Job Purpose

Coordinate & achieve the specified sales areas sales targets of white cement & new products in trade sales through prospecting, identifying project sites through retaining & attracting new customers, demand generation activities, product promotion activities so as to contribute in achieving the sales targets

1. The White Cement industry currently has surplus capacity. The advent of substitutes has resulted in a major decline in White cement applications. The trend is towards use of modern and convenient applications. The other direct competitor (JK) is not firm on policies and resorts to heavy price cutting and extended credit. JK is also not serious when it comes to expansion of market. Birla White has to lead in expanding the market by promoting applications. Adding to this is the heavy MRP based excise which results in high prices for white cement as compared to grey cement
2. White Cement is a low involvement product. It is an ingredient in exterior/interior finishes but the company cannot showcase a readymade finished product. All applications are through outside agencies hence the company has no control over the finish
