INTRODUCTION
Real estate is a business, not a profession. Real estate is sometimes inaccurately spoken of as a profession, but it is essentially a business. A profession applies science, art or learning to the use of others, the profit to the professor or person applying it being incidental; whereas a business is engaged in primarily for profit, and the profit is to the one engaging in the business. But whether real estate is a business or a profession has no connection at all with the body of ethics governing it. Every business can be conducted upon a plane ethically as high as the ideals of any profession, and the men who have been conspicuously successful in the real estate business have attained success because they have applied to their business the highest ideals of commercial fair dealing. This does not mean that there is any ethical requirement for the seller or the purchaser to give away anything which belongs to him, or for either one to disclose to the other his necessity for selling or his requirements for buying; but the bargain having been made, it is absolutely necessary that it be lived up to by both parties, according to its intent; and, if there be any doubt of the intent of the bargain as it is expressed in writing, that the spirit of the transaction be carried out rather than that the catch words of a written instrument should govern. Cases are frequent of men who to their own detriment perform the thing which they have promised to do although not legally obligated, and the bigger and more successful the man who makes the promise the more surely will it be carried out. Important obligations are often incurred upon the mere promise of a well-known man to sell an important piece of property at a definite price, although no legal and 6|Page

enforceable obligation exist; and the promise is always redeemed if it is made by a man who knows the business, and it is redeemed not merely from altruistic motives, but also for purely business reasons. Divisions of the business.—the principal divisions of the real estate business are investment, operation and agency. These differ from one another according to the aims of the persons engaging in them and the methods by which those persons expect to make their gains. To conduct either of the first two divisions of the business, investment or operation, actual money capital is required. The most important capital in the agency business is the good will of its customers, and that can be marketed, increased and made very valuable for investment. Investment is the employment of capital in the acquisition of real estate or interests therein for permanent ownership or actual use of the person acquiring it. Operation is the employment of capital in the acquisition or improvement of real estate or interests therein for commercial operations. Agency is dealing in or with real estate on behalf of others. Investment in real estate is generally made for either of two purposes : (a) To derive an income, (b) To hold for resale in expectancy of an increase in value. Investment for income may be for one of two purposes, (1) The derivation of rental—that is, the direct return for the use of real property for definite periods, or

7|Page

(2) The obtaining of income through others upon money lent on the security of real property.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) estimates that India's gross domestic product (GDP) will grow significantly by 2010-2011. From July 1, for highvalue real estate transactions, Form 37(I) Income Tax clearances are not required. Budget 2010 had provided for the repeal of this provision allowing the government the pre-emptive right to purchase immovable property. This is a progressive step that significantly reduces the three-month waiting period before large-value transactions could be registered. A Rs 500 billion (US$10.2 billion) Urban Reforms Incentive Fund (URIF) has been proposed to motivate agencies at every level to undertake infrastructure reforms. Extra funds have been announced to those States pushing reforms, especially in the context of the Urban Land Ceiling Act. The soft interest rates regime has lowered cost of funds to housing finance institutions, translating into a drop in interest rates. This has triggered off a large take-up of finance by end users.

CURRENT SCENARIO Office markets showed signs of revival towards the end of Q1 2010. Outsourcing drove these to India of 'back office operations' of financial institutions and call centers. The market is now looking more buoyant, with most corporates perceiving the travel advisories as an over-reaction. In Delhi, rental and capital values continue to be soft and the principle business districts are seeing movement of small corporates from secondary markets to the CBD, 8|Page

focused on A or B+ grade buildings. The suburban markets of Gurgaon and Noida are driven by larger space requirements of IT-enabled service (ITES) providers, primarily call centers. Major corporate offices are also relocating from the CBD to Gurgaon in Haryana, primarily driven by quality and size of space offered. Landlords are offering single flexible and divisible floor plates of up to 100,000 sq ft. There is a clear link between shifting corporate destinations and the boost this provides to housing. This is evident in Gurgaon in Delhi where residential take-up has been in tandem with corporate influx. The middle to upper middle class residential market is active across the country. This market is driven by: Tax incentives offered by the government on housing loans. Lack of other attractive investment options such as the stock market or personal savings schemes. Improvement of transport linkages. Good quality products offered at reasonable cost by developers to boost lack-luster markets The last quarter saw fresh leasing activity in Gurgaon with space commitments of approx. 1,150,000 sq. ft. However, values are expected to continue to be under pressure as new supply of over 165,000 sq. ft. is added. In the next 8-12 months, demand for IT enabled services will be in excess of 1.2-1.4 million sq. ft. Approximately 65% of this demand is likely to be split over 6 cities: Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai.

9|Page

In the last 2 to 3 years corporate had observed a shift in the Delhi area most of them are now function from Gurgaon and Manesar area which was earlier not as a favorable investment place this shift has occurred due to increase in the price level at CBD area of Delhi.

LATEST PRICES
CURRENT SCENARIO Corporate take-up is driving Delhi's office market as well as call centers and other ITenabled users. Tenants are generally seeking fully fitted office space. In the CBD, such space is often vacated by corporates who have relocated to the suburbs. Sometimes landlords fit out space to attract good tenants. Takers of smaller office space such as Infar, Tellabs and Frederic R Harris in the CBD have opted for fully fitted facilities, vacated by previous tenants. In Gurgaon and Faridabad too, there has been take-up of fully fitted accommodation. Most landlords offer air conditioning and power back up, supported by professional real estate property management. In the CBD, landlords of properties such as Ashoka Estate and Hindustan Times House have improved these buildings, which have enabled them to upgrade tenant profile. The industrial areas of Udyog Vihar, Okhla and Mohan Co-operative and Faridabad too are seeing take-up by IT-enabled services. In the suburbs, developers have land and schemes, which are being marketed to corporates with large build-to-suit 10 | P a g e

requirements. Noida and Gurgaon offer buildings with such larger floor plates which cater to large space users. Both Faridabad and Gurgaon have emerged as prime residential locations, which produce an English-speaking workforce capable of servicing call centers, and IT enabled services companies. There are approx 40 call centers operational in Gurgaon and Faridabad. Call centers typically employ upwards of 100 people at a per-personper-sq ft ratio of 70. Call center space take-up is therefore typically in excess of

7,000 sq ft up to approx 200,000 sq ft. Large players such as GE Capital, EXL Services, Spectramind and Daksh have head counts upwards of 2,500 operating out of multiple locations.

PROSPECT OF NCR IN REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY
The state of Haryana has emerged pioneer in the real estate growth in the country. It is well known fact that the state is highest FDI getter in the sector and all the major players of the industries have their base in the state therefore Haryana has edge over engineering and technologies on other part Real Estate Development has emerged as a principal growth engine for economic development in this country. With the economy is on an upswing, the emphasis today is on bridging the massive backlog in infrastructure and housing sectors. This coupled with increased paying capacity, rapid urbanization and policies like FDI in urban development sector has made Real Estate Development a lucrative investment option. The Real Estate Development sector has the capacity to pay for itself without straining the limited resources of the State Govt. However, to ensure the desired development, it is necessary to have a clear view of the proposed development and a regulatory framework with legal backing in place. On this basis, Haryana has been able to invite private sector to invest in the State and we are proud to say that as of now the model followed by State Govt. in this regard is being followed by other States also. The geographical location of the Haryana is such that it encompasses Delhi-the National Capital on three sides. Its other towns in rest of the State are also well connected. Therefore, the entire State offers good investment opportunities for Real Estate Development. The results are for everyone to see at Gurgaon, Faridabad and Panchkula. Sonepat is also making progress in this direction. Besides this, there are other factors responsible for large scale private sector investment in the State. 13 | P a g e

The Development Plans for all important towns in Haryana have been prepared for the prospective year 2021 to divide the entire urban land into various land use zones like residential, commercial, industrial etc. On the basis of this development plan, the State Govt. agencies as well as private sector investors undertake development in the State. Similarly, legal framework in the form of Haryana Urban Development and Regulations of Urban Areas Act, 1975 and Rules, 1976 are applicable in the State. This Act gives the regulatory framework for private investment in the State. The framework is further supplemented by executive instructions wherever necessary. A responsive techno-administrative set up which responds to the national and international trends in urban development is the biggest asset of the State. All investment proposals are viewed as an opportunity by the State Govt. and are treated positively keeping in view the interest of the State as well as of the entrepreneurs. However, in order to avail such opportunities, the Government of Haryana is creating conditions that are conducive to more investment. The state has a number of development plans in the pipeline at present. One such opportunity is the Development of the Global Corridor along Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Western Expressway. In this corridor, top class infrastructure facilities that will be at par with international standards are being created. These are meant to meet not only the needs and dreams of the investors but also those who will be living there. Further, there will be a number of specialized economic activities in this corridor, making it growth centric. Each lead economic activity is envisaged to be the focus of a self sustaining specialized and independent cluster city. A number of such cluster cities integrated under one umbrella will provide the overall spatial form of the global urban corridor. In between these nodes, recreational, forest and green area will be developed. 14 | P a g e

The government also has an ambitious plan of developing Rajiv Gandhi Education City at Kundli, Sonipat. The government is in the process of acquiring about 1500 Acres land abutting the National Highway-1 and KMP Western Express. This knowledge city will have quality infrastructure and support services so as to invite top class educational institutes of the world to setup campus there. This unique knowledge city will have a cutting edge over others and frontier technologies devoted to research in the emerging areas of learning. Needless to say that the Government of Haryana will like to have not only the best of infrastructure here but also excellent living conditions for the inhabitants of the campuses. In order to improve connectivity between the National Capital and adjoining areas, it is proposed to extend Metro to Gurgaon for which the State Government has given its consent. National Highway No.8 from Delhi to Gurgaon is already being converted into eight lanes expressway. In addition, we propose to introduce Rapid-Mass Transport system between Delhi-Faridabad, Delhi-Panipat, Delhi-Rohtak as well. This will open up new avenues for investment in real estate development. The government is also exploring the feasibility of setting up an International Airport at Asaudha in Rohtak. If this project comes through, it will, apart from decongesting the traffic at the Indira Gandhi International Airport of Delhi, give a big boost to the development and growth of the State. Not only is the urban area the state going to invest heavily on the hinterland. Hinter land has also to be opened up for development. In order to achieve this objective, state funded proposal to upgrade the State highways connecting various towns like Jhajjar, Rohtak, Jind, Kaithal, Ambala and Yamuna Nagar. This initiative will provide

15 | P a g e

tremendous boost to development of these areas & provide ample opportunities to realestate investors. In addition, three new townships near Sampla, Badli-Jahangirpur and GanaurSamalkha are to be developed on the pattern of modern townships. They will not only help in decongesting the national capital but in the process, also become growth engines for development of the surrounding areas. It also needs to be remembered that we intend to provide the most modern transport system to all these are In the month of June this year the Government of Haryana announced its new Industrial Policy. Briefly, the objective of the policy is to generate employment, create investment and to facilitate dispersal of economic activity all over the State. To achieve the objectives of this policy, a comprehensive plan for the development of infrastructure all over the State has been drawn. Special Economic Zones are being setup to give boost to exports. Three new Industrial Model Townships (IMT), apart from the one at Manesar, are to be developed during the next five years. One of them is to be located at Faridabad. The Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure

Development Corporation (HSIDC) have already envisaged one such zone over an area of 3000 acres at Garhi Harsaru, New Gurgaon. The State Government shall also be promoting public and private sector initiative for establishing SEZs on KMP Western Expressway artery, NH-10, NH-8 and NH-2. I hardly need to point out that these offer excellent opportunity for the real estate developers to make their contribution visible. The development of Mega Petro Chemical Hub would not have escaped your notice. The Indian Oil Corporation Limited has implemented two mega projects at Panipat, utilizing captive feeds stock from its refineries. In view of the availability of requisite

16 | P a g e

raw material for polymer and other plastic related industry, Industrial Park in and around Panipat for the development of downstream industries is being developed. The State Government, in collaboration with the Central Government, is also setting up a Central Institute of Plastic and Engineering Technology. In addition, the State is in an advance stage of creating specialized industrial estates at strategic locations. Thus there will be a Food Park at Kundli (Sonipat), Gems and Jewelery Park at Udyog Vihar, two Apparel Parks at the SEZ at Gurgaon and Barhi in Sonipat and Foot Wear and Leather Garments Parks at Karnal and Bahadurgarh. Haryana has the unique distinction of surrounding the National Capital from three sides and that forty per cent of the National Capital Region falls within Haryana. This is both a challenge as well as an opportunity. Gurgaon has already emerged as an outstanding example of private participation in real-estate and urban development. Today the life style offered by Gurgaon draws to it not only companies like Maruti Udyog, Hero Honda, Modi Alcatel, Whirlpool India, Bharti Telecom, Perfetti India, DCM Benetton, TDT Copper, Honda Motorcycle and Scooters but also global giants like Coke and Pepsi. Not only the Malls of Gurgaon draw the best of the clients of the capital but also the residential areas developed are a big draw with the new generation. But the pace of urban growth in Gurgaon has put the existing infrastructure under serious stress. Therefore government had already in the process of implementing projects to strengthen the infrastructure within investment of Rs. 750 crores.

HUDA’S ROLE
In all these planned development, the role of Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) is most significant Gurgaon is a naturally planned town. 17 | P a g e HUDA have

realized the potential of Gurgaon – as earlier small township, growing into a metro mega city and visualized it as a commercially and technically savvy city to establish foundation for social commercial and industrial success, HUDA has realized that the success of town lies in the satisfaction of its people and believe in bringing them together. Keeping them in mind, HUDA has developed crèche building, schools,

colleges, dispensary, hospital, community building, police station, fire station, milk booth, bus shelters, telephone exchanges, stadium, club, old age homes, golf course etc. Amongst other most important Infrastructure Facilities, is the ‘ACCESS- ROADS’. Although Gurgaon as being old existing city – basic of infrastructure was available. HUDA made their up-gradation developing to their excellence more feeding today major demands of growth achieved. HUDA aims at making the township of Gurgaon more easily accessible by providing long and wide roads, which are well lit. The

light-post has been fixed at regular intervals. Consideration of a circular road is also under consideration. Rightly, Gurgaon roads are leading towards success. Considering “Water –inevitable source of life” – HUDA truly realizing the importance of water in all aspects of life. Consequently, a 70 km. Water channel from Sonepat to Gurgaon has been constructed which is designed to supply 100 MGD treated water capable of serving up to 16 lacs of people. As for ‘Sewerage - which is the hygiene of Life’ HUDA has also designed a 4 zone Sewerage system to ensure hygiene of community. The waste is carried through

proper channels and disposed in an appropriate engineered manner. It also provides an efficient drainage system to stop the rain water from collecting in the town.

18 | P a g e

It may be well said that in Gurgaon, HUDA makes the ‘Infrastructure Facilities on a Firm Footings’. As already known Haryana as a state and Gurgaon in particular is a front runner in the GREEN REVOLUTION. Despite being a commercial township, it has not forgotten the importance of nature. Accordingly, several provisions have been made to develop parks, open spaces and green belts. A park has been already developed in Sector 29, which is fully decorated with water bodies i.e. foundation etc. For all round development of Gurgaon, HUDA has not ignored the rural population along with urban lot. The water supply, sewerage, storm water, roads, streets, bricks on edge of paving and electrification etc. are planned for the village: Jharsa, Khandsa, Sukhranli, Sarhole, Dundahera, Mulahera, Carterpuri, Gurgaon village, Kadipur, Kanhari, Basai, Islampur & Dhanwapur.

THE MAJOR PLAYERS OF REAL ESTATE MARKETING

REAL ESTATE giant DLF Universal Ltd is going to match Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries Ltd in setting up a 20,000-acre multiproduct Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Gurgaon. According to Haryana State Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) the private developer has offered the corporation a joint venture for the SEZ. But the project will have to be first approved by the Haryana Industrial Promotion Board (HIPB). The proposed project, which has already received an "in-principle approval" of the Central government, is proposed to be set up on both sides of (Gurgaon-Jaipur) National Highway 8, bisecting the proposed Kundli Manesar Palwal (KMP) Expressway. In fact, the proposed DLF SEZ will look on to the 25,000acre Reliance-HSIIDC joint venture SEZ likely to come up in Gurgaon and Jhajjar districts. The proposed DLF SEZ will be developed in four phases. The first phase of 500 acres is expected to be completed by 2009 and the final phase by 2018. The company expects the SEZ to attract an investment of Rs 1, 24,000 crore in terms of fixed as sets like industrial, commercial and residential stock. The annual export potential of the project has been pegged at $10-12 billion once it is fully operational. The SEZ project will be developed through a special purpose vehicle (SPV) promoted by DLF. The company has identified land on both sides of NH 8 for the project, and has offered to keep any part of the land acquired by the state government for public purpose out of the SEZ project. The project report submitted by DLF visualizes 5,000-

20 | P a g e

6,000 acres of the total project area being developed for industrial use in two parts large industrial zone and small industrial zone. The large industrial zone will be developed with plots of 10, 25 and 50 acres, while the small industrial zone will be developed with plots of one, two and five acres. The company also proposes to demarcate a "free trade zone" within the processing area of the SEZ, which would lay emphasis on trading of goods and commodities manufactured within the SEZ, their packaging/ repackaging/ exhibition and the service sector, including BPOs, IT and ITES companies. The private developer will reserve about 2,000 acres for a commercial zone that will include shops and other establishments such as hotels, office complexes and banks. DLF will also develop about 20 million square feet of built-up infrastructure, which would include business centers, Logistics Park, warehouses and hotels. Almost 10,000 acres will be developed solely as residential zone, providing all categories of houses for people working in the SEZ. DLF will also develop about 2,000 to 3,000 acres as institutional area, providing educational, healthcare and research infrastructure. The private developer will provide connectivity to the 20,000acre SEZ by creating an arterial road connecting NH 8 and the proposed Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway during the first phase of development. DLF also proposes to set up a gas-based captive power plant of 2,000 MW capacities at a cost of Rs 6,000 crore. According to tentative company estimates, the land cost for the project will work out to Rs 10,000 crore. The development cost has been estimated at Rs 6,142 crore, the cost for readily built infrastructure at Rs 2,625 and the cost of project management at Rs 938 crore. LOCATION Both sides of Gurgaon-Jaipur highway (NH 8) COST Project cost for DLF to be Rs 26,000 cr Expected domestic and foreign

RETAIL REVOLUTION AND DLF
DLF pioneered the retail revolution in the country and brought about a paradigm shift in the industry by redefining shopping, recreation and leisure experiences with the launch of City Centre in Gurgaon in 2000. Changing lifestyles and accent on quality entertainment and transition in consumer preferences from conventional modes to a wholesome entertainment experience along with growing customer aspirations, enhanced income levels and propensity to spend have further triggered the growth in the retail market in the country, establishing India as the fifth largest retail destination in the world. DLF Retail's foray into the exciting arena of mall development synchronized well with the Group's activities in multiplexes - DT Cinemas and entertainment Industry.

through its focus on innovation, creativity, technological excellence, enhanced customer value and service. In Haryana alone DLF are investing more than 1300 crore worth on different commercial and residential project. Gurgaon is witnessing major price hike due to stiff competition between these industries major. The major chunk of investment is coming through FDI route therefore the main concern is about the price mechanism of company to market their product well. Though the only major player in the market are DLF right now but other player are emerging very fast to catch up the boom.

PRIOR TO MARKETING DETAI L MATTER People gain a sense of their environment from every subliminal detail. Each item helps from the overall perception, but it is the things people touch and feel which have the most impact. They believe that a developer can exploit the environmental potential of the project within a prudent and responsible financial approach. They believe in taking an imaginative approach to the procurement of detail, by commissioning designers who have a particular sympathy for each object. They need to ensure that each component is properly executed, functions well, is aesthetically pleasing, and fits within the whole. Due weight must be given to elements that are taken for granted. Why they take the long term view in marketing? They are Property Builders and believe that the long-term view in development is good for business marketing. Buildings have high visibility and last for decades, even centuries. They affect the lives of people who neither own them nor use them. They therefore take responsibility for what they are building and care for what they leave behind. They believe a development should add something to the community and improve the environment where possible. Buildings of quality constantly increase in value. They also add to the value of the land. Building built with care and quality is easier to maintain, less costly in the long run and less damaging to the environment, benefiting everyone. By being associated with high quality projects, owners and investors protect or enhance their established reputation. Corporations are aware of the value of a name. It can be powerful asset. They think in terms of developments which offer something back to the community, as people take advantage of the extra facilities which the development has made possible. This is not wasteful building. It is 36 | P a g e

economically and environmentally the right thing to do. If the project is based on sound logic, what makes financial sense for the owner can also make good sense for the community?

EXPRIENCING BOOM IN THE REAL ESTATE SECTOR IN HARYANA FAVOURED MARKET
THE real estate market in India is on a high growth curve, on the back of a booming economy, favorable demographics and liberalized FDI regime, although issues such as lack of land reforms and absence of substantial tax incentive for real estate development still need to be addressed. In India's fast-growing economy, real estate has emerged as one of the most appealing investment areas for domestic as well as foreign investors. The real estate sector will continue to derive its growth from the booming IT sector, since an estimated 70 per cent of the new construction is for the IT sector. Besides the demand from the IT sector, the basic need for modern real estate would provide lucrative opportunities for investment. All the major companies are capitalizing on situation arise in comparison to other part of the country price level in Haryana especially in Gurgaon and respected area are burgeoning with faster rate which obviously favored the market and become the reason for more investment. Low interest rates, modern attitudes to home ownership (the average age of a new homeowner is now 32 years compared with 45 years a decade ago), economic prosperity along with a change of attitude amongst the young working population from

37 | P a g e

that of `save and buy' to `buy and repay' and liberalized FDI regime have all contributed to this boom Listing out the challenges for the real estate market in India, the Indian Government's tax policy was not in tandem with the liberalization initiatives being undertaken in the sector. There are no substantial tax incentives for real estate development except in the limited circumstances. Even in these situations, the tax incentive windows have a short life left. The prevailing tenancy laws in India are not in favors of owners of the land," it said. The Urban Land Ceiling Act and Rent Control Acts have distorted property markets in cities, leading to exceptionally high property prices, it said. Moreover, a high percentage of land holdings do not have clear titles. Land is generally non-corporatized and is typically held by individual or families. This restricts organized dealing, and hinders transfer of titles. Legal processes for property disputes are time consuming, adding that despite repeated calls for the rationalization of stamp duties, they continued to be as high as 10-13 per cent in certain states. Once the Government puts into place land reforms and addresses the challenges facing the real estate sector, this sector has the potential to contribute immensely to the country's GDP Although Government has not undertaken capital market level deregulation measures, such as allowing REITs (whether domestic or foreign owned) to operate in India, in

38 | P a g e

2004 it had allowed international and domestic companies to operate real estate funds/pooled vehicles through the private equity fund route. The move combined with the boom in the real estate market opened the doors for a host of realty funds. While most funds were initially floated by financial Institutions or banks such as HDFC, ICICI Bank and Kotak Mahindra Bank, real estate developers like DLF Universal and even retailers such as Pantaloon have now entered the arena for creating more retail facilities..

MARKETING STRATEGIES OF THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY
THE MARKETING CONCEPT The marketing concept is a business philosophy that challenges the three business orientations we just discussed. Its central tenets crystallized in the mid-1950s. The marketing concept holds that the key to achieving its organizational goals consists of the company being more effective than competitors in creating, delivering, and communicating customer value to its chosen target markets. The marketing concept has been expressed in many colorful ways: "Meeting needs profitably." "Find wants and fill them.' "Love the customer, not the product." "Have it your way.' (Burger King) "You're the boss." (United Airlines) 39 | P a g e

"Putting people first." (British Airways) "Partners for profit." (Milliken & Company) Theodore Levitt of Harvard drew a perceptive contrast between the selling and marketing concepts: Selling focuses on the needs of the seller; marketing on the needs of the buyer. Selling is preoccupied with the seller's need to convert his product into cash; marketing with the idea of satisfying the needs of the customer by means of the product and the whole cluster of things associated with creating, delivering and finally consuming it. The marketing concept rests on four pillars: target market, customer needs, integrated marketing, and profitability. They are illustrated in Figure where they are contrasted with a selling orientation. The selling concept takes an inside-out perspective. It

starts with the purchasing of land, focuses on existing products, and calls for heavy selling and promoting to produce profitable sales. The marketing concept takes an outside-in perspective. It starts with a well defined market, focuses on customer needs, coordinates all the activities that will affect customers, and produces profits by satisfying customers. see the Marketing Insight “Scholars and Dollars: Marketing and Selling Comes to College”.

40 | P a g e

Target Market
Companies do best when then choose their target market(s) carefully and prepare tailored marketing programs CUSTOMER NEED A company can define its target market but fail to correctly understand the customers' needs. Consider the following example: A major real estate company invented a new substance that on the preparation of building the marketing start with that very first day they invite application for seeing that building and company bear all the cost of customer to see the potential building. Looking for an application, the marketing department decided to play a lot system on the basis application and a lot one plot only on the basis of draw of lot. The company created a few model marketing and exhibited them at a site show. Understanding customer needs and wants is not always simple. Some customers have needs of which they are not fully conscious. Or they cannot articulate these needs. Or they use words that require some interpretation. Customer can be segmented on the following basis whether they able to explain their need or not 1. 2. 3. 4. Stated needs (the customer wants an average home) Real needs (the customer wants a expensive locality, not its initial price, is low) Unstated needs (the customer expects good service from the developer) Delight needs (the customer would like the dealer to include a gift of a NCR road atlas) 41 | P a g e

5.

Secret needs (the customer wants to be seen by friends as a savvy consumer)

Responding only to the stated need may shortchange the customer. Consider a woman who enters a hardware store and asks for a sealant to seal glass window panes. This customer is stating a solution, not a need. The salesperson might suggest that tape would provide a better solution. The customer may appreciate that the salesperson not her need, not her stated solution. A distinction needs to be drawn between responsive marketing, anticipative marketing, and creative marketing. A responsive marketer finds a stated need and fills it. An anticipative marketer looks ahead into what needs customers may have in the near future. A creative marketer discovers and produces solutions customers did not ask for but to which they enthusiastically respond. Customers are notoriously lacking in foresight. Ten or 15 years ago, how many of us were asking for cellular telephones, fax machines, and copies at home, 24-hour discount brokerage accounts, multi valve automobile engines, compact disc players, cars with on-board navigation systems, hand-held global satellite positioning receivers, automated teller machines, MTB, or the Home Shopping Network? Why is it supremely important to satisfy target customers? Because a company's sales each period come from two groups: new customers and repeat customers. One

estimate is that attracting a new customer can cost five times as much as pleasing an existing one. And it might cost sixteen times as much to bring the new customer to the same level of profitability as the lost customer. important than customer attraction. Customer retention is thus more

Integrated Marketing
42 | P a g e

When all the company's departments work together to serve the customer's interests, the result is integrated marketing. Unfortunately, not all employees are trained and motivated to work for the customer. An engineer once complained that the

salespeople are "always protecting the customer and not thinking of the company's interest'! He went on to blast customers for "asking for too much." The following example highlights the coordination problem: The marketing vice president of a major real estate company wants to increase the market share. His strategy is to build up customer satisfaction through providing

better apartments, accessible locality, better trained sales staff, and better people in management. Yet he has no authority in these matters. The management people

chooses inefficient people that increase the operating costs; the facility management department uses that raw material that will cost low but with no sustainability human resources department hires people without regard to whether they are naturally friendly; the finance department sets the outstanding price. Because these

departments generally take a cost or production point of view, the vice president of marketing is stymied in creating an integrated marketing mix. Integrated marketing takes place on two levels. First, the various marketing functionssales force, advertising, customer service, product management, marketing researchmust work together. Too often the sales force thinks product managers set prices or sale quotas "too high"; or the advertising director and a brand manager all not agree on an advertising campaign. All these marketing functions must be coordinated from the customer's point of view.

43 | P a g e

Second, marketing must be embraced by the other departments; they must also "think customer." According to David Packard of Hewlett-Packard: "Marketing is far too important to be left only to the marketing department!" Marketing is not a department so much as a company wide orientation. Xerox goes so far as to include in every job description an explanation of how that job affects the customer. Xerox factory

managers know that visits to the factory can help sell a potential customer if the factory is clean and efficient. Xerox accountants know that customer attitudes are affected by Xerox’s billing accuracy and promptness in returning calls. To foster teamwork among all departments, the company carries out internal marketing as well as external marketing. External marketing is marketing directed at people

outside the company. Internal marketing is the task of hiring, training, and motivating able employees who want to serve customers well. In fact, internal marketing must precede external marketing. It makes no sense to promise excellent service before the company's staff is ready to provide it.

Profitability
The ultimate purpose of the marketing concept is to help organizations achieve their objectives. In the case of private firms, the major objective is profit; in the case of nonprofit and public organizations, it is surviving and attracting enough funds to perform useful work. Private firms should not aim for profits as such but to achieve profits as a consequence of creating superior customer value. money by satisfying customer needs better than its competitors. A company makes

44 | P a g e

Most companies do not embrace the marketing concept until driven to it by circumstances. Various developments prod them to take the marketing concept to heart:


Sales decline: When sales fall, companies panic and look for answers. Today, newspapers are experiencing declining circulation as more people rely on radio, TV, and the Internet for their news. Some publishers now realize that they know little about why people read newspapers. These publishers are commissioning consumer research and attempting to redesign newspapers to be contemporary, relevant, and interesting to readers. They are also starting Web pages.



Slow growth: Slow sales growth leads some companies to search for new markets. They realize they need marketing skill to identify and select new opportunities. Wanting new sources of revenue, like in the case of the m tech developers where they entered in the medium and small size project in the tier two and tier three cities like Rewari, Sonipat, Karnal, Jind, Jakhal which is totally new area for consumer markets and invested heavily to acquire consumer marketing expertise to perform well in these markets.



Changing buying patterns: Many companies operate in markets characterized by rapidly changing customer wants. These companies need more marketing knowhow if they are to track buyers' changing values. Now customer demand are the stimulating factor for these companies



Increasing competition: Complacent companies may suddenly be attacked by powerful competitors. DLF and Ansals was only players of the market till 2000 but the sudden boom and the liberalized policy of the government on FDI in

45 | P a g e

infrastructure in infrastructure regulated, marketing-naive telephone company until the 1970s, when the government began allowing other companies were jumped in the bandwagon of the real estate bus . No one want to miss that bus to sell their product and services equipment. DLF plunged into the marketing on overseas particularly and hired best marketers it could find to help it compete. Companies in deregulated industries all find it necessary to build up marketing expertise.


Increasing marketing expenditures: Companies may find their expenditures for advertising, research and development, sales promotion, marketing research, and customer service to be poorly done. Management then decides it is time to undertake a serious marketing audit to improve its marketing. In the course of converting to a marketing orientation, a company faces three hurdles: organized resistance, slow learning, and fast forgetting.

Some company departments (often manufacturing, finance, and R&D) believe a stronger marketing function threatens their power in the organization. Initially, the marketing function is seen as one of several equally important functions in a checkand-balance relationship. Lack of demand leads marketers to argue that their function is more important. A few enthusiasts go further and say marketing is the major function of the enterprise, for without customers there would be no company. Enlightened marketers clarify the issue by putting the customer rather than marketing at the center of the company. They argue for a customer orientation in which all functions work together to respond to, serve, and satisfy.

46 | P a g e

THE SOCIETAL MARKETING CONCEPT Some have questioned whether the marketing concept is an appropriate philosophy in age of environmental deterioration, resource shortages, explosive population growth, world hunger and poverty, and neglected social services. Are companies that do an excellent job of satisfying consumer wants necessarily acting in the best long run interests of consumers and society? The marketing concept sidesteps the potential

conflicts among consumer wants, consumer interests, and long-run societal welfare. Consider the following criticism: The recent adopting of land by reliance group(ADAG) for preparing the SEZ in Haryana had come under serious criticism because of unethical acquisition of farm land similarly the land acquire by the Ansals in Manaser had the problem with some group to not having all relevant land transaction paper from the farmer and land owner make the sense that these companies are doing some unethical business In satisfying

consumer wants, these companies may be hurting ethical code of conduct and loosing trust from the mind of the customer . Situations like this one call for a new term that enlarges the marketing concept. Among those suggested are 'humanistic marketing" and "ecological marketing." We propose calling it the societal marketing concept.


The societal marketing concept holds that the organization's task is to determine the needs, wants, and interests of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfactions more effectively and efficiently than competitors in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer's and the society's well-being.

47 | P a g e

The societal marketing concept calls upon marketers to build social and ethical considerations into their marketing practices. They must balance and juggle the often conflicting criteria of company profits, consumer want satisfaction, and public interest. Yet a number of companies have achieved notable sales and profit gains by adopting and practicing the societal marketing concept. In recent past Ansals have started various educational institute in various part of the countries HOW BUSINESS AND MARKETING ARE CHANGING We can say with some confidence that 'the marketplace isn't what it used to be.” It is changing radically as a result of major societal forces such as technological advances globalization, and deregulation. challenges: Customers increasingly expect higher quality and service and some customization They perceive fewer real product differences and show less brand loyalty They cab obtain extensive product information from the Internet and other sources, peel ting them to shop more intelligently. They are showing greater price sensitive their search for value. Brand manufacturers are facing intense competition from domestic and foreign brands, which is resulting in rising promotion costs and shrinking profit margins. They are being further buffeted by powerful retailers who command limited shelf space and are putting out their own store brands in competition with national brands. Store-based retailers are suffering from an over saturation of retailing. Small retailers are succumbing to the growing power of giant retailers and "category killers.' Storebased retailers are facing growing competition from catalog houses; direct-mail firms; 48 | P a g e These major forces have created new behaviors

newspaper, magazine, and TV direct-to-customer ads; home shopping TV; and the Internet. As a result, they are experiencing shrinking margins. In response, entrepreneurial retailers are building entertainment into stores with coffee bars, lectures, demonstrations, and performances. They are marketing an 'experience" rather than a product assortment. COMPANY RESPONSES AND ADJUSTMENTS Companies are doing a lot of soul-searching, and many highly respected companies are changing in a number of ways. Here are some current trends:


Re-engineering: From focusing on functional departments to reorganizing by key processes, each managed by multidiscipline teams.



Outsourcing: From making everything inside the company to buying more goods and services from outside if they can be obtained cheaper and better. A few companies are moving toward outsourcing everything, making them virtual companies owning very few assets and, therefore, earning extraordinary rates of return.



E-commerce: From attracting customers to stores and having salespeople call on offices to making virtually all products available on the Internet. Consumers can access pictures of products, read the specs, shop among on-line vendors for the best prices and terms, and click to order and pay. Business-to-business purchasing is growing fast on the Internet: Purchasing agents can use bookmarked Web sites to shop for routine items. Personal selling can increasingly be conducted

electronically, with buyer and seller seeing each other on their computer screens in real time.

49 | P a g e



Benchmarking: From relying on self-improvement to studying "world-class performers' and adopting "best practices." Also going to six sigma

♦ ♦

Alliances: From trying to win alone to forming networks of partner firms. Partner-suppliers: From using many suppliers to using fewer but more reliable suppliers who work closely in a 'partnership" relationship with the company.

♦ ♦ ♦

Market-centered: From organizing by products to organizing by market segment. Global and local: From being local to being both global and local. Decentralized: From being managed from the top to encouraging more initiative and "entrepreneurship' at the local level.

50 | P a g e

MARKETER RESPONSES AND ADJUSTMENTS
Marketers also are rethinking their philosophies, concepts, and tools. Here are the major marketing themes as the millennium approaches:


Relationship marketing: From focusing on transactions to building long-term, profitable customer relationships. Companies focus on their most profitable customers, products, and channels.



Customer lifetime value: From making a profit on each sale to making profits by managing customer lifetime value. Some companies offer to deliver a constantly needed product on a regular basis at a lower price per unit because they will en- the customer's business for a longer period.



Target marketing: From selling to everyone to trying to be the best firm serving well-defined target markets. Target marketing is being facilitated by the proliferation of special-interest magazines, TV channels, and Internet newsgroups.



Individualization: From selling the same offer in the same way to everyone in the target market to individualizing and customizing messages and offerings. Customers will be able to design their own product features on the company's Web page.



Customer database: From collecting sales data to building rich data warehouse information about individual customers' purchases, preferences, demographics, and profitability. Companies can 'data-mine" their proprietary databases to detect different customer need clusters and make differentiated offerings to each cluster.

communication tool such as advertising or sales force to blending several tools to deliver a consistent brand image to customers at every brand contact.


Channels as partners : From thinking of intermediaries as customers to treating them as partners in delivering value to final customers .in real estate business brokers are the channel partner



Model-based decision making: From making decisions on intuition or slim data to basing decisions on models and facts on how the marketplace works.

In recent years, some have questioned whether the marketing concept is an appropriate philosophy in a world faced with major demographic and environmental challenges. The societal marketing concept holds that the organization's task is to determine the needs, wants, and interests of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfactions more effectively and efficiently than competitors in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer's and the society's well-being. The concept calls upon marketers to

balance three considerations: company profits, consumer want satisfaction, and public interest Therefore relationship marketing is the crux of real estate marketing Relationship marketing is one of the hottest trends in marketing today. Experts have defined the term in many ways-but the bottom line is always getting to know your customers (clients, publics, etc.) better so you can meet their wants and needs better."
