Push And Pull Your Products In The Market And Thrive Your Sale

All the entrepreneurs are aware of advertising and many other forms of promotions directed towards the target audiences. Television advertisements, radio advertisements, and even Newspaper advertisements all are the active part of promotions. But a company must have the knowledge of every action and channel that can encourage the target audiences.
Push Strategy                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
According to George E. Belch and Michael A. Belch, “Programs designed to persuade the trade to stock, merchandise, and promote a manufacturer’s products are part of a promotional Push Strategy.” The strategy aims to push the product through different distribution channels by belligerently selling and promoting the items to the trade.
Through push strategy, the promotion to the trade includes all the elements of the promotional mix. Push strategy always tries to encourage the resellers that they can make a profit on the manufacturer’s product and encourage them to order team merchandise and push it to their customers. Manufacturers may encounter resistance from channel members who are reluctant to accept on an additional line of products or labels.
Pull Strategy

In some cases, companies turn to a promotional pull strategy spending money on advertising and sales promotion efforts directed towards the ultimate customer. The pull strategy's objective is to generate consumer demand and motivate them to ask for the goods from the retailer. Seeing the customer demand, the retailers will order the product from wholesalers which in turn will appeal to the manufacturer.  Thus, stimulating demand at the end-user level pulls the product through the channels of distribution.
Choose Between Push and Pull

Whether the companies will emphasize push or pull strategy, depends on several factors, including the company’s relationship with the trade, its promotional budget, and demand for the organization’s product. Companies that have favourable channels may prefer to use push strategy and work closely with channels members to encourage them to stock and promote their products. An organization with a limited promotional budget may not have the funds for advertising and sales promotion that a pull strategy requires and find it most cost-effective to build distribution and demand by working closely with resellers. A pull strategy may be suitable when the demand perspective for a good or service is favourable since it has unique advantages, is supreme to competitive products, or is very popular among customers. Companies often use a combination of push and pull strategies, with the emphasis on changing as a product moves through its lifecycle.
