I was selected for Pidilite&#8217;s &#8220;rurban division&#8221; after a group  discussion followed by two rounds of personal interviews with the  divisional and human resources heads of the company. The rurban division  deals with the sales and marketing of products in rural areas, covering  towns with less than 50,000 people.<\/p>\n<p>The project assigned to me was to implement a sustainable  distribution model for the company&#8217;s products in towns with less than  10,000 inhabitants. It was a challenging task for the company to reach  out to these places. Even if they came up with a distribution model in  one state, it would not work in another state.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/At-the-dealers.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-3813\" title=\"At the dealers\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/At-the-dealers-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a>My first task was to evaluate a model that the company had  implemented successfully in Uttar Pradesh and present my observations. I  also had to come up with a new model which the company could implement  in states where the earlier model did not fit. The second part of my  internship was spent doing research in Karnataka and implementing the  new model derived from the lessons learnt in UP.<\/p>\n<p>I was expected to travel to different rural locations every day. I  would travel by bus or train and go about my task of gathering data.  This job was really exciting as every day was different. I was  continuously travelling and meeting new people. Every day brought new  experiences, resulting in immense learning about how business is carried  out at the ground level in rural India. On the weekends, I would  collate the data and, in my spare time, visit some nearby tourist spots  and chill out.<\/p>\n<p>The most important thing I learnt was about the customers&#8217; behaviour  in two most contrasting regions of India. In Uttar Pradesh I found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-leads-the-team.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3814\" title=\"Rishi leads the team\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-leads-the-team-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-leads-the-team-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-leads-the-team-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-leads-the-team.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>the  people very helpful whereas in Karnataka even a simple communication was  an issue due to the language barrier. I understood that one would have  to act differently in different places. I got a better understanding of  the complexities in business situations and learnt how to do business  and handle distributors in different parts of India. I also learnt about  the distribution networks of other fast moving consumer goods giants  such as Hindustan Unilver Limited and ITC Ltd. I learnt that &#8220;one size  doesn&#8217;t fit all&#8221;, especially in the Indian business scenario. Every  person in the country has to realise this sooner or later in order to  survive and grow. My internship taught me that whatever one learns in a  classroom is different from ground realities. That doesn&#8217;t mean one  needs to hit the ground running because your education prepares you to  face the world. Gathering data, which was the main objective of my  internship, is becoming very complex. Understanding and handling the  field dynamics is a major challenge for most companies.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to tell my fellow students to be open to any challenge  that comes your way. Be ready to travel, work those extra hours, and  just enjoy whatever you face! Do not get bogged down by the projects  assigned to you, pump life into a seemingly dead project and see the  result. Even if one is assigned a data entry job during internship,  effort should be made to find better ways to enter that data.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-making-a-presentation-at-AURUM-annual-roundtable-on-Rural-Management.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3815 aligncenter\" title=\"Rishi making a presentation at AURUM ,annual roundtable on Rural Management\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Rishi-making-a-presentation-at-AURUM-annual-roundtable-on-Rural-Management-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a>My summer internship project was selected among the top 10 in an  all-India competition organised by the Rural Management Association of  India, a premier industry body devoted to furthering the cause of rural  marketing.
