Hey all..as if nyone actually reads my blog!! lol..
i hear that no matter how gud a product is..it dosnt sell unless backed by an excellent marketing strategy..be it the young minded cool Axe effect ADs..or the dobara mat poochna mint..! i love the creativity involved in these things n i feel i wana be a part of it too..but ones crazy colg ideas mgt sound funny bt pbbly dont have the selling point in em.
Nywz i wanted to share my marketing experience.. of when i usually go to buy some vegetables in the weekly "Mangal Bazaar"..As soon as i enter the road alongside which the market forms - thela by thela - in the evenin.. i find cars jam packed n no parking nywhr near bt luckily someones early enuf to be leaving his space for me..After alot of honking n swearing i gt my luxurious car in it..From there starts a battle for finding the cheapest yet the highest quality veggies..So i venture alongwid my friend cum housekeeper who helps me differentiate between the methiss n the palakss..The first few moments i spend there r jus aimlessly wandering about.. finding prices n nt buying.. jus to let the sellers knw dat - i m a regular here buddy dnt try to fool me..!!But they r more regular than me..so they alwz exaggerate the price according to the person asking for it..n i try overhearing prices so dat i knw wat they actually are b4 jumping in to buy some..
so i go over to the tamatar wala n ask the price of the tomatoes in a way as if it was my family that started growing these shiny red overtly expensive(nowadays) veggies..hearing the price i make the - oh so expensive face- n move on...even though i buy them at the same price from anodr guy later..Then i find the leafy vegetables wala..n quietly pikup a bundle of...ahem...umm..well..this is methi rgt?? i ask my partner secretly n upon his confirmatn proudly ask hw much is this methi for..n buy half a kilo for watevr price..All this time while ur buying stuff.. there are all kinds n varieties of insects who love to play in ur hair or evn in ur shirt..dey are pbbly the only non discriminating species who bother evyrone alike..n u have to reach down ur shirt trying to get rid of dem when the nearby lady gives u the dirrttyy luk n turns away..Later after hassling ppl over reducing the prices of diff vegetables n having brought most of em..i realise its been over half an hour..So i quickly recount the stuff n chk if nythngs left thereaftr i ask my partner to wait in the car wid the big bag full of polybags which by d way i m totally against..so dat i go n get some healthy fruits..
Buying the fruits is the part i like to do..theres less variety n its easy to buy n ppl dnt fool u much with fruits..So i buy some bananas n apples..n to my surprise i even saw pineapples which arent a common sight here..so i try some before buying it..then the pineapple guy takes nodr quarter hour to carefully peel n then cut it into nice tasty luking pieces..finally i frantically search for the car..which i 4gt aftr all the running around bt evn aftr finally entering my car i have to make my way n swim thru the latecomers while listnin to - the road to nowhere..!!
