� The farmers are more interested in the right chemical composition in the fertilizer.
� There exists a parity among the various brands of fertilizers because of the standardized chemical compositions.
� Hence brand differentiation through product offering can be safely ruled out.
PricePrice� The prices for fertilizer products are fixed by the
Government of India.� Price list of CFL products (per bag):
• 28-28-0 for Rs. 471/-• 20-20-0 for Rs. 378/-• 14-35-14 for Rs. 450/-• 10-26-26 for Rs. 434/-
� There exists a marginal price difference between the competing brands, ranging from Rs. 5/- to Rs. 30/- which cannot be altered by CFL to tip the balance.
� Eventually brand differentiation through price offering can also be striked out.
PlacePlace� Availability is the key word in rural marketing.� CFL had 1600 dealers in place.� Brand pull has to be substantiated with the availability
of stocks at the dealers place to result in sales.� At the nearest dealer a farmer tends to look for a
particular brand, and not finding one he buys the next available brand based on the chemical composition.
� Hence a wide spread distribution network is imperative for a fertilizer brand to succeed.
� CFL can harness the place factor to drive competitive advantage.

The fallout…The fallout…
� The execution of the strategy at the ground level needs attention.
� At the dealers place where the purchase decisions are taken, the brand/products lack visibility.
� The field staff lacked proper presentation skills.� There is no consistency in the brand communication.� The communication fails to excite the audience.� Age old corporate films were shown to the audience.� New media/promotions schemes are not explored.� Lastly, the present communication does not comply
to the changing expectations of the audiences.
