entered into an agreement with Nagarjuna to be a business association of the company. The agencies act as a local brand ambassador for Nagarjuna Ayurvedic group.

The agencies will be displaying the name board of the company as per the company’s specification. The agents will be participating with the company marketing team for all market development. They will be abiding by the company trade policies, credit policies, marketing strategies and other relevant policies.

Marketing is the management function, which organizes and directs all those business activities assessing and converting customer’s purchasing powder in to effective demand for a specific product or service. And in moving, the product or service to the first consumer or user so as to achieve the profit target or other objectives set by a company.

The term supply chain may be too limited; it takes a make-and-sell view of the business. It suggests that raw materials, productive inputs and factory capacity should serve as the starting point for market planning. A better term would be demand chain, because it suggests sense-and-responds view of the market. Under this view, planning starts with the needs of target customers, to which the company responds by organizing resources with the goal of building profitable customer relationships.

A company’s channel decisions directly affect every other- marketing decision. The company’s pricing depends on whether it works with national discount chains, uses high-quality specialty stores or sells directly to consumers via the web. The firm’s sales force and communications decisions depend on how much persuasion, training, motivation and support its channel partners need.

6.2 How Channel Members Add Values

The use of intermediaries results from their greater efficiency in making goods available to larger markets. Through their contacts, experience, specialization and scale of operation, intermediaries usually offer the firm more than it can on its own. 6.3 Policies of Distribution intensity

At each level of distribution, decisions are made on the desired number of outlets. It is advisable to decide first upon the policy to be followed at the distribution level nearest to the final buyers, because generally the same decisions must be applied at other distribution levels.

i. Mass distribution

The company following a policy of mass distribution aims for maximum sales exposure by securing distribution through all those outlets from which final buyers might expect to purchase the product. This policy is used in distribution many customers convenience items.

ii. Selective distribution

Selective distribution means selecting only those outlets that can be best the manufacture’s interests. Criteria are set up to provide guidance in the selection of accounts these criteria relate to the sizes of orders, volume of purchases, profitability, type of operation and geographical location.

iii. Exclusive agency distribution

It is an extreme form of selective distribution that means severely limiting the number of intermediaries. The manufacturer makes an agreement, either written or oral, with a middleman in each market area stipulating that distribution of the manufacture’s product or products with in that area is to be confirmed solely to that middleman. It is used when the producer wants to maintain control over the service level and service outputs offered by the resellers.

Using exclusive agency distributors does, however, have a number of attractive features. It is easy to develop distributor’s enthusiasm for the product and stimulate the distributors to sell it aggressively. Relation between sales personnel and the middleman are likely to be of long duration and after the agreements have been reached, sales people can focus more on “servicing” and less on “selling”.

6.4 Marketing channel functions A marketing channel is essentially method of organizing the operation to more goods from producers to consumers.

The purpose is to overcome various gaps that separate the goods and services from those who would use them. The functions performed by the middleman or marketing channels are as under.

1. Research: - gathering the information necessary for planning and facilitating exchanges.

2. Promotion: - development and dissemination of personnel communications about the product offer.

3. Contract: - searching out and communicating which are the prospective buyers.

4. Matching: - shaping and fitting of the offer to the buyers requirements and includes such activities as standardization, grading, assembling and packing.

5. Negotiation: - an attempt to reach final agreement on price and other terms of the offer so that transfer of ownership could be affected.

6. Physical distribution:- transporting and storage of the goods.

7. Franchising:- the accusation and dispersal of funds to cover the costs of the channel

8. Risk taking: - the assumption of risk in connection with the channel work.

6.5. Marketing middleman

The middle man available and their willingness to represent a particular manufacture r and the relative costs using them often dictate marketing channels. A manufacturer may be constrained in his choice of channel by the availability of a particular middleman. Thus, if a middlement of that type wanted by marketers are not available or those wanted do not take on the product line, the manufacturer may have to take second choice. The costs of using different middleman relative to its own sales and profit goals influence the manufacturer are choice of middlement.

6.6. Types of middleman Middleman is the person who provides a link between the manufacturer and the customer, they facilitate the purchase and sales of goods and services and also performing the marketing function as stated above. They change for their service and to that extent; they are responsible for the increase in the costs of product to the ultimate consumers or user. Middleman may be broadly classified into two categories, namely (1) mercantile agents or agent middleman and (ii) merchant middleman. 6.7.

Mercantile agents are following types:- i. Commission agent ii. Factor iii. Auctioneer iv. Broker

Cost Reduction Technique

Continuous cost reduction works are performing in the organization. Firms look each and every area to reduce the cost. For example they make bulk purchase of raw material when the materials having the lower price. The company giving only a part of price for the boards and hoardings for the advertisement of the firms, balance amount is bared by the agencies.

The firm uses agencies for retailing their products. It is also cost reduction method. Because they need not worry about retail out lets. To reduce the cost for labours they are using the hired labourers at the time of high demand or need large production or they are using three shifts instead of two shift. In these ways they reduce the cost of recruiting and selecting the new employees.

Waste Disposal

Like all other medicine manufacturing industry it has also producing some waste, but that are only biological waste. In the production of the Ayurvedic medicines the material are only natural, mostly roots, leaves, fruits, and skin of plant, flowers, spices, sugar, milk etc. so the waste are not harmful to the nature. The waste can be used as natural fertilizers. And some of the wastes are in the form of water, and the firm has a treatment plant of disposing the waste. The medicines manufacturing firm should keep the surrounding clean then only they can make the products hygienically. So the waste disposal functions efficiently and effectively.

During this campaign the company has to depute experienced doctors to meet the customers and explain the important of medical and ingredients. 2. The company may also share promotional risks with agencies i.e. Agencies co-operative advertising programs in which expenses are shared with agencies. Even if the share of expenses by the agency is less as compared to the company, the company may work together with the agency and make the promotion program a successful one. 3. The company may also sometimes set sales volume quotas for individual agencies and if the agencies meet or exceed their sales quotas within the sales campaign period, they pan receive price, award often in the form of trips for agencies and their spouses, which will often motivate the agencies to strive very hard to achieve the sale volume quotas. 4.

...Letters While your resume is a summary of your credentials, your cover letter should essentially be a sales pitch. Your aim is to demonstrate why your skills and your background make a perfect match for the position you're applying for. The cover letter is not the place to summarize your background--you have already done this in your resume. Remember, employers typically receive hundreds of resumes for each job opening. You must stand out from other job seekers in a positive way. The best way to distinguish yourself is to highlight one or two of your accomplishments or abilities that show you are an above-average candidate for this position. Stressing only one or two unique attributes will increase your chances of being remembered by the recruiter and getting to the interview stage, where you can elaborate on the rest of your accomplishments. You can also gain an extra edge by showing that you have some specific knowledge about the company and industry. This shows that your are genuinely interested in the job you are applying for--and that you are not blindly sending out hundreds of resumes. More importantly, the employer will view your interest as an indication that you are likely to stay with the company for a substantial period of time if you are hired. 10 Key Details to Remember When to send a cover letter: always mail a cover letter with your resume.

It can be used to make multiple applications to employers in a specific career area. For this reason, many large graduate recruiters will not accept CVs and instead use their own application form. FACT: Often selectors read CVs outside working hours. They may have a pile of 50 CVs from which to select five interviewees. It's evening and they would rather be in the pub with friends. If your CV is hard work to read: unclear, badly laid out and containing irrelevant information, they will just just move on to the next CV. Treat the selector like a child eating a meal. Chop your CV up into easily digestible morsels (bullets, short paragraphs and note form) and give it a clear logical layout, with just the relevant information to make it easy for the selector to read. If you do this, you will have a much greater chance of interview. An application form is designed to bring out the essential information and personal qualities that the employer requires and does not allow you to gloss over your...

The Best Cover Letter I Ever Received

...2009 In my last post I talked about how to make your résumé more likely to catch the attention of a hiring manager. As a follow up, I'd like to discuss cover letters.

The form letter: This says, essentially, "Dear Sir or Madam: I saw your ad in the paper and thought you might like me." And it's clearly a form letter where maybe they got my name and company right. If they're lucky, I will still take the time to read their résumé after being insulted with a form letter. The "I'm crazy": This one's rare, and it expands on the résumé of experience with some personal insights. Examples range from the merely batty ("I find batik as an art form has taught me to become both a better person and project manager.") to the truly terrifying ("I cast a pentagram hex and the central line pointed towards your job listing. I know you will find this as comforting as I do.") There are really only a few times to use a cover letter: 1. When you know the name of the person hiring 2. When you know something about the job requirement 3. When you've been personally referred (which might include 1 and 2) Under those conditions, you can help your cause by doing some of the résumé analysis for your potential new boss. To illustrate...

Summary of Writing

...Employment: Resumes and Letters Introduction Communication skills are the greatest assets in finding that job. Many important skills are needed to get a good job: investigating a targeted company, preparing a resume and letter of application, and writing a thank-you letter to follow up an interview. Researching Possible Employers Regardless of whether the job search is through the college, faculty or on our own, it is imperative to write many documents to secure the job, including a letter of application, a resume, and a thank-you letter after the interview. For all these documents, information of the targeted employer is essential so that the documents can be tailor made to the potential employer's needs. After we decide to apply for a job at a particular company or organization, we need to find as much information as possible about both the organization as a whole and the particular job applying to. While applying for a specific job opening there will be general information about the position in the job announcement. If we read the announcement carefully we can learn as much as possible about the position's requirements and the qualifications the employer is looking for. This information will guide us in preparing the resume and application letter. We can research the organization’ s website for general information about the organization and also search the Internet for articles and news items in the financial media. Preparing a Resume Preparing a resume is the most...
