How Does Advertising Work IIFCB Grid • Low involvement • Consumer is not involved; tends to see the utilitarian values of the category; routine/quick decision making • E.g.: detergents, fuel, flour, mobile service (?) High involvement Consumer is involved with the product category; identifies with it and often takes time to decide which brand to use E.g.: TV, car, perfume, clothes, insurance (?)
How Does Advertising Work IIFCB Grid Think Vs feel • Think • Consumer decides using his head : • ‘Rationality’ drives the choice of product/brand • FeelConsumer decides using his heart : • ‘ Emotionality’ drives the choice of product/brand

Santoor : Phase I Results • Brand attracted decent volumes : 2,500 tonnes • Got a core group of ‘Value oriented’ consumers to try and remain with the brand • But growth stopped in Year 2 • No new users coming into brand !
Santoor : The Challenge • Need to retain the traditional users • Need to rapidly attract new users • Need to provide image values that will build the brand for future growth
Santoor : The Brand Interrogation • Sandal and turmeric traditional beauty aids in India • What are their roles in skin care? • Searched literature for finding how sandal and turmeric are useful for beauty care • The Secret: Skin Care • Both are great skin care aids • In fact help reduce wrinkles and impart a youthful glow
Santoor : The Ingredient Vs The Benefit • Santoor selling ingredients to a set of believers • But not many knew of the benefits the brand and its ingredients offered • Why not move away from ‘ingredient’ based advertising to ‘benefit’ based advertising? • What if the core users moved away thinking the brand has changed?
Santoor : Finding the Balance • New advertising needed to present the brand in a new light to attract new users • But old users should not get alienated either! • The answer : Benefit based advertising rooted in the ingredients • “Santoor cares for your skin because it contains the goodness of sandal and turmeric”
