Future Plans

Interview conducted with Getit CEOJaspreetBindra

We are focussed on transforming GetitInfomedia to a full-scale digital play: CEO JaspreetBindraJune 10, 2013

Local search platformGetitInfomedia(previously known as GetitInfoservices) offers services across print, online and voice media and is present in more than 35 cities in the country. The firm, which is supported by Malaysias Astro (as a strategic investor) besides VC investor Helion Venture Partners, has recentlyacquiredInfomediaYellowPagesand AskMe from Network18 group and has added a new monetisation channel with the launch of its online marketplace Getit Bazaar. Techcircle.in caught up with JaspreetBindra, CEO, GetitInfomedia, to talk about the companys strategy, funding, his views on peer group firm Just Dial, which is going through a successful public listing, and more. Edited excerpts:The company recently got government approval for a large round of funding. What will you use the money for?This piece of news that came a few days ago is not about a fresh fundraise; its not true that the funds came through now. Astro (of Malaysia) has been a strategic investor in the company for the last couple of years and it has been funding us over this period. The total amount mentioned in the FIPB approval is for the money that Astro has been and will be putting in GetitInfomedia in tranches. With a strategic investor there is never a format or fixed amount of investment. It depends on the companys plans and requirements. To give you an example, we acquired Infomedia recently. Money was needed for the acquisition and our strategic investor brought in more. However, I would like to add that the space is very exciting; with a recent IPO in the same space, there is a lot of interest. Astro is our investor and is interested to invest more. The FIPB approval just makes it easier to raise money from them.What about getting new investors on board?Again, a strategic investor works differently compared with a VC investor. A strategic investor wont just give you $100 million; it is done on regular intervalsmonth on month or quarter on quarter. Astro holds a majority share in the company.Currently and in a foreseeable future, we are thinking only of Astro (as an investor). Helion is already an investor. But apart from these, no new investors would be coming.You have struck a few acquisitions in the recent past. Are there more in the pipeline?We have been investing in digital and mobile products for the last two years and will continue to do so. We believe that the market is moving towards digital. From an acquisition point of view, we have a vision to grow both organically and inorganically. We just acquired InfomediaYellowPages and AskMe and obviously it will take us some time to integrate the companies. But we will be opportunistic. We are open to consider other similar acquisitions but nothing is imminent

Domain names are formed by the rules and procedures of the Domain Name System (DNS). Any name registered in the DNS is a domain name.Also called a child domain, a domain that is part of a larger domain name in DNShierarchy. DNS hierarchy consists of the root-level domain at the top, underneath which are the top-level domains, followed by second-level domains and finally sub domains. For example, in the domain name webopedia.internet.com, "webopedia" is a sub domain of the larger second-level domain "internet.com."

MARKETING STRATEGY AND ANALYSIS

A marketing strategy is a process that can allow an organization to concentrate its limited resources on the greatest opportunities to increase sales and achieve a sustainable competitive advantage.

Any organization that wants to exchange its products or services in the market place successfully should have a Strategic Marketing plan to guide the allocation of its resources. A strategic marketing plan usually evolves from an organizations overall corporate strategy and serves as a guide for specific marketing programs and policies. Marketing strategy is based on a situation analysis- a detailed assessment of the current marketing conditions facing the company, its product lines, or its individual brands. From this situation analysis, a firm develops an understanding of the market and the various opportunities it offers, the competition and the market segments or target markets the company wishes to pursue.

Marketing strategy is the complete and unbeatable plan, designed specifically for attaining the marketing objectives of the firm/business unit. The marketing objectives indicate what the firm wants to achieve; the marketing strategy provides the design for achieving them.

For example, if the marketing objectives of a business unit stipulate that next year, it should achieve a sales revenue ofRs. 1,000 crore and a net profit of 15 percent of sales revenue, it is the job of marketing strategy to indicate how and wherefrom this sale and profit will come, which product lines/products/brands will accomplish this task and how.

Marketing strategy forms an integral part of marketing planning. A marketing strategy is most effective when it is an integral component of corporate strategy, defining how the organization will successfully engage customers, prospects, and competitors in the market arena. It is partially derived from broader corporate strategies, corporate missions, and corporate goals. As the customer constitutes the source of a company's revenue, marketing strategy is closely linked with sales. A key component of marketing strategy is often to keep marketing in line with a company's overarching mission statement.

Marketing Techniques

Technique 1: SMS BlastThis is by far the most effective marketing technique to harass your customers. When done strategically (i.e. 6 smses per day for 30 days as prescribed by Dr Butt-ra), it ensures that your target of making 6 Lac impressions has been met. It is immaterial whether the sms-es are being deleted without being read it is still counted as an impression thus contributing to your KRAs. In fact, your efforts, combined with that of the banks and telecom companies, ensure that all sms-es starting with AD-, TM-, etc reach your customers inbox by the dozen and they are prompted to activate DND. Irrespective of the result of this activity, you will sleep peacefully with a sense of accomplishment.Technique 2: E-mail BlastThis technique is not as effective as the SMS Blast since the number of internet users (using e-mail) in India is much less than mobile subscribers. However, this technique is normally used to reach out to the corporates and quite rightly so. The average IQ of a corporate office-goer is less than Paris Hiltons and they clearly have no sense of segregating spam from genuine mails. Also, Googles algorithm is outdated and cannot differentiate between the two. While you, the marketing stalwart, would normally delete promotional e-mails from unknown parties promptly from your inbox, you are right in assuming that the dumber ones out there dont do so. Here are the results of a survey we conducted: 1. 95% of respondents devote 1 hour at tea-time specifically browsing, categorizing, archiving and sharing all the promotional mails sent by you and several other brands. 72% of them are also willing to sacrifice their personal time for this activity. 2. 87% said that they cant figure out from the senders name and subject that the mail is promotional in nature. 3. 79% said that they do not know how to Report Spam. They have been trying to trace the button for ages but havent been able to do so. Clearly, people love your e-mail blasts. Continue the good work.Technique 3: Weekly NewslettersThis marketing technique is used more as an engagement tool. It also serves as a reminder that the brand exists. Most of the content in such newsletters revolves around how to plan your weekend, best shopping deals, etc. Clearly, people out there have no idea on how to plan their weekends. What would they do without your newsletters? It makes perfect business sense to hire 3 people to create a newsletter which has an average impression time of 0.2 seconds per viewer. An additional recommendation from our side: Please hire 1 techie to create a force field around the newsletter which can penetrate spam blockers. It will ensure that the balance 90% users also get to see the newsletter. In fact, you along with other weekend guides offer multiple ways to plan weekends and it offers your users a gamut of choices to select the one that will go to the Trash Folder.Technique 4: PamphletsThis technique should be used so that we do not lose touch with our Indian Culture. It is important to continue certain traditions so that our coming generations can see how marketing was done before the internet came into being. People love collecting pamphlets. In fact, our survey revealed that more than 90% of people actually stack them in their living room to show-off to their guests. To our surprise, we also discovered that in 80% of these households, the homemaker or the housemaids were running a conspiracy to hide the pamphlets before they reach the reader terming them as trash. We interviewed few of them and they admitted that these pamphlets usually slipped out of the newspapers and fell on the ground where the sweeper would simply sweep them away. The ones who did get these pamphlets, would throw away the poor quality ones in the trash and save the ones which looked attractive. However, after a few hours, they could not recall where they had kept the piece of paper! And this is the most shocking result of the survey 76% percent of male respondents said that they hide the pamphlets before it reaches their wives because most of them carry attractive shopping offers! Weve only listed a few of the techniques which will help you gain stardom. Please feel free to add to this list so that us marketers can achieve marketing nirvana. [For the clueless, this post is pure sarcasm ;-)]

Had to work for 5 6 hours in the sun

Had to travel a lot

People were unwilling to talk.

People were very much hesitant to cooperate for the research. Many people were unwilling to take a part in the research

Future Scope

Tie-up with Google: Speaking with MediaNama, Gupta informed that the company will act as an additional sales channel for Google, to reach Indian SMEs. He said that although Google Ad Words was available as a self service platform, it was not scalable till an intermediary was involved to reach out to SMEs, specially in a market like India. Getit will bundle its own products with Ad Words. He added that the program would include management of the entire Ad words program. The fact is that making the campaign is easy but SMEs are concerned whether their campaign would be effective, what the cost would be, how much time theyll need to spend and the effort theyll need to make.

He said that since GETIT already understands their business, was easier to reach out to them and manage and optimise campaigns. GETIT claims to sign-up 1.2 million SMEs for listing per year and has a sales force of 800 certified professionals for outreach. The company soft launched the service last month and is about to register around 1,000 SMEs for Google services. Getit would offer additional services like building landing pages, and websites, with bundled packages.

CHAPTER-8CONCLUSION

According to the market size of India, it is going to be the third largest nation of internet users in the next two years. This project was about the getitinfomedia which due to intense competition from its competitors is continuously losing its market share. So in this project different parameters on which the sale of getitinfomedia depends are studied and analysed from the consumers perspective. The final outcome of the project is that the parameters which make decision regarding the purchase of website on yellow page are Price , Advertisement and Awareness. Electronic market is a totally unpredictable market and the organisation should be over-cautious of any complaints that come in website on yellow page as it includes the sentiments of shop keeper or retail marketer. So the company should take every step possible to contain these problems which in some way or the other affects the sale of getitinfomedia and its retailers.

CHAPTER-9RECOMMENDATIONSThe recommendations for the company for further growth and profit are as follows:Getitinfomedia should come up with schemes for customers along with retailers as it would be a real Just Dial to the sales and also it will help the company to get back its lost customer. During the survey it was found that many of the retailers were uninterested because they were not aware about the benefit e- marketing.

Also it was seen through the survey that price is not a major concern for the consumers. The consumers should be explained about it through advertisements in order to make them aware

The organization should schedule these kinds of surveys on a more regular basis as at this point of time JUST DIAL and SULEKHA.COM is really capturing the market and the organization should take viable steps to meet the expectations of its customers
