Visiting Scholar - Phd CandidateUniversity Of Virginia Darden School Of Business 2011 - 2012Charlottesville, VirginiaVisiting Scholar/Researcher (Phd Student) at the Darden School of Business with Marketing Professors Paul Farris and Rajkumar Venkatesan to work on research with the aim of understanding how consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies could achieve positive results by managing their brands through different retail formats in an emerging market such as Brazil. We analyzed sales of all brands of soft drinks, plus related advertising, promotions, and in-store merchandising, over more than four years in a largely urban region in southeastern Brazil. The area included both large chain retailers and small independent stores. We found that the effectiveness of marketing mix elements varies with the channel format. For instance, where full-service, mom-and-pop stores predominate, mass advertising is less effective but package size variety and market coverage (i.e., distribution) is particularly important to the marketing mix. Our study highlighted that marketing mix strategies popular in the self-service dominant channels of the developed economies are not as effective in the smaller full-service formats that remain important in emerging economies. Raj and I presented this research at the 2011 Theory and Practice in Marketing hosted by the Harvard Business School and then it got published in the Journal of Retailing. -
