I have had a series of exciting experiences all along my college  life, for instance, during my MBA days I was a Research Assistant for a  Mumbai Based Non Profit Organization which audits the Performances of  the Elected Representatives of Mumbai (MP\/MLA\/Councilor) based on their  promises before getting elected. I was also freelancing as a guest  speaker on All India Radio Show \u2018YuvaVani\u2019 where I used to passionately  speak on issues facing the youth.<\/p>\n<p>In 2012, I got an opportunity to do my  summer project with Pidilite Industries Ltd post which the organization  offered to induct me in to their Management Trainee Program and straight  from the air conditioned class rooms of Mumbai, I was posted to Bihar  for my Front Line Sales Training.

These days a lot of articles and books romanticize rural as an ultimate  career option while when hit with hard realities of rural India on the  ground, one does start having a change of mind. So if you are passionate  about rural and are ready to walk out of your comfort zone then rural  will be a great value add.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Being a city bred person, how easy or difficult was it to gain a deep understanding of the rural market?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I would be lying if I say the transition was very easy and I reveled  meandering in Rural India.

It was then in the month of December that me and my team  undertook a massive operations of 3 months to establish and upgrade our  rural infrastructure and I am proud of the fact that by the end of  February, our network of hub and spokes rivaled some of the biggest FMCG  companies operating in Jharkhand<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Rural markets are heterogeneous in nature. What are the different product strategies adopted by you to tap different markets?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>One of the key challenges of rural is driving awareness of your  product, I mean you cannot just put a pan India television ad and hope  that the rural consumers would be queuing up to buy your product. It is  here that the role of influencers plays a very vital part. We realized  that very early on and now we engage influencers in every category that  we are present in. So in driving awareness for our <em>Fevistik <\/em>and<em> Rangella<\/em> range of colors we engage a lot of teachers in rural.

As we go about  penetrating rural markets one has to travel deep inside rural areas and  at times do night halts at places where one wonders if he will get a  good night\u2019s sleep or not. Pot holed roads, rickety public transport  overflowing with passengers hanging on to dear life by holding on to  rusted door handles. The heat and dust, mosquitos and unhygienic food at  local dhabas can dampen the enthusiasm of the most passionate rural  marketer.
