EFFECTIVE PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES FOR THE COSMETICS INDUSTRY

 

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1   BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The establishment of business including cosmetics industry requires that the firms make key decisions. These decisions affect the total marketing programmes of the firm, simply out the marketing strategy. However, one of the vital area of such decision. Which demands proper attention is the promotional strategies of cosmetics industry must initiate promotional policies and programmes to inform, persuade and educate its target audience of the existence of the organization and their products.

            Although creation of demand for a firm’s product may be the ultimate objective of a company’s marketing promotion, this objective is never achieved at one fell swoop. The firm must put in place a set of activities aimed at stimulating demand for their product. This may involve determining the optional combination of the promotional mix, advertising, sales promotion, personal selling, publicity/public relation, direct/marketing and packaging to achieve its promotional objectives. This optional blend is a function of the promotional resource, nature of the product, product just to mention but a few.

            Adirika, Ebue and Nnolim (1996: 35) see promotion as the component used by the organization to inform, educate and persuade the market regarding the company’s offering, advertising, personal selling, sales promotion, publicity and public relations are the major variables of promotion.

            Promotion is a vital ingredient of survival and development, without adequate promotion product may not sell, adequate promotion product may not sell, where they sell, their continuity is in doubt. The art and science of marketing promotion, which comprises advertising, personal selling, sale promotion, public relations and direct marketing is often associated with glamour and flamboyance.  Infact, most of the budget of some companies is spent on promotion because of the need to survive in the competitive marketing environment.

            Edoga and Ani (2000: 243) noted marketing success does not just depend in good product relations, publicity and direct marketing can be used to inform prospective buyers about the benefits of their products, persuade them to try it and remind them later about the benefits of their product, persuade them to try it and remind them later about the benefits they will desire by using the product.

Modern marketing companies are increasingly recognizing the value of an effective communication and promotion programme for their entire public, this includes cosmetics. Ebue noted that modern marketing does not stop at developing a good product, pricing it attractive and marking it really available to target customers. The company must communicate to its target audience, tell good stories, and disseminate information about the products existence, features terms and benefits to the target market.

            Coppo .J. (1972: 201) confirm that the promotional tools serve as supreme vehicles in competition and provides the only way a market richer can hope to penetrate an established market. He went further to state that for a company to excel above others in the competitive market such a company must value important of promotion.

            Choki laboratory came into operation in 1985. It is a cosmetics manufacturing company. It is located at No 3 first Avenue Independence Layout Enugu, with Mr. M.I Onuigbo as the managing Director. The company product has stood the test of time one of their product is Cee-sheen. The company have staffs strength of forty-five (45) with six (6) leaders as casual workers.

            Choki laboratory engage in promotional activities in order to increase sales. Choki laboratory which is one of the  leading  cosmetics industry in Enugu  Metropolis is facing a lot of competitors from cosmetics industries and open market this has seriously threatened their position in the market.

            With the proliferation of cosmetics Industry and attitude of most people in Enugu Metropolis in patronizing open market, there is the need to appraise the promotional strategies used by the company, which is becoming keener everyday. Manufacturers and producers of goods and services  are now aware that promotion does not only inform and persuade, but can strive towards profit making through increased sales to look at effective promotional strategies for the cosmetics industry in Enugu Metropolis with particular interest on Choki Laboratory.

1.2              STATEMENT OF PROBLEM.

Inadequate sale are often given by entrepreneur as major causes of their failure. A careful review of their circumstances often revels abnormal ignorance of the need for promotional skill or deliberate neglect of the necessity for co-ordinated promotional strategies.

            Quite often marketers are very optimistic about sales (patronage) they conceive the wrong notion that their goods will sell themselves, for getting that even the best product/services still need to be stimulated in order to move out of the stores. Infact, the creation of effective promotional strategies is an essential move towards creating a cosmetics industry. The above statement applies equally to cosmetics industry. Despite the numerous advantages inherent in effective promotion, the availability of promotional facilities, the need to use promotion to fight competition in this industry, the use of co-ordinated effective promo-tools by Chuki Laboratories operation is inadequate and has its negative impacts on their operation. It is in the light of the importance attached to promotion that the researcher seeks to find out the best promo-tools strategies that could be used by cosmetics industry, like Choki Laboratory for improved performance.

I actually googled and saw about iproject master, copied the number and contacted them through WhatsApp to ask for the availability of the material and to my luck they have it. So there was a delay with the project due to the covid19 pandemic. I was really scared before making the payment cause I’ve been scammed twice, they attended so well to me and that made me trust the process and made the payment and provided them with proof, I got my material in less than 10minutes
