INTRODUCTION
Back in 1982 a business firm was created with the vision to cater to the culinary requirements of the taste buds of the Pakistani nation and at the same time to uphold the qualifications, preconditions and specifications set internationally by the ISO 9001. We commenced with the crunchy product of potato chips of high quality under the brand name of Super Crisp. No doubt the name itself is self-explanatory. This manufactured item was introduces in 1986. Utilizing the latest technical know-how of U.S.A., a landmark was created in the food market which till then, had not seen a Light Meal or a tit bit that could be labeled fresh hygienic, energizing and munchy. Within a short span, it created a niche for itself, while at the same time the substandard products till then rampant in the food market had to suffer a major set back. Ever since the consumers (by patronizing) gave a green signal to the product, the company got the confidence to make headway by adding other products of the same high standard to the initial one. This family went on growing and peanuts, nimko mix (spicy Pakistan snack), Dal Moong (fried lentils) enhanced the product line. We become well aware of the necessity to keep the requirements of the Sweet young Pakistani Kids so we endeavored to manufacture some extruded products solely meant for the kids but never ever forgot to maintain quality control, good taste, freshness and flavor in keeping with the tender taste buds of the little ones. So, in 1992 Potato Stumps, Wheelo Pops, Catty Chins and some other products were put forward in the market. One important thing, which the top management visualized was the cost effectiveness for the products meant for kids (even those meant for the adults are cost effective too). The products manufactured by Tripple-Em gained instant popularity, without promoting it in the usual way that is currently in vogue in the food market. This reality itself speaks volumes that a good product is itself a self assured, a selfproclaimed thing that is readily beheld by the seeing eyes & the eating mouths.

The product life cycle model helps analyzing product and industry maturity stage. A concept that provides a way to trace the stages of a products acceptance from its introduction (birth) to its decline (death). The course of a products sales and profits over its life time. The product life cycle has five distinct stages. Product development begins when the company finds and develop a new product idea during product development the sales are zero and the companys investment cost mount. In the introduction stage the product is introduced to the market through a focused and intense marketing effort designed to establish a clear identity and promote maximum awareness. A new product is first distributed and made available for purchase. Many trial or impulse purchases occur at this stage. High failure rates Little competition Frequent product modification Limited distribution High marketing and production costs Negative profits Promotion focuses on awareness and information Intensive personal selling to channels Growth stage is distinguished by increasing sales and the emergence of competitors. The growth is also characterized by sustaining marketing activities on the vendors side, with customers engaged in repeat purchase behavior patterns. The product sale starts climbing quickly. The early adopters will continue to buy, and late adopters will start following their lead, especially if they hear a favorable word of mouth. Attracted by the opportunities for profits the new competitors will enter the market. They will introduce new product features and the market will expand. The increase in competitors leads to an increase in the number of outlets, and sales jump just to build resellers inventories. Prices remain where they are or fall only slightly.

Increasing rate of sales Entrance of competitors Market consolidation Initial healthy profits Promotion emphasizes brand ads Goal is wider distribution Prices normally fall Development costs are recovered In maturity stage sales velocity is dramatically reduced and sales volume reaches a steady state. At this point mostly loyal customers purchase the product. The stage in which sales growth slows or level off. The maturity stage last longer than the previous stage, and it poses strong challenges to marketing management. Declining sales growth Saturated markets Extending product line Stylistic product changes Heavy promotions to dealers and consumers Marginal competitors drop out Prices and profits fall Niche marketers emerge The lingering effect of competition, unfavorable economic conditions, new fashion trends etc often explains the decline in sales. Sales may plunge to zero, or they may drop to a low level where they continue for many years. Sales decline for many reasons, including technological advances, shift in consumer tastes, and increased competition.

Long-run drop in sales Large inventories of unsold items Elimination of all nonessential marketing expenses Any business is constantly seeking ways to grow future cash flows by maximizing revenue from the sale of product and services cash flow allows a company to maintain viability, invest in new product development and improve its work force all in an effort to acquire additional market share and become a leader in its respective industry. A consistent and sustainable cash flow (revenue) stream from product sales is key to any long term investment, and the best way to attain a stable revenue stream is a cash cow product, leading products that command a large market share in mature markets.

This scheme is just to increase the sales of SUPER CRISP (sales promotion) strategy we are trying to implement.

The new ad campaign is very attractive and tried to increase curiosity of the consumer. Thus in relaunch super crisp target Children, between the ages of 4 to 12, both boys and girls, living anywhere in Pakistan, who love to eat chips and Males and females, between the ages of 13 to 45, living anywhere in Pakistan.

SALES POLICY
SUPER CRISP will make its sales letter believable. It didnt exaggerate customers claims. They include only realistic figures, offers, and bonuses. Because customers claim will not only confuse companys prospect, but also would jeopardize its sales.

INTEGRATED MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS


The concept under which a company carefully integrates and coordinates its many communications channels to deliver a clear, consistent, and compelling message about the organization and its products. OR .When organization deliver only one message to the audience through all communication resources is called IMC.

ADVERTISING PROMOTION

12

The new promotion is designed at re-accustom the consumers with the leading brand of Tripple-Em. i.e. Super Crisp has not been advertised, especially on TV, since from 1995. The objective therefore is to establish a brand recall by first creating a similar ad to the one that was shown in those days, and then establishing a more well-defined consumer base in terms of kids with a fresh one (TVC). SUPER CRISP ad campaign will deliver simultaneously on some major communication resources like T.V and FM-99 etc. PURPOSE The primary objective of the ad campaign in terms of sales is to target our promotional efforts towards kids, and subsequently, families. This way organization can measure sales performance more easily by conducting surveys regarding to popularity and magnetism of the brand among people.

ADVERTISING STRATEGIES
They should be very careful about the tactics of good food advertising. (One by one mentioning below). Ideal Kids (or families) - always seem perfect. The kids are really hip looking, with the hottest fashions and haircuts, and toys. Ideal families are all attractive and pleasant looking - and everyone seems to get along! Ideal kids and families represent the types of people that kids watching the ad would like themselves or their families to be. Family Fun - a product is shown as something that brings families together, or helps them have fun together; all it takes is for mum or dad to bring home the "right" food, and a ho-hum dinner turns into a family party. Excitement - who could ever have imagined that food could be so much fun? One bite of a snack food and you're surfing in California, or soaring on your skateboard! Star Power - your favorite sports star or celebrity is telling you that their product is the best! Kids listen, not realizing that the star is being paid to promote the product. Bandwagon - join the crowd! Don't be left out! Everyone is buying the latest snack food: aren't you? Scale - is when advertisers make a product look bigger or smaller than it actually is.

13

Put Downs - are when you put down your competition's product to make your own product seem better. Facts and Figures - are when you use facts and statistics to enhance your product's credibility. Repetition - advertisers hope that if you see a product, or hear it's name over and over again, you will be more likely to buy it. Sometimes the same commercial will be repeated over and over again. Heart Strings - are ads that draw you into a story and make you feel good, like the McDonalds commercial where the dad and his son are shoveling their driveway and the son treats his poor old dad to lunch at McDonalds when they are done. Sounds Good - music and other sound effects add to the excitement of commercials, especially commercials aimed at kids. Those little jingles that you just can't get out of your head are another type of music used to make you think of a product. Have you ever noticed that the volume of commercials is higher than the sound for the program that follows? Cartoon Characters- Tony the Tiger sells cereal and the Nestles Quick Bunny sells chocolate milk. Cartoon like these make kids identify with products. Weasel Words - by law, advertisers have to tell the truth, but sometimes, they use words that can mislead viewers. Look for words in commercials like: "Part of..." "The taste of real..." "Natural..." "New, better tasting....." "Because we care..." There are hundreds of these deceptive sayings - how many more can you think of? Omission - is where advertisers don't give you the full story about their product. For example, when a Pop Tart claims to be part" of a healthy breakfast, it doesn't mention that the breakfast might still be healthy whether this product is there or not. Are You Cool Enough? - This is when advertisers try to convince you that if you don't use their products, you are a nerd. Usually advertisers do this by showing people that looking not cool trying a product and then suddenly becoming hip looking and doing cool things.

PRODUCT POSITIONING
Product Differentiation The aim of the ad promotion is to relaunch Super Crisp as the original and the leader of chips brand. This idea is aimed at bringing back the super crisp of a now very extensive range of snack food variants. Also aimed to differentiate the product according to the different segmentation Brand Image The image of the brand has not been distorted a great deal, as it is possessing a unique packaging scheme. However, the stress on high quality has been kept prominent, but the introduction of more flavors and more quantity (30gm), (60gm) and (200gm) will more effective. Product Life Cycle The product was at its maturity before these promotions, but going towards declining as the company was satisfied with its sales and it also did not advertise. Therefore it relaunched from that stage with modification, which has a different packaging and a variant in size. Product Classification The core center of the campaign is on the main Super Crisp brand, that is, the two Super Crisp flavors; cheese, ketchup . These three variants will be relaunch from now.

PUNCH LINES
Punch lines are one of the best tactics in ad promotion these punch line remains in consumers mind and utilize as brand identification just like jingles of the brand. Our punch line which we introduced in our advertisement is

You cant hide the Crunch!!

PACKAGING
15

We are introducing three more flavors in super crisp, ketchup and cheese. We are also increasing the quantity of the chips as well as with the quality of chips like 30GM, 60GM. Moreover we fascinate our customers with SUPER BUMPER a scheme in which our customers win PLAY STATION, CELL PHONE and lots of OTHER BUMPER PRIZES, just save the coupon no. on the back of every super crisp and monthly wins lots of bumper prizes. The new packaging suggested by the ad promotion for the relaunch is not very different from the original one. It has been suggested that the primary color scheme be kept the same with minor differences to create both a new look, and to keep the recall element in mind.

MEDIA SELECTION
Medias which have been chosen for conveying message is television, radio, newspaper and billboards. These Medias are highlighted below. Television Advertisement The promotion assembles on one TV commercial, which being broadcast regularly on TV. This ad is very different and interesting as compare to the 90s ad we basically target the little kids and try to create curiosity among the T.V seekers.

Radio Advertisements

16

There are two radio ads for this promotion which shall be run simultaneously; one on FM-99 and FM-100, and the other is on FM-89. The first radio ad based on new flavors which we introduce and about increasing quality of the chips while the other is based on the SUPER BUMPER scheme which we introduce so that public be familiar with this scheme. Newspaper Advertisement we basically wants associations of customers so for building more perception regarding our brand we are introducing the most popular character of ROTER from the original brand Tripple-tm launch and the punch line which we introduce only to capture consumer brain regarding brand.

Billboards Advertisement

For billboard advertisement we prepare special ad which is only for billboard in which we try to convey the message to the people that SUPER CRISP will explore all the world along you and the new flavors mention on the title.

Approximately cost of the electronic and print Medias promotion is cited as follows. While the current GDP of super crisp is 37% while we spend 15% of GDP on the cost of Medias communication. MEDIA COST

Media Sources TV Radio Newspaper Billboards Total

Cost Rs. 6,314,276 1,242,789 751,176 192,114 Rs. 85,003,55

CONCLUSION
Before relaunching, SUPER CRISP was going towards declining because it didnt overcome its weaknesses. So every product when launch in the world it wouldnt hope for declining but it decline cause it didnt beat competitors and fail to build association in customers mind. To be success in the market there is the rule of beating your competitors, and satisfy customers by providing more values as they are expecting and for repositioning the existing products or services you have to overcome your weaknesses for starting new life of your product.
