ABOUT THE BOOK The ultimate objective of all production is consumption for the satisfaction of varied needs of man. A free market economy provides freedom to the consumers to buy and consume goods of their choice. Buying preferences of the consumers send signals to the producers to produce various commodities in required quantities. Producers, therefore, produces only those commodities which are desired by the consumers. Consumer behaviour is related to likes and dislikes and expectations of the consumers. Consumer behaviour has changed in recent years owing to enhanced awareness, information technology and more importantly governmental intervention through legislations. Thus, the manufacturers are more cautious in dealing with consumers of their respective products. The rural consumers in India account for about 73 percent of the total consumers. In recent years, the lifestyle of a large number of rural consumers in India has changed dramatically and the process of change is on. The buying behaviour of the rural consumers is influenced by several factors such as socio-economic conditions, cultural environment, literacy level, occupation, geographical location, efforts on the part of sellers, exposure to media etc. The consumer movement in India till now has been confined to the middle class citizens in urban areas. It has yet to spread among the masses in rural areas. This book is an effort to understand buying behaviour of rural masseswhich is influenced by a host of diverse factors. The work is useful to understand the Indian rural consumer psyche in order to formulate an appropriate marketing strategy.

Preface In the vast and diverse landscape of India, where traditions and modernity coexist harmoniously, lies an often overlooked yet crucial aspect of marketing—rural marketing. The heartbeat of rural India resonates with the rhythms of tradition, culture, and close-knit communities, creating a unique ecosystem that requires a distinct approach to marketing. This book delves deep into the realm of rural marketing in the Indian context, unraveling its intricacies, challenges, and immense potential. It is a comprehensive exploration of how marketing strategies must adapt and evolve to cater to the diverse needs, aspirations, and dynamics of rural consumers and markets. Rural India constitutes a substantial portion of the country's population, and its significance in the overall economic landscape cannot be underestimated. However, the intricacies of rural markets often pose challenges that differ vastly from urban counterparts. Factors such as limited infrastructure, cultural diversity, varying consumer behavior, and the interplay of traditional and modern influences require a nuanced understanding that conventional marketing theories do not always address. Through a combination of empirical research, case studies, and expert insights, this book endeavors to bridge the gap in understanding rural marketing dynamics. It equips marketers, entrepreneurs, academics, and policymakers with the knowledge necessary to navigate the complex world of rural markets successfully. From understanding the rural consumer psyche to tailoring product offerings, distribution channels, and communication strategies, each chapter offers valuable insights that can shape effective marketing campaigns and strategies. As we embark on this journey through the pages of this book, we invite readers to explore the challenges and opportunities that rural marketing presents. We will navigate the dusty bylanes, vibrant markets, and quaint villages to uncover the hidden gems of knowledge that hold the key to tapping into the immense potential that rural India holds. Along the way, we will discover that rural marketing is not just a business endeavor; it is a testament to the rich tapestry of traditions and aspirations that define the Indian rural landscape. We extend our gratitude to the experts, practitioners, and researchers who have contributed their valuable insights to this endeavor. Their collective wisdom serves as a guiding light for anyone seeking to understand and excel in the realm of rural marketing. As the journey begins, let us embrace the challenges, learn from the experiences, and emerge with a deeper appreciation for the power of effective rural marketing in shaping the future of India's economic and social fabric. Welcome to the world of rural marketing in the Indian context. Dr. Vijay Uprikar Author
