Overview
The world has changed: power has shifted from companies to cus-tomers, and the traditional ways marketers controlled their mes-sages are gone. To succeed today, marketing needs to transformcustomers expect companies to change. The only way for a com-
pany to earn attention and loyalty is to develop an authentic andrelevant relationship.
These days customers trust each other far more than theytrust a companys brand. Don Peppers, cofounder of Peppers &Rogers Group, explains the new dynamic in this way: Peoplesfriends and colleagues have always played a role in shaping theiropinions. However, social media makes it easier and more conven-ient than it ever was to access and act on those opinions. This de-velopment is putting a nail in the coffin of companies that buildtheir business on a single unique proposition and then throw it outthere to see how many people will bite on it. Flexible relationship
marketing programs represent table stakes to participate in theeconomy these days.While economic volatility has crimped marketing budg-
ets, the business case for innovative relationship marketing pro-grams is more compelling than ever. Social networks present valu-able new reservoirs of customer intelligence for companies that canaccess and harvest the data. Always-on mobile communications andsmart phones can facilitate more relevant interactions, greater cus-tomer advocacy and significant boosts to bottom lines. Savvy busi-ness leaders can thrive in this new marketplace, but they need tounderstand the changing environment.
Peppers & Rogers Group and Digital Cement (subsid.Pitney Bowes Inc.) recently completed a study, Relationship Mar-keting 3.0, to assess how marketers are responding to the shiftinglandscape. The online survey was sent to senior level 1to1 Media
subscribers, and over 650 marketing executives responded. Thestudy shows that there is a serious disconnect between theory and
practice. For instance, 88 percent of the participants stated that theyare involved in relationship marketing and understand the impor-tance of building long-term relationships with customers. However,less than a quarter (24%) report they arespending the majority of their budget on enhancing relationshipswith retention efforts.
The New Realities of Relationship Marketing
Companies have acknowledged that say and spray mass commu-nications techniques may not be as effective as they used to be.And, while many companies have begun to embrace 1to1 commu-nications by tailoring messages and offers to different customersegments, this is no longer sufficient.
Customers increasingly get their brand messages from other cus-tomers and peersnot just from the brand itself. Peppers explains,The relatively small number of people with the most connectionsin a network exert influence through the cascading effect. If theseinfluencers say something positive about your product, it cascadesthrough the network. However, negative opinions and reviews frominfluencers also cascade.To be successful in the socially connectedworld, companies need to be aware of these cascades. Peppers con-tinues, Social networks are like the weather:
you cannot predict them any distancein advance. No matter how good youranalytics are, you cannot know the
future of social networks. In this sce-nario the only defense against an un-
just review or a cascade of bad news isyour organizations reputation for
trustworthiness.To build this kind of trust, companies need to know
more than their customers name and zip codes; they need to un-derstand all of the spheres of influence that affect their most valu-able customers, and then integrate that understanding into what,when, how and why they communicate with individual customers.In short, companies need to deploy relationship marketing 3.0.
Companies that thrive in this new relationship market-
ing ecosystem evaluate, improve and manage their relationshipmarketing capabilities in a more iterative, integrated and flexiblefashion than their competitors, notes Sharad Verma, President of
relationship marketing company Digital Cement, a Pitney Bowessubsidiary. Doing so enables companies to control what they cancontrol while establishing stronger, more durable foundations for
brand messages that a growing number of customers control andconvey through their own channels.
Conclusion
Relationship marketing would be much easier if a tactic could bedeployed and then put on auto-pilot for months. But it would also
be much less effective given the realities of the social media revo-lution, a volatile economy, and the adoption of smart devices andubiquitous connectivity.
Many of the examples cited in this paper reflect the im- portance of an iterative, integrated and flexible approach to rela-tionship marketing, often in dramatic fashion. Effective relation-ship marketing programs of this era do not have to be as dramatic.Instead, they quietly cultivate trust through relevant communica-tions across multiple channels with ever-increasing precision.These programs steadily replace incentive-fueled offers withvalue-added insights and information that fulfill each brandsunique promise, says Erickson. They limit the risks that flourishin the new relationship marketing ecosystem, and help companiesexploit new opportunities.
Despite the opportunities flexible relationship marketingprovides and the growing customer demand for these capabilities,the majority of companies have yet to leverage this opportunity.
Our Relationship Marketing 3.0 study reveals that mar-keters are trying, but just arent sure what to do. If you keep your
head in the sand, because you arent sure which way to look, when
you pull it out, you are going to be in trouble, concludes Peppers.Your customers are out there building relationships with friends,co-workers and your competition, and if you arent at the party,dont expect an invitation in the future.

in the piece? As someone who isnt an avid
gamer, I was sort of shocked when I found
out that this practice was common. I equated
it to watching a trailer for a movie that you
are excited to see in the theater. You run out
and spend $15, but the scenes you were ex-
cited to see in the trailer arent actually in the
movie.The textures in game are in no way the
quality of these incredibly hyper real trail-
ers. Yet it doesnt matter. Its such an enter-
tainment, story-driven vehicle that it doesnt
matter.
There is a sense of them trying to pull a fastone, but if you know in advance that thetrailer is nothing like the game it excites youin a different way. You look at it as its ownstand alone thing not associated to the game
at all. You can appreciate it for the trailer, ittells a good story and it excites me. There area lot of factors that go into how you want to
portray your game. Pre rendered is usuallykind of a turnkey solution, you just tell anoutside vendor what you want and theyll goand do their own thing. The game companycan focus on working on the game. If you dothe trailer in engine, you have to hire on allthese other animators; its a lot more workinternally rather than externally The game
comes together in thetenth or eleventh hour andyou have to start the buildup for the marketing ofthe game months before
the game comes out. So if gamers understand this,why is it such a debate? Why should gamers carewhether the marketing of a game is done pre ren-dered or in engine? It is kind of a cop out for com-
panies to try to make their product look better. Ifyou are promised one thing and you get somethingelse that is going to cause controversy. If you aretrying to make the game look like a movie and thegame looks nothing like that, the gamer is going tofeel cheated because it doesnt live up to theirexpectations
GamedromeGamedrome is a international meet where all theBig Players of the Games like EA sports, RPG
Warcraft hold a Global Tournament of WarcraftDota, Counter Strike, FIFA, etc. and an UltimateChampion of Game is selected.During this tournament, every gaming player in
the industry have an opportunity to market their
new arrivals with a Unique Gaming Video, which
acts as a trailer to the game.

through your DVR,
catching up on your
favorite television
program after a hard
day at work. A com-
mercial comes on and you are ready to
hit fast forward on the remote until you
realize its a commercial for a hot new
video game about to come out next
month. The game looks intense and
incredibly real. You think, damn I cant
wait till the game comes out so I can run
out and buy it. Heres the rub, the trailer
that you watched may have little to no
actual game play in it. The trailer often
is merely a marketing tool, a great visual
element to help tell the story of what the
game will be, but isnt exactly what the
game will look like and scenes from the
trailer certainly wont be in the
game. The question I have is, does it
matter? Should the game play and the
storytelling / marketing pieces be the
same or should the storytelling / market-
ing piece evoke the look of the world,
but not have actual game play involved

Facts
of
Marketing
Once your business has a solid
customer base, it can cease
marketing. Fact: Perhaps you
can cut down on general mar-
keting but you must maintain
contact with your customer base
or someone will take them
away.
The more data you have, andthe more you know about yourcustomers, the better your mar-keting will be. This data isavailable from many publishedsources, or you can collect yourown by asking your customerslots of questions.
used with the brand name appearing be-hind it. Though the original logos werenever retired (you can still purchasevintage gear with the original logos), a
little over a decade after its inception thecompany opted to drop the brand name infavor of the Solo Swoosh.
AppleToday, Apple has one of the most recog-nizable logos in the world, but the com-panys first logo was a complicated mess
featuring Isaac Newton sitting under atree, apple dangling above his head. Thetoo-complex logo was scrapped after lessthan a year in favor of the iconic rainbowapple with a bite missing. When Steve
Jobs returned to the helm of the companyin 1997, the old rainbow was ditched infavor of a sleek, stylish monochrome ap- ple which now features prominently onevery product the company sells.
Xerox
You have to hand it to Xerox: they havecome back from so many challenges from market changes to accounting scan-dals to keep on doing business morethan a century after the company was
founded. These days it seems like theyspend more time trying to keep their com-
pany name from becoming a common
verb than actuallydoing business, butthey bravely soldieron. Their most re-
cent logo reflectsthe companys de-sire to prove that they are more thanjust copiers.
IBMName changes, mergers and changingtimes amounted to a century of logoupdates from IBM. However, the mostrecent logo has remained in place fornearly forty years now while the ma-chines sold by IBM have changeddramatically.

comprehen-sive embodi-ment of eve-rything the
company stands for. The best logos arerecognizable, memorable and let youknow what the company is about with just a glance. But even the biggestcompanies in the world have to changewith the times and grow as their brandgrows. While rebranding is an expen-sive (and sometimes risky) undertak-ing, these companies have thrown cau-
tion to the wind and changed their lo-gos and most of them have done itover and over.
PepsiOfficially trademarked in 1903, Pepsi-Cola has gone through many changesover the years. Though each individualchange wasnt drastic, the evolution
has led to a logo with no trace of theoriginal. This shouldnt come as a sur-
prise considering the first few iterationslooked surprisingly like the logo of
their main competitor, Coca-Cola. Thelatest of these changes took approxi-mately 5 months of research and cost inthe neighborhood of $100 million(including costs of changing old logosand marketing literature).

But whenit comes to the TVCs of Mentos, they could only be definedas intellect stimulants - bizarre in concept and humorous inessence. Still the commercial succeeds in carrying a pinchof wacky fun in it along with its elixir of intelligent odd-ness.When discussing TVCs, ITC Ltd head of marketing HemantMalik said, "A commercial is an immediate success when itgoes un-ignored."Same goes for Mentos' TVC. It is faithful to its tag-lineDimag ki batti jala de! You can either love it or hate it. That's your call. But whenit comes to ignoring it the answer is a big fat NO.

To start with, the idea of forming a veryown Marketing club of our college, Teammarkonomics was been made keeping inmind the vision of infusing the knowledge
of marketing as a domain into the knowl-edge bank of our students. Since its incep-tion we have been working to make every event asuccess story in itself and we have never missed anychance where we can associate ourselves with the studentsand Impart the sheer knowledge and information that is notonly our mission but also for the benefit of our students.As any team has to be formed and members have to be se-lected, a contest among the nominees was taken up whereinthe participants had to qualify a marketing puzzle and an admaking completion. The judges concluded 4 of us as the coremembers and 5 as active members to the club.After forming the team, came the naming where the club wasgiven the name MARKONOMICS and the same was inau-
gurated our our respected Dean maam Mrs. Chabbi Chavan.
On the same day, we held our very first activity named Sitare
Ishtehar Dewhich was a contest based on brand awarenessand brand knowledge. Thereafter we have taken up anotherevent named Industry Gyanshala keeping in mind the in-
dustry knowledge that our students require as a part of theirindustry interest and awareness. Till now we have covered 6industries in total and more are upcoming in the line.
