As an intern at Sree Narayan Builders,- I conducted a market survey spanning across 12 districts in West Bengal, covering 360+ dealers to find their grievances and requirements. - Sought suggestions regarding advertisement requirements of the dealers (like hoardings, posters, wall-painting, pamphlets, etc.) to improve consumer awareness, increase sales. - Based on the survey, I developed new marketing plans targeting new customer segments for increasing company's engagement and brand recognition. - Revamped marketing literature, collaterals and product manuals to support sales and marketing processes across sales and marketing teams; resulting in increased sales by 10% while reducing marketing expenses by 20% and customer complaints by 50%.- I also solved dealer's problems regarding product quality, rust issues (TMT rebars), issues of short supply, etc. and checked the financial feasibility of their demands.
