due to inflation so Mr. Sharma has
to add Rs 10 more because money has not grown as inflation so he is bearing a lot of
10%.
Good Example:
Value of Rs 100,000 saved in 1990 is Rs 14,693 in 2013 at 8% inflation rate. It means a
person who saved Rs 100,000 in 1990 and didn’t invest to gain some returns on it is
We Tube
actually beating a loss of Rs 75,407 in 13 years.
2.Savings Vs Investment
Why do we fail in Investment:
• Lack of Financial Literacy
• Ignorance

So we have to invest our money in various assets like equity market, real estate, gold,
insurance policies etc. to cope up with inflation rate. Suppose inflation rate is 10% then
we have to increase our investment at least 10% to sustain the future purchasing power.

Suppose Mr. X is making an FD of Rs 100,000 in SBI at rate of interest 9% and if inflation


rate is 10% then Mr. X is actually beating a loss of 1% on his investment. So Mr. X has to
gain a return of at least 11% to get some gains from investment.

He is given better solution to overcome from this problem by following formula:


Return = Inflation. No Gain
Return > Inflation . Gain
Return < Inflation . Lost

The above example has proved that if we don’t gain at least at the rate of inflation then
we have to bear a loss which can be a threat to our investment.

We Tube
2.Savings Vs Investment
Investment Solution:
• We need to put our savings into productive use by investing it in diversified fields like
gold, real estate, insurance policies, retirement-plans, equity markets, money back
guaranteed plant etc.

• Invest money in the early stage of life. If we start investing money at the age of 20+ then
we would be able to get higher returns in future.

• Young people should take higher risk at they have good risk tolerance/appetite

• Old people should take lower risk by investing in short term investments.

• Our investment should be as per goal/objective not as per market or environment.

• Never invest borrowed funds

• Don’t splurge all what you earn save for rainy day

3.Social Media & Pricing Advantage
Prof. Suruchi Yadav has explain about Social Media helps business to grow online. She
has compared Social Media with traditional advertising in terms of reach, cost
effectiveness, speed etc.
Traditional marketing is costly and we can’t target users based on their interest, age, geo
location, mobile devices, qualifications, designation which quite possible through social
media advertising. The cost per enquiry generated through traditional marketing
campaigns are very high if compared with social media marketing.

We can have a mass reach across the globe with social media marketing. We customize
and can have real time monitoring on social media marketing campaigns but it is not
possible with traditional advertising like outdoor, tv, print, billboard etc.

Social Media Marketing can be done through:


Social Networking Sites (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, Instagram etc.)
• Blog
• Forum
• Press Release
• Question and Answers Sites
• Review Sites
• Video Sites
• Image Sites
We Tube
3.Social Media & Pricing Advantage
Why every business needs Social Media?
Whenever business shares their news through print media, tv, radio, billboards, outdoor
ads then they create only one-to-one conversation i.e. users don’t get authority to
directly comment on their product or services.

Social media quite different than traditional advertising as it creates two way
communication i.e. users directly communicating with company regarding feedbacks and
suggestions so that companies get change to improve their product or services which
ultimately satisfies more consumers.

Every business needs to create their social profiles across social networking sites to
interact directly with consumers. Businesses can ask their consumers about their product
or services by conducting surveys or polls on social media platforms. In this way
businesses get a chance to improve their product or services.

Some companies are getting suggestions from their users by offering them reward which
helps them to make innovative products. Some companies have successfully
implemented such programs on social media platforms.

We Tube
3.Social Media & Pricing Advantage
How companies market themselves on Social Media?
Companies should have social media profiles and then they can conduct a keyword
search on social media profiles to monitor real time conversation happening in their
niche. If companies find that some users are looking for their services then they can
direclty market their products to users. They can get some ROI by investing a small
amount on social media marketing.

Companies can offer discounts on social media platform by asking users to promote their
content on their personal profiles by using post like or hashtags. It helps companies to
reach mass audience.

Let’s see how it happens. Suppose Mr. X has 500 friends and we ask him to share our
content on his wall then the content will be visible to 500 friends and if some Mr. X’
friends like that content and again shared it then content may reach to again thousands
of people. In this way a brand can be reached to mass audience by running a smart social
media campaign. We should reward such users by offering discounts, coupons,
accessories, gadgets etc.

AMEX had run one campaign got mass reach on social media. In this way social media is
become one of the leading advertising platform which can’t be ignored if you want to
become a successful in future.

not changed; it is the consumers who are changing. It is because of sheer necessity that
brands have been launching digital-only campaigns.

Sridhar further highlighted, “People want to be active and not passive today. They want
to react, and the digital platform allows them to interact in the form of Like, Share and
Comment. Earlier, TV showed a lot of emotional content and digital was used for
commerce and transactional purposes.

Speaking on this, Anshul Sushil, CEO and Co-founder at Boring Brands explained, “We
usually work with start-ups and they are run by a bunch of intelligent people. These guys
believe in doing unconventional stuff and understand the value of being different. The
entrepreneurs of today want to capture the audience who is online and they give the
agency the freedom to do whatever it takes to engage these users.

Yogesh Gadekar, Senior Account Manager, Gozoop said, “If your marketing efforts are
not yielding any substantial results, chances are you're not reaching out to your
audience in a way that they would like you to. Marketing is nothing but adapting with
the changing consumer behavior in real time.

and halt any marketing activities any time one wants. News Wire
