INITIAL STRATEGIES OF MAGGIE
Maggi has faced lot of hurdles in its journey in India. The basic problem the brand faced is the Indian Psyche. Initially Nestle tried to position the Noodles in the platform of convenience targeting the working women. However, the sales of Maggi was not picking up despite of heavy Media Advertising. To overcome this NIL conducted a research. They promoted the product further by distributing free samples. Giving gifts on return of empty packets, etc. Effective Tagline Communication.

HURDLES FACED Sales saw a decline in 1990’s: Formulation changed from Fried base to Air dried base Competition increased in noodle segment: Top Ramen - Indo Nissin (Japanese co.) New product launched in market but failed: Dal Atta Noodles Sambhar flavour Maggi launched some new products under their brand, but these products were not successful.: Ketchups, Soups, Taste makers,etc. 22

COMMUNICATION MEDIA

TARGET SEGMENT Maggi was a sponsor for Hum Log, a popular television show on Doordarshan, India’s sole channel in 1984. Maggi is now targeting its products at the entire family and not only kids. Maggi has recently launched “MAIN AUR MERI MAGGI” campaign in commensuration of 25 years of Maggi in India. Maggi did not focus heavily on print media during its launch since its initial target audience was mothers and kids. Some advertisements in the print media were used to highlight the convenience factor of Maggi.
