Onida, Videocon; etc.

there is downtrend in the consumer durables market.

menus on its TV.

like fabmall.com, rediff.com, indiatimes.com, and

Commendation for Corporate Social Responsibility. This
award was given by the Institute of Directors and the
World Council for Corporate Governance. Samsung runs
the Digital Hope programme, supporting organizations
that promote the use of technology to improve the lives of
youth, empower them and help bridge the ‘digital divide’.
• Organizations supported by this programme include

SAMSUNGS PRODUCT LINE
o Consumer Electronic Products like :
• Color Television (CTV’s)
• Refrigerators (Frost Free)
• Air Conditioners
• GSM Handsets
• Front Loading Washing Machines
• LCD TV, Plasma TV
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SAMSUNG
(Where are we now??)
• In 2004 and 2005 sales turnover was 4,900 crores and

6,300 crores respectively
• Trying to Close on to the Market Leader LG
• Making a mark in the High end category Segment
• LCD TV, Plasma TV, Frost free Refrigerators and
Split AC’s.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SAMSUNG
(Where are we now??)
• Samsung had a sting of design successes in 2000s.

For example, the Syncmaster series of LCD
monitors was lauded for its simple design and
went on to win several awards.
• In 2000s, LCD TVs and Plasma TVs were gaining
popularity therefore Samsung’s design team
started work on developing a slim projection TV
based on digital light processing (DLP)
technology. The result was the highly acclaimed
HLP series of DLP TVs.
CORE COMPETENCIES
o L.G
• Product leadership, Market leadership, People
leadership”
o SONY
• Known for creating “products that stimulate
the senses and refresh the spirit”
Marketing Communication Mix
o Advertising
• Through TV we have seen different advertisements of SONY
products such as Bravia televisions or Sony Wega TV. Sony
also advertise its products by those favorable television
programs, like sports, series and also it has its own channel
called Sony TV channel.
o CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT
• LG had Abhishek Bachhan, Samsung Has Aamir Khan,
Videocon had Amithabh Bachhan and now Sharukh Khan, and
All these players have used celebrity to a good effect to
endorse their brands. On the other hand Onida is stuck with its
old “Devil” which isn’t helping.
o Association with events:
• LG was the first brand to enter cricket in a big way, by
sponsoring the 1999 World Cup, and followed it up in 2003 as
well.
• Samsung has very successfully leveraged its association with
Cricket and Cinema in the form of ‘Team Samsung’ and
‘Samsung IIFA Award’
• Samsung has also helped bring to India for the first time, the
Olympic torch relay.
• In 2004, Samsung also brought to India what was possibly the
biggest cricketing spectacle of this decade, the historic India
vs. Pakistan cricket series - ‘The Samsung Cup’.
o Sales Promotion
• Free samples, discount, rebates, coupons, contents and
sweepstakes, premiums, scratch cards, exchange offers, early
bird prizes, etc. Sony has promoted its products through
different sales promotional strategies.
• For example after the release of the Sony BRAVIA television
sets, Sony promoted them by early bird prizes by saying that
all BRAVIA full HD LCD TVs purchased during July 2008
and registered within two weeks of purchase qualify for a
Bonus Playstation 3 as long as the customer claims is one of
the first 35,000 received and validated by Sony.
o Distribution
• Sony being the company which positions itself
as a seller of durable and high-end products, it
is practicing selective distribution of its
products from the selective dealers i.e. SONY
World.
COMPETITOR ANALYSIS
o LG ELECTRONICS
• LG Electronics rightly understood the consumer
motivations to create magnetic products, price them
strategically, position them sharply and keep making
the magnetism more potent.
o SAMSUNG
• Initially the strategy of Samsung in India was to
create premium image by emphasizing global brand.
After facing stiff competition from another Korean
major- LG, Samsung also started playing price game.
COMPETITOR ANALYSIS
o ONIDA (MIRC ELECTRONICS)

• Its popular devil ad although had engendered a strong
emotional pull towards the brand, technologically it
represented no advancement. The company plugged
the gap by touting its digital technology. Like
Videocon, it has also been able to hold its market
share.
COMPETITOR ANALYSIS
o VIDEOCON
• Videocon has always been a price player and has an
image of a low price brand. This entails providing
more features at a given price vis-à-vis competitors. It
has taken over multinational brands to cater to
unserved segments, like Sansui- to flank the flagship
brand Videocon in the low to mid priced segment,
essentially to fight against brands like BPL, Philips,
Onida and taken over Akai.
