Branding: A very important decision area for marketing of most consumer products is whether to sell the product in its generic name (name of the category of the product, say Fan, Pen, etc.) or to sell them in a brand name (such as Pollar Fan or Rottomac Pen). Brand name helps in creating product differentiation, i.e., providing basis for distinguishing the product of a firm with that of the competitor, which in turn, helps in building customer’s loyality and in promoting its sale.
Packing: Packaging is an important factor in the product mix. It has played a major role in the success and failure of the product. It is very important for some products to have proper packing but when products are packed properly and are attractive then the consumers are inclined towards buying them.
