Why marketers should not fall in love:

Why marketers should not fall in love,
The reason is not being lousy, not even the time,
It has to do with the qualities inherent, the tuning of the chimes.

When a marketer looks for  love,
He goes for a market research,
He thinks about the sample and the respondent,
Whether it has to be a college girl or someone from the convent.

He draws out an exhaustive questionnaire,
Which never is to be filled.
Sometimes shopping mysterily,
If caught is to be killed.

Now comes the analysis part,
Which never comes so easy,
SPSS or Excel, which software to choose,
Lips pink or red, hair tied or loose.

Now comes the stage so tricky,
The STP can be loose or can be sticky.
The segment which he chose, never pay him heed,
The targeting seems never succeed.

Positioning looks like a game of trial and error,
Should he be amicable or try a strategy of terror.
Should he try some cheesy lines,
Or be a lover walking along the mines.

Offers need to be made to customers,
Sweepstakes in the form of moon and stars,
All go in vain, if you don’t offer diamond or car.
 
Many a time customer turnover doesn’t take place,
The product life cycle takes an accelerated pace.
Before even the introduction, the product declines,
No brand engagement, even the brand manager resigns.

India against corruption “Practise what preach”, this is an ideology which is taught to us from our childhood. But it seems like an outdated concept in this real world. Our politicians preach living a simple life while driving in a SUV and that too on public expense; our cricketers preach playing fair, while the winners fall to the bottom of fair play table. Our actors preach, “No to drugs” while Caught in camera in inebriated state. Media preaches fair jurisdiction and jurisdiction for all while carrying out “incriminate the accused campaign” and the list goes on. But this is not about the actors, politicians, cricketers, media; it is about the common man. This is about an incident which I came across in a small town in M.P, last year. During the month of April 2011,there was a large hue and cry regarding the anticorruption campaign and the Lokpal bill. The rage reached to the level of a revolution, where the whole country seems to be united under one agenda. Although the m...

A tribute to all rape victims

Maa aaj muje aane me jara der ho jaegi, Pata nhi aaj kudrat muj par kesa qahar dhayegi. Maa yahan raste pe ghana andhera hai, Samne ek bijli ke pole ko logo ka ghera hai. Maa unhe dekh kar mera ji ghabra raha, Aaspaas to koi aur hai hi nahi yaha. Dabe paao mai aage badhi jaa rahi hoon, Bas agle mod pahuch jaaoon mann hi mann mana rahi hoon. Khuda ka shukra hai, ghar saamne hi dikh raha hai, Par yeh kya koi mera peecha kar raha hai. Maa tu jara chaukhat pe aa jaa, Thodi himmat bandh jaegi, Jane yh insaniyat aaj kesa kahar dhaegi. Shayad  peechha karne wala bhi agne ghar ja rha hoga, Yahi soch kar m dil ko tassali de rahi hoon, Par chehre se tapakte paseene k beech mann hi mann ro rahi hoon. Maa ab to yeh aage aa ke mera rasta rok raha hai, Abhi samne dikhne wala mera ghar jane kaha hai. Muje jaane do bhai esi mene fariyad ki, Mann hi mann mene isht dev ki shakal yaad ki. Saamne khada rakshas mujh par dahad maar kar hasa, Uski bhayanak kaya dekh kar ...

chhuttan ka chunaav ticket

Aaj hum sunayenge aapko chhuttan bhaiya ki katha, Netaon ki chaplusi aur band-hadtal hai inke parivar ki pratha. Sabhi pradarshano mein shamil hote, Chahe mudde se bhi wakif na hote. Ek baar to age badh kar putle ka dahan kia, Party adhyaksha ko impress karne ka risk lia. Putla jala kar mude, aur neta ji ki ankho se ankhe milayi, Neta ji ne bhi badh kar apni hateli badhayi. Chhuttan bhaiya khushi se foole nhi samaye, Socha na jane ab kab netaji ka bulawa aye. Khushi mein doston ke sath dawat udayi, Doston ne bhi chhuttan ki khub ki khichayi. Dusre din party daftar se chhuttan ko phone aya, Chhuttan ne apna khadi ka kurta chadhaya. Chhuttan ko ese roop mein dekh log dang reh gaye, Soche is gali ke gunde ke din kese fir gaye. Kurta pehan chhuttan bhaiya ne road se sansad tak ke sapne bun liye, Samne lag nai ke board par MP ki shapath padh liye. Chhuttan khayalo se nikla to wo party daftar ke samne tha, Party daftar karyakartao se...
