6. Concept
Indians love to celebrate festivals and special occasions and one activity that happens big time during
this period is shopping. People splurge money buying new clothes and gold (jewellery) for their family
members and it gives an aura and auspiciousness to the whole occasion.
Kalamandir can leverage the occasion by giving an enticing offer apart from regular festive discounts.

7. Idea – The Golden Bill Contest
All the retailers are offering more or less same discounts during Ugadi 2012. Apart from regular
discounts given at Kalamandir stores, now customers has a reason to shop at Kalamandir because of
The Golden Bill Contest. The golden bill contest is the differentiating factor where
1.It gives a special feeling of taking home prosperity in the form of gold coins.
2.And it gives a feel-good factor to customers that the relationship with Kalamandir doesnʼt end with
shopping this Ugadi.
