Company introduction:
The shoe company that I have introduced is “Walkers”. The purpose and objective of my
shoe company is to make stylish and comfortable shoes for of ages ranging from 13 and
above, so that the people can themselves find what suites them best for their walk.

Promotional budget:
The method that I have decided to work with is objective and task method. In this method a
company sets its promotional budget based on what it wants to accomplish with promotion.
According to this method I will define my promotional objectives, I will determine the tasks
that are needed to achieve the objectives, estimate the costs of performing those tasks and
then summing those costs would make the appropriate promotional budget.

Defining the promotional objectives:


● To inform the people about the existence of Walkers.

● To attract people to my products which would lead to increase in demand.

● To create and improve the image of walkers.

● The persuade the consumers

● To differentiate walkers from the rest of the market.

Tasks needed to achieve these objectives:


● In order to inform people about Walkers, I will think of ways to advertise it and to do
that I would contact the number displayed on the bill boards to display my ad at
different locations of the city. I will contact ad agencies to distribute pamphlets to
costumers and at different markets.

● When making the advertisement I would use a celebrity in the advertisement to lure
the public to my product. When people would see their favourite actor or actress in
my advertisement, it would make them want to buy my products.

● To create and improve the image of walkers I would make such an ad which would
show the product using different relations thus creating an emotional bond with the
[Link] accomplish this I would hire an ad company that would make a creative
advertisement . For example a daughter buying a shoes for her father as a father’s day
gift. We are socially contributing.
● I will provide amazing service at the store thus persuading the consumers to shop
from walkers. Also offering warranty services to portray excellence in my products. I
will offer them incentives such as buy two get one free.

● The most important thing in shoes is comfort and since Walkers offers comfortable
shoes that is what will differentiate walkers from the rest of the market in order to do
that I would hire experienced people that would have the knowledge on how to make
comfortable shoes. People will realise that buying walkers shoes will ensure them
comfort for the whole day.

Estimating the costs:


First is putting up my advertisement on the Rawalpindi kecheri chowk billboard for the first 7
days of the opening of the store and this would cost about 280,000. Then near Eid I will again
put the advertisement about the eid shoe collection on the kecheri chowk billboard for a
week, which will cost 280, 0000. Then when winter comes I will put an advertisement on the
kecheri chowk billboard about the winter collection, which would cost about 280,000. I will
get a creative ad of duration 15 seconds made by an ad company which will probably cost 8
lac and I will hire a celebrity to come in that ad which would cost 5 lac. that ad would be
aired on on Ary channel which would cost 90,000 per [Link] would be shown 20 times a
day, for the first 2 weeks of month 1 and the first 2 weeks of month 2 .which would make
12,600,000 Rs. By offering the incentives it will cost me 30% of my profit. Rs. 1500 is the
cost of giving this promotional incentive to the costumer considering that one shoe would
cost the customers 5,000. I will hire 35 people to work in the walkers’ factory I will pay the
5 designers 80,000 per month which would make 4,800,000 a year. As for the 30 people who
will help in the manufacturing, I will pay those 30,000 a month, which would make my costs
10,800,000 a year.

Summing the costs:


Advertising costs: 13,440,000 Rs in a year

Incentives cost: 1500 Rs per buy in year

Hiring costs: 15,600,000 Rs per year

Company slogan:
“Choose your walk with style”

allowing people to be able to carry their own style.

Campaigns:

brought the company on a completely new platform, which built a strong impression on the
consumers. The commercial took the attention of many as instead of showing its rubber
sandals and standard unenthusiastic shoes, it managed to keep the viewers engaged in the
interesting faces and expressions.
