Key Answers & Strategies

Pepsi’s Edge: Target younger demographics via social media campaigns (e.g., collaborations with TikTok influencers). Introduce regional flavors (e.g., "Pepsi Masala" for North India).
Coca-Cola’s Move: Focus on health trends with "Coca-Cola Zero Sugar" and CSR initiatives (e.g., clean water projects in rural areas).
Dabur’s Ayurveda Advantage
Strategy: Monetize India’s traditional wellness culture. Launch limited-edition products like "Dabur Chyawanprash for Immunity" and tie-ups with yoga influencers.

Procter & Gamble’s FMCG Dominance
Tactic: Leverage affordability with small sachets (e.g., "Pampers Baby Care Mini Kits" for low-income families).
Innovation: Use AI for personalized ads (e.g., "Omo Fabric Wash" campaigns tailored to regional languages).
Market Entry for Newcomers
Rule 1: Partner with local distributors (e.g., Reliance Retail for P&G products).
Rule 2: Adapt packaging for price sensitivity (e.g., smaller, cheaper iterations of Dabur’s products).
Crisis Management
Example: If a brand faces a PR scandal (e.g., contamination claims), launch a "Transparency Tour" to showcase manufacturing processes.
Winning Moves in India 2024
Cultural Nods: Use festivals (Diwali, Holi) for campaigns (e.g., Coca-Cola’s "Holi Cola" limited edition).
Digital First: Invest in UPI-based e-commerce integrations (e.g., P&G’s "Surf Excel" partnerships with Flipkart).
Sustainability: Promote eco-friendly packaging to align with India’s "Plastic-Free Cities" initiative.
Final Tip: Track metrics like "Brand Trust Score" and "Regional Penetration Rate" to outperform rivals.
