OBJECTIVES

Practical learning is vital part in management training. The theoretical study is to put in a
proactive manner in the training procedure which helps to understand the concepts and
applications in a broader sense. I worked as a trainee in marketing with the company. My
foremost objective was for gaining maximum experience and exposure in the company. It
always was a goal for me to complete the given Projects within the time constraints and with
full efficiency.

Without the practical exposure one cannot consider himself or herself as a qualified capable
manager. During the training period a student learn through his own experience, the real
situation of the corporate world and to put the theoretical knowledge into practice. This
experience is very valuable for the student and plays a leading and an important role in the
career of the student.

Hence to fulfill this requirement, I completed my two months Training in Celebrity Fitness
India Pvt. Ltd ,

I covered areas in the duration of two - months internship, as follows:

 Promotion
 Corporate marketing
 BTL(Below The Line) Activity
 Branding
 Customer Relationship Management
 Responsibility as a Manager

STP ANALYSIS OF CELEBRITY FITNESS

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


SEGMENTATION STRATEGY OF CELEBRITY FITNESS:
Marketing and Branding

A market segment consists of a group of customer who share a similar set of need and want.
Rather than creating the segment, the marketer’s task is to identify them and decide which
one to target.

Segment marketing offer key benefit over mass marketing. Segmentation consists of a group
of customer who share a similar set of need and want.

Celebrity Fitness has been known for its “unconventionalism” in dealing with various
activities of advertisement and promotion, identifying potential customers to the actual

Marketing and Branding

the conventional health clubs, fitness centers, spa house etc. Celebrity Fitness has segmented
the market on the following major criteria:

Geographic Segmentation: Celebrity Fitness cements itself in Gurgaon in December 2009


with a club in one of the busy area in the city.

Demographic Segmentation: Celebrity Fitness has also segmented the market based on the
demographic attributes of the customers such as age, gender, income group etc. The age
group varies from 15-50yrs; gender both male and female, income group varies extensively.
It segments from professionals to housewives to teenagers to young individuals.

Psychographic Segmentation: Different people have different value systems, varying


personality traits, beliefs, attitudes, separate self image and an altogether different way to
look at life (lifestyle). As a result their needs and preferences also differ, so Celebrity Fitness
categorizes its services accordingly like yoga, aerobics, RPM and meditation.

Behavioral Segmentation: Customers exhibit varying behavioral patterns towards different


products. Different customers have different perceptions about different products and hence
weigh the value derived from each product differently. Celebrity Fitness was quick to realize
this and hence provides its service to every customer according to his liking which ranges
from personal training to aerobics and much more.

o Corporate: Gurgaon is a city where there are lots of people who are stressed out
with their hectic schedule and work pressure. Celebrity Fitness targets to such
individuals because of its ideal working hours and sound services to the need of such
consumers. As Celebrity fitness pictures a night club theme and the club is designed
for energetic people these corporate ideally matches the entity. Celebrity Fitness
targets this section because of the income level as well. Moreover, such individuals
are very conscious about one so they ideally fit into the criteria.

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 12
Marketing and Branding

o Housewives: Usually, housewives have very less time to go out and workout and
thus they gain weight just being at home. Celebrity Fitness took an attempt to target
such ladies who cannot get time due to households. Time convenient classes, long
duration, customization makes them suitable for the target market

o Entrepreneurs: Businessmen are one of a kind who are very busy and does not get
much time to work out but fits into the criteria of A- A+ segment.

o Need: The target segment here is quiet different because need is the basic
requirement of a human being and marketing is all about creating need. Today as the
glamour industry is boosting up each and every individual wants to look perfect and
desires to have a great body. The self consciousness and the confidence in an
individual him brings him to a gym. Keeping this in mind, Celebrity Fitness hits the
emotional aspects applicable here. Until a service/product hits his senses or conscious
he will never buy it. So, Celebrity Fitness creates such needs and targets the sensitive
area of such people who have low self esteem, shyness etc. due to their body.

METHODOLOGY

The project comprises of marketing and branding of Celebrity Fitness in every respect
possible in and around the city Gurgaon, Haryana. Since the company is new to India, brand
awareness was of foremost importance. While the continuation of the project we came across
many of situations, hurdles, insights which were remarkable and provided learning in a varied
manner. The project was as follows:

 Celebrity Fitness, being a very new MNC to India the best way we could figure out to
promote and increase sales was to create brand awareness among the individuals in the
city. People were not much aware about the club, the services it endorse, the quality and
the ambience, so it was comparatively tough and time consuming job. As Celebrity
Fitness targets to A – A++ category, it was necessary to keep in mind during the project
that the walk –ins coming to the club due to the promotional activities must be of that
segment and should turn fruitful to the organization. A plan was inculcated for the brand
awareness program to run successfully with the ideas to be generated during the various
marketing activity to be conducted

 BTL ACTIVITY (Below The Line Activity)

BTL activations can be strategically or tactical in nature, depending upon the type of
activation. BTL activations are most commonly used for sales promotions, branding,
product launch, expansion, lead generation. Marketers have different objective for
different activities. BTL in marketing is considered one of the most effective tools of
product promotion. BTL-events allow not only to create positive image of the
company, to get acquainted the customer with the product, to get interested the
prospects in product purchasing, but also helps to provide all necessary information

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 37
Marketing and Branding

on terms of purchase, using and storage of product/service. Visual presentation of a


product increases customer loyalty and allows for increasing product sales volumes.

 The activity was done to achieve sales, awareness customer retention, customer
acquisition, brand visibility etc. The project thus mainly focused on conducting of such
activity to fulfill the purpose. The activity was as follows:

 Setting up of a canopy- The idea of the activity was to set up a canopy of


the organization at suitable places and interact with people in the surrounding,
collect their contact details i.e. Buddy Reference(BR) and tell them about
Celebrity Fitness, its specialty, core competencies and the offerings its providing
during these activities.

 Coupons- 14 days of free trial to the health club and avail any of the facilities
in the club. This will improve sales revenue, brand awareness, walk ins to the
club. This acts as a duo- sales promotion as well as branding. This creates a great
opportunity to people and they get attracted to the offer and the target of the club
is achieved. The 14 days free trail of accessibility to the club provides a customer

Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 38
Marketing and Branding

delight and a good name as well for the club.

 Interaction with the individuals- While distributing the coupons, we got


an opportunity to interact with number of people which was the motto of the
activity and helped us to know about their preferences and contact details.

 Queries- Solutions- Many people had a misconception about their health, club
and the services which were taken care off during the interactions.

 Health Evaluations- BMI (Body Mass Index) test was conducted which
helped to know the visitors their body- weight ratio and other health tips. This
particular test helps in management of obesity, under nutrition and metabolic
syndromes.

The BTL Activity was done in organized and unorganized market which had
completely different outcomes-

 Organized Market- Organized Market was much more composed,


systematic and process oriented. The organized market we targeted was
Pantaloons which also looks towards upper to high income group. Being
similar target group Pantaloons was ideal for such activity. The results of the
activity were quiet satisfactory as the BR’s collected were of decent standards
as the footfall was good and in a pleasant manner.

 Unorganized Market- Unorganized market where the activity was done


was- sector 14, 56, and 32. The scenario of unorganized sector was very
different from organized sector like that of there was no such decision making
authorities for the permission, no co ordinations required beforehand. Only
thing was to deal with the local shopkeepers and the control authorities.
Moreover, the crowd collected was of varying income groups, standards,
culture etc.
Segregating the potential customers from the unorganized market was
comparatively tough than the organized sector.

 CORPORATE MARKETING

Gurgaon is a city consisting of number of corporate houses, manufacturing units,


head offices and most of them are multinational companies, so pitching them for
turning them as members will be beneficial for the club as well these houses and they
also fulfills the criteria of the organization’s target group. Corporate Marketing starts
with the decisions of which companies to be targeted. As Gurgaon is packed up with
innumerable companies, it was necessary to watch out and filter the organizations
which were fruitful for us. Keeping this in mind, a procedure was followed as:

 Collection of Database- The list of the companies to be targeted, information


of the company, concerned person to talk with are some of the crucial activities
were done.

 Cold Calling- Cold calling was done to get the above information and it was
seen that the Human Resource (HR) / Administration Department was the

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 41
Marketing and Branding

concerned authority to deal with. Appointments and meetings were continued for
corporate deals and conducting of BTL activity in corporate houses.

The term 'below-the-line' promotion refers to non-media communication, even non-media


advertising. In other words BTL activities are all forms of promotion other than advertising –
direct mails, exhibitions, sales promotions, branding, merchandising, personal selling,
packaging, public relations. BTL activity helps in interacting with customer one-on-one and
also resolving their quire with personal touch.

BTL in marketing is considered one of the most effective tools of product promotion. BTL-
events allow not only to create positive image of the company, to get acquainted the customer
with the product, to get interested the prospects in product purchasing, but also helps to
provide all necessary information on terms of purchase, using and storage of product/service.
Visual presentation of a product increases customer loyalty and allows for increasing product
sales volumes.

EFFECT OF BTL ACTIVITY

INTERACTION PERCEPTION

. MEASURABILTY

active participant in a marketing dialogue, rather than a target of an aggressive direct
sales or branding effort.

communications via preferred channels that are both convenient and accessible.

 Measurability – The extent to which a marketer can track the results of an individual
initiative, determine commensurate return-on-investment and adjust future campaigns
to provide for an enhanced chance of success.

CORPORATE DEAL- The companies with which we planned further to have a


corporate deal were Maruti Suzuki, Perfetti, Information Mosaic, IREO, Cargill Foods.
These all MNC’s were interested in corporate deal i.e. a kind of commitment between the two
which is beneficial for the two. Celebrity Fitness promises some of the discounts and
vouchers if the other party offers a committed membership of certain individuals. The
corporate discount chart is as followed:

Other corporate houses which we catered for just increasing sales and membership
irrespective of corporate deal were Whirlpool, Adidas, Future group, Tec nova,

the results were proved to be beneficial for the club.

exposure to consumers, marketing new products and services, and making consumers or

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata

Marketing and Branding

 Market places are the places where people come usually to shop, relax with
family, entertainment and interacting with them in such places become quite
difficult because they are usually not in a mood to get disturbed when they are
enjoying. So, interaction with them becomes arduous..
 At times people are not in a good mood to talk and thus it again creates problem
to collect BR from such individuals.
 The data i.e. Buddy Reference may not be every time right. People give wrong
information to avoid any kind of mishaps.
 In corporate houses, the professionals are usually stressed up and they are not
ready to listen.
 Corporate houses, people don’t have much time to listen. So, interaction with
them is a difficult job.
 There is a negative perception of people about the BTL Activity that it is to
irritate them with phone calls.
 At times difficult to manage.

The entire work was of wholesome learning journey which led us to know the following
things:

CONSUMER BEHAVIOR:

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 55
Marketing and Branding

Human nature acts differently in different conditions. Furthermore, no two individuals are
same so each acts differently. Consumer behavior is referred to as the study of when, why,
how, where and what people do or do not buy products. It attempts to understand the buyer
decision making process, both individually and in groups. It studies characteristics of
individual consumers such as demographics and behavioral variables in an attempt to
understand people's wants. It also tries to assess influences on the consumer from groups such

as family, friends, reference groups, and society in general .Customer behavior study is based
on consumer buying behavior, with the customer playing the three distinct roles of user,
payer and buyer.

The activities in any of the places gave an immense pathway to interact with various kinds of
people with all different mentality. It was observed that people had different perception and
each has to be dealt tactfully to fulfill the objective. Some were generous enough to give their
number but vice versa many were not ready to even talk. Moreover, the behavior also
depends on factors like social, cultural and personal.

HOLISTIC MARKETING:

As Celebrity Fitness is in service industry, it is of utmost importance for it to have a holistic


marketing behavior. Holistic here refers to be ‘for the consumer’. This can be seen from the
way each member is treated. Each and every customer is of prime importance and is treated
with supreme service. Such relationship leads to customer satisfaction, retention, and at times
helps to gather actual customer insights.

NEED:

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 56
Marketing and Branding

Creating need is one of most important marketing tool used. Unless a marketer creates a need
in the mind of his customer for the good, cannot sell it. So, it is very important to make your
target show the importance of the product.

Two strategies are possible:

Price
 Push up the perceived value:
Value

In which case will the customer


buy?

 Bring down the perceived price:


Value

Price

Definitely, the customer moulds towards the value weight. So it is very necessary to make
one understand the importance to mould him in the desired direction.

SPOTTING OUT TARGET GROUP:

Marketing is to be done through proper channel or else it will lead to adverse effect. Selecting
target group is a crucial activity. Like that of Celebrity Fitness, only targets A- A+ category,

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata


Celebrity Fitness India Pvt. Ltd. 57
Marketing and Branding

its marketing activities and promotion is only concerned to such group. So, it is necessary to
identify the target segment. This is can be described as follows:

The target market study was huge to understand and is back bone of a marketing division.

VALUE SATISFACTION:

Customer should have a feeling of pleasure from the club because they are the who help to
generate revenue. Customer retention is customer satisfaction. Value satisfaction is a prime
require meant in service industry.

International School of Business & Media, Kolkata

CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT:

Customer relationship Management is another important learning in this industry. It acts for
a good name of Celebrity Fitness, Customer delight and Value Proposition (i.e. customer
gets more than what he desires). Celebrity Fitness takes care of the relationship with its
member in the most effective way like that of

 Various discount coupons to other destinations like Blue eyes, Odyssey, Rajdhani, In
vogue etc.
 Greetings on special occasions like birthday, anniversary etc. to the members.
 Inviting them to any of the blasts as a member of entire family of Celebrity Fitness.
 Special offers from Club Mahindra and PepsiCo (Gatorade) to the members.
 The happy hours i.e. when the charges are minimal.

SERVICE GAPS:

It is a gap between what customers is expecting and what he actually gets. The gap may be
as follows:

 Knowledge gap- Difference between the service providers i.e. the employees of the
club believe what member expects to the members actual need.
 2 standard gap- Management’s perception of member’s expectation to quality
standards of service delivery differs a lot.
 Delivery gap- What actual is delivered to the members to that of what is to be
delivered in terms of contract.
 Internal communication gap- Difference between the club’s personnel thinks about
the services and their delivery.
 Perception gap- What is delivered to the members and what they actually perceive.

PERSONAL LEARNING:

Celebrity Fitness has been of immense help not only professionally but also personally. It
helped to nurture all the management skill within me and shaped me to a future manager. I
learned to react in arduous situations more tactfully and sensibly. Celebrity Fitness improved
my confidence and motivated me to be a successful manager. Moreover, it shaper my all
round performances and showed me a pathway to the corporate world.

SUGGESSTIONS
 SPA and Massage therapies can be implemented.
 Swimming pool can be customized.
 Corporate Social Responsibility- i.e. gifting a plant to a customer that will also give a
customer delight.
 Customer Complaints box should be there at the reception which will keep the
customer happy and as well help the club to know about the customer insights.
 In a service industry, a service gap always exists like that of customer –perceived
value and management – perceived value. Such gaps should be taken into
consideration.
 Timely a questionnaire can be filled from the customers to know about the updating
required and the feedback measurement.
 Hoardings on front side of Malls which is visible from the Road.

 Parking/No parking Boards of Premium Malls & Restaurants.

 Sponsoring events which consist of A+ customer.

FUTURE OF HEALTH INDUSTRY IN INDIA

“All work no play makes jack a dull boy” is a well known saying and fits true for
today’s generation. India, being one of the growing conglomerates with an unedifying
pace makes it the best place for such industry. The concept of fitness has been procured in
India long time back, form the ages of ayurveda, but has lost its importance in this fast
food life. Once again with all these health ventures investing in India, the scenario of
health industries is taking a turn back to consciousness. Major players like Celebrity
Fitness, Fitness First, Ministry of Fitness and Gold Gym are contributing a bulk to this
sector. There is an enormous untapped market for these health clubs and a very new area
to be targeted. With Growth in the numbers of the urban middle class and strong growth
in greater income well for levels augurs the growth of leisure industry. It is estimated that
by 2020 India’s urban population as a percentage of total population will rise to 40%,
with 400 million people living in 60-70 large cities, each with a population of one million
or more. This implies a bright future for fitness industry in India.
Moreover, the last decade the average Indian spending has rocketed from Rs 5745 in
1992-93 to Rs 16,457 in 2003-2004 and is expected to grow at 12% hereafter. India has
many folds still to be open like people getting more conscious about their health,
increasing risk of health hazards, growing trend of glamour, self –confidence, at most
leisure and relaxation.

In India, people are looking forward for such health clubs which can necessitates their all
need under one roof. Celebrity Fitness is gradually curving its name in Indian market and
is in the process of building a reputation to reckon with in respect to other existing
players.
