Dollar: wear the change


Is Dollar failing to bring the required change?


Recently 
Dollar Industries Ltd changed its logo and tagline as a revamping exercise and to rejuvenate the brand. It changed its slogan from "fit hai boss" to "wear the change."
Currently, it is having a market share of 15 percent in the hosiery segment in India.

They have said in their official release they are targetting younger audiences. What astonished me is that they are continuing with the same brand ambassador, i.e, Akshay Kumar, from approx ten years. I think if they want to focus on revamping the brand, then they should seriously focus on the face of the brand.

If one looks closely at its competitors Rupa(who is currently the market leader) and Lux innerwear (who is also having close to 20 percent market share), these brands have roped in young actors as their faces. Rupa has Ranveer Singh as it's brand ambassador, while Lux has chosen Varun Dhawan as their brand ambassador.

Should Dollar also focus on this factor? Your views on this?

Bell the CAT 2019

Now, these days are the most nail-biting ones when the adrenaline rush is there. CAT '19 is just two weeks ahead. It is the most crucial stage when students put their best efforts to gain an advantage over others. CAT is one of the most difficult entrance exams where many students put their best efforts over the years in the race of getting admissions in top B-school. Now I am hoping your preparation would be running at full pace but you should really keep a few things in mind. CAT, unlike other exams, is not about just hard labor but also acting smartly. It's those three hours which decide how you are going to fare. So, instead of becoming nervous its time to act wisely. Now let me tell you plans for these 15 days and for the exam which I followed, I hope it would work for you. In these 15 days don't give too many mocks , just one or two is fine instead start focusing on your weak areas where you are actually lagging. Start analyzing your past mock papers and try to ...

Expected percentile and colleges to apply

Now as CAT is over and IIM has also released a response sheet, you all must be wondering about the expected percentile and colleges to apply. So, based on previous year stats I am going to predict the percentile and accordingly colleges to apply. If your score is somewhere around 158 then you would be getting 99 percentile and you would have plenty of options. Maximum chances are there you would get a call from L, K, I., FMS. If your score is around 148, then your percentile would be around 98 and IIM Kozhikode and Indore still may call you. You can all apply to colleges like MDI, NITIE(only for engineers), IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras, SP Jain, DFS.  Options of New IIM would always be there if you clear sectional cut-off. If your score is around 128 then you would get approx 95 percentile and you may get a call from New IIM's and from IMT Ghaziabad, IMI Delhi, Ximb Bhubaneshwar, IIT Roorkee, IIT Kanpur, DSE, DBE, IIM Ranchi hrm. If your score is aro...

Power unlimited to movie

Movies and unlimited powers Often we forget that the best way to target an audience is through emotions. And when it comes to emotion what could be better than Movies. We think movies are just for entertainment but the subtle message which is hidden in most of the movies we ignore that. There are countless lessons that are hidden inside a movie. All it takes an eye and different angles to observe that. Why I am in particular focusing on movies, as a right-brained person visuals appeal to me more than information. So, I think short video and movies has twice the impact which information can. Just take the example of the movie "Drishyam". It has clearly depicted power which of visuals. What I see gets stamped on our brain for a longer period of time in comparison to what we read. Being a movie-enthusiast I thought to through some light on an area that is either sidelined or stereotyped. Often brands have also leveraged the opportunity of targeting audiences by perfec...
