• As we are speaking about regionalisation of print: Eenadu has entered 25th year of introduction of Regional News Paper ( District Tabloid)
• Eenadu thought about regionalisation much before ‘India’ started taking ‘Bharat’ seriously
![Page 5: Regionalization Of Print...• Eenadu Distribution team can reach any household within Andhra Pradesh every 60 days • 80% of agencies located in Tier II and Rural areas • Right](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042104/5e82c10deb1579524f623af7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Long before the online world discovered the benefits of
Personalization
Long before consumers began to demand products and services that were localized
Eenadu wove Customization into the very fabric of its offering
the day - 26th January 1989
the product INNOVATION – 28 tabloids (District, Vizag/Vijayawada – Urban
Rural and in three neighbouring states
![Page 6: Regionalization Of Print...• Eenadu Distribution team can reach any household within Andhra Pradesh every 60 days • 80% of agencies located in Tier II and Rural areas • Right](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042104/5e82c10deb1579524f623af7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Launch of a strategic and focused product as part of the mother brand
• But with an IDENTITY of its own
• That addressed MY neighbourhood, MY city/town/village, MY needs, MY wants
• Eenadu launched 28 district tabloids
• Each district tabloid had its own infrastructure to support and sustain the product in terms of production, distribution and revenue generation
26th January 1989 witnessed…

Resultant effect of the tabloids…
• This revolutionary innovation led to Market Expanding in terms of
• Circulation creating newer readers as well as better efficiencies in distribution
• Readership due to better connect with the Reader and vice-versa
• Efficiencies in our Pricing model leading to enhanced Advertising revenue
• Brand equity creating an overall ownership of the product • Advertisers delight led to the creation of concept selling leading to many firsts in the
country

Tailor made for small & medium advertisers
From Space Selling Concept Selling
Creating opportunity for unconventional advertisers by providing them opportunities through
• Category ads
• Personal ads like bon voyage, retirement, birthday greetings
• Event specific ads
• Political advts
• Local retail
Micro-targeting of advertising revenue has helped Eenadu weather the economic cycles
![Page 9: Regionalization Of Print...• Eenadu Distribution team can reach any household within Andhra Pradesh every 60 days • 80% of agencies located in Tier II and Rural areas • Right](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042104/5e82c10deb1579524f623af7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• If ‘District Tabloids’ was an INNOVATION then ‘Constituency pages’ was a REVOLUTION’
• Offering localized content as well as advertising solutions was the Buzz word
• So on 9th March 2009, we went on to launch Constituency Pages
• Each of the 294 Assembly constituencies had 2-4 dedicated pages
• This funnel approach was to address the demand to supply
• This gave the overgrowing population within the district / town / city better access to localized content, voice their opinion as well as further micro-target the advertisers
Geo Targeting – The Eenadu way…

Constituency Pages – The Voice of the Villages…
• The Constituency pages of Eenadu covers news from around 60 – 70 villages everyday. The main goal in launching our Constituency pages is to penetrate to the nook and corners of the villages.
• The Constituency page covers mandals & villages of the districts.
• Apart from focusing on the main cities of the district, which our Tabloid does, the Constituency pages covers the Voice of the Villages, it is this minuteness which helps us to reach the grassroots.
• We have allocated separate space for Public Opinion – to voice the public’s view.

One Size does not FIT all… Reader segmentation
• Within a family, the reading and content requirements are different amongst each member
• Within the state too, the Urban readers reading habits are different from their rural bretheren
• The issues, the needs and the wants are varied even within a District or Town or a City
• We understood this and quickly decided to address this Need gap
![Page 12: Regionalization Of Print...• Eenadu Distribution team can reach any household within Andhra Pradesh every 60 days • 80% of agencies located in Tier II and Rural areas • Right](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042104/5e82c10deb1579524f623af7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Bridging the Need – GAP - Customisation
• We saw the opportunity to expand our foot print within the family as well as across the state
• The woman of the house didn’t have a media product of her own & so were the farmers
• And the forte of English media like Business was not available to readers beyond the city of Hyderabad
• So Eenadu bridged this GAP though regionalized content in a palatable form through dedicated pages and publications on a daily basis
![Page 13: Regionalization Of Print...• Eenadu Distribution team can reach any household within Andhra Pradesh every 60 days • 80% of agencies located in Tier II and Rural areas • Right](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042104/5e82c10deb1579524f623af7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What we did to address this…
• 2 pages of exclusive Business news launched on 31st January 1988
• 1988 saw the launch of ‘Aadhivaram’ a truly family magazine & Annadatta a monthly magazine for the farmer
• ‘Vasundhara’ - a daily page celebrating womanhood as well as addressing her needs and aspirations was launched on 24th September 1992
• Dedicated pages addressing (Education, Healthcare, Youth etc.,)
