successfully completed at Dynamic Dream Tradelink Pvt. Ltd. under the Marketing
Division from 21/02/2014 to 21/04/2014 as a requirement of my undergraduate BBA

corporate world setting, every period spent in the Marketing Department gave me

after the various marketing strategies and market information necessary to make

16
DDT Pvt. Ltd., as a growing firm in the country accepts the challenge to achieve
greater heights and cross farther distances in its endeavors and stand out as a strong
organization in Nepal.
2.1.1. Mission and Objectives of the Company
a) Mission
 To enrich the lifestyles and hygiene of the people all over the nation through
the consistent distribution of Himalayas’ ONTOP and build the brand name of
the company.
b) Objectives
The major objective of Dynamic Dream Tradelink Pvt. Ltd. is to ensure the
delivery of pristine and naturally rich spring water from the glaciers of
Langtang to all the clients of Himalayas Spring Water Pvt. Ltd. in Nepal.
2.1.2. Organizational Strategies
After the high level of testing inside the factory, Himalayas’ ONTOP is introduced in
the market. It is glacier spring bottled drinking water to be certified with the Food
Safety Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system and tested and passed
by USA and Japan Food Quality Department.
ONTOP uses the highly advanced and updated technological machineries for its
processing. The water passes through the upgraded machines from Italy for filling and
packing while Japan's machine does the task of bottling. Four steps of filtration are
done by the use of good quality micro filters up to 0.2 micron and UV sterilization
neutralizes all the bacteria for the complete purity. (Our Company, 2008)
The amazingly low TDS value of 16 which is rare to find all across the world makes
this premium water suitable to make most expensive tea, coffee, and other drinks to
enhance the taste. It is also suitable for making expensive cosmetic products and can
be used for new born children. Likewise the non-Reverse Osmosis process used in
Himalayas' ONTOP helps preserve the original taste of Himalaya's glacier water with
all the minerals. (Disbursement Agent for Himalayas’ ONTOP, 2014)
17
Water carries many invisible substances: minerals, oxygen, and nutrients which lacks
in water undergone through Reverse Osmosis. A recent World Health Organization
study concluded that Himalayas’ ONTOP must contain some trace of minerals to
endorse good health, one of the unseen threats that reverse osmosis systems will
neglect to perform.
Himalayas’ ONTOP is enriched with nutrients like calcium, magnesium, fluoride,
sodium, chloride, potassium, nitrogen with PH value of 6.68.
Himalayas’ ONTOP has been certified by ‘finewaters.com’ as the Best Drinking
Water in the World and also awarded the ‘Best Designed Bottle’ by Pentawards,
France (Our Company, 2008)
2.1.3. Major Products of the Company
Himalayas' ONTOP is overwhelmed to come up with the water as the first initiation
brought from one of the highest spring water sources in the world. Assured purity is
the synonym for Himalayas' ONTOP. It is the natural spring water, privilege of the
premium group. The main motive of Himalayas Spring Water is to deliver the genuine
essence of naturally rich spring water which is further processed through completely
automated bottling system.

Part Three
REPORTING ON MAJOR ASSIGNMENTS UNDERTAKEN
3.1. Analyze Marketing Strategies of the Company
My first task was to understand the various marketing strategies followed by the
company. I was given internal files and reports regarding this matter. I learnt that the
marketing strategy used was direct selling and target marketing. The motive here was
to understand how the marketing activities of DDT Pvt. Ltd. are operated and to
understand the impact of effective marketing in the industry.
The company has been operating with success since the past two years and has gained
a large number of clients for its distribution of Himalayas’ ONTOP. The customers
highly favor the consumption of Himalayas’ ONTOP for it was one of the most
hygienic drinking waters available in Nepal with HACCP. With this advantage, the
market penetration was quite favorable and the company was able to reach out with its
product to the targeted customers through its clients i.e. the retailers.
As suggested by the Head Company, Himalayas Spring Water Pvt. Ltd., DDT Pvt.
Ltd. used the geographical segmentation and segmented the market to apply necessary
strategies as required. Similarly along with this, the company used target marketing to
position its product to the high end clients. The company’s customers for Himalayas’
ONTOP are:
 Restaurants and Bars, Marts
 Star Hotels
 Financial Institutions
 National and International Organizations
 Banks, Embassies
 Private Hospitals
 International Schools
The above mentioned categories are the only clients through which the Himalayas’
ONTOP is being used for resale and distribution purposes. Through these clients and
mediums, the water is being efficiently and effectively distributed.
21
DDT Pvt. Ltd. came to notice through several interactions with the clients that the
reason for the preference of Himalayas’ ONTOP was because of its desire among the
customer and high profit margin. Since, restaurants and bars charge its retailed
product prices above the MRP, the retailers have an opportunity to sell the product
with great margin including VAT and Service Charges. Even with the prices being
charged very high, the customers do not hesitate in consuming it, since the quality
being offered in Himalayas’ ONTOP has no other easily available alternative; with
this the high profile customers mostly demand Himalayas’ ONTOP in the high end
restaurants and bars. Through this market information, the company approached the
prospecting clients for the purpose of resale and association.
3.2. Analyze and Evaluate the Clients and the Market Share
The task given to me was to analyze the information of various clients of the company
and make necessary evaluations accordingly. Every client was to be evaluated on the
basis of its quantity of orders and the payment consistency.
The clients were evaluated from the viewpoint of sales. The clients were placed in
four categories: Category A, Category B, Category C and Category D. Each category
was segmented on the basis of the number of weekly orders and the payment
schedules. The company has clients who have number of orders paid regularly or
irregularly. With this criterion in hand, the client is either deemed to be critical or
normal.
The table below mentions the requirement for the clients to be divided into different
categories as per the necessary orders:
22
Table 2: Requirement Orders of Himalayas’ ONTOP
Requirement No. of orders
Requirement for orders to be classified as maximum: Above 50 cases per month.
Requirement for orders to be classified as average: From 5 to 50 cases per month.

3.3. Develop a Marketing Campaign for the Company

months marketing campaign in Kathmandu for the budget of Rs. 10,00,000. I
prepared it with my past experience and theories of marketing studies.

3.3. Make an Operational Plan of Clients and Customer
Relationship
One major part of my internship was to develop a plan to prepare an operational
outline on how the customers should be provided value through the products. The
company had primarily been focusing on the target market and the major focus was
on the high end clients only. However, it was later realized that it was lacking in
maintaining customer relationship. Similarly, the company made efforts to generate
strategies and tactics to maintain the client and customer relationship.
The clients were in favor of the resale of Himalayas’ ONTOP only due to the
presence of high profit margins as mentioned above. However, the clients were not
aware of the premium level quality and features of the water being involved. Due to
this fact, the company had to send this message through the communication channels.
Along with this, no other efforts had been made to strengthen the relationship between
the company and its clients or the customers. Thus, the need for client and customer
relationship was highly at demand.
For this I initiated the need of gaining the accurate perception and attitude of the
clients and customers of the Himalayas’ ONTOP. The plan of action which was
forwarded was to conduct a survey to get all the responses. Through the administered
questionnaire all the feedbacks would be gathered. The survey needed to be
conducted on a self-administered basis and this needed to be conducted with due
conscience.
3.4. Other Duties and Responsibilities
Apart from the duties mentioned above I assisted the supervisor in preparation of
marketing reports. For this purpose I was asked to conduct interviews with the DDT
Pvt. Ltd. employees. Other works where I got involved, was the routine office
activities involving a lot of interaction with the employees. I was frequently involved
in brainstorming ideas relating to new marketing strategies and concepts. I was
actively involved in generating necessary ideas regarding the development of the
products.
26
Part Four
REFLECTION OF INTERNSHIP
The experience of working as an intern at DDT Pvt. Ltd. was fascinating and the
experience is sufficient to build me as I advance into my career. This report has been
prepared in order to establish the events that took place in DDT Pvt. Ltd. as I worked
as an intern in the marketing division. It is a reflection showing the experiences
during the period. This section is divided into three parts and begins with a self-
reflection, career outlook and the over view of the organization as seen from the
inside.
Working in the trading concern enabled me to understand various interpersonal skills
required for marketing and sales aspect through distribution channels. The primary
thing I realized was that communication is frequently an essential feature to
accomplishment. It is also essential for an individual to have the skill of multi-tasking
throughout the operational hours. This would make one flexible in the work place.
Similarly, I also understood that it is important to maintain punctuality in order to be
successful. Other keys to success demands that an individual has to have a proficient
attitude in order to fit in the competitive market. At the same time, one must have the
capability to network with individuals in the field of one’s occupation.
It is essential for individuals to be involved in internship programs in order to be in a
position of understanding the important aspect of the work. In the study of business
management, individuals are usually encouraged to associate with other individuals so
that they would be in a place of gaining knowledge in the field. It is for this purpose
that I made efforts for an internship position as an Assistant Marketing Officer in
DDT Pvt. Ltd. Through this platform I was able to build the gap between the practical
and theoretical understanding. Throughout this internship tenure, I was fortunate to
undergo three important stages in my experience. The stages include orientation into
the marketing and sales channels of a distribution system, applying the various
concepts of marketing strategies, and understanding the value of intermediaries in the
supply chain management.
Throughout the internship period, I had to initiate my objectives as I worked. The first
objective was to attain the knowledge on the manner in which the DDT Pvt. Ltd.
27
worked and carried out its practices. The other objective was to have adverse
knowledge in the marketing field. In order to have a precise picture of the nature of
the work I was assigned, I used various approaches. The primary approach included
direct conversation with the various department representatives and the clients.
Moreover, I had the opportunity of observing the heads of different divisions
responding to issues, which affected their divisions directly.
The academic objectives of this program can also be considered under this
section. Technically, the objective of the program was to complete and fulfill
the KU undergraduate program requirements which required all students to
complete 4-6 week internship program. However, beyond this straight forward
objective, unmentioned objectives were to be able to apply and test the
academic gains, or the theoretical knowledge, that I have made in the past seven
semesters. Furthermore, the opportunity to work in a trading concern was not
allowed to pass by since as an undergraduate of marketing specialization, the
opportunity came with substantial benefits academically. I am very delighted at
this fact and believe this contribution to the organization will help me in my
future encounters with such organizations, or any other related fields. The internship
programs importance can thus be highlighted from this final section of the report, as
to how essential it could be to undergo such a program. I can proudly state that they
have achieved more confidence from this 8 weeks internship program than I was
receiving during entire year sessions of the undergraduate program. I feel more
certain of my future paths now that I have gained experience, and for this I give
credit to the internship program.

  • 17. 16 DDT Pvt. Ltd., as a growing firm in the country accepts the challenge to achieve greater heights and cross farther distances in its endeavors and stand out as a strong organization in Nepal. 2.1.1. Mission and Objectives of the Company a) Mission  To enrich the lifestyles and hygiene of the people all over the nation through the consistent distribution of Himalayas’ ONTOP and build the brand name of the company. b) Objectives The major objective of Dynamic Dream Tradelink Pvt.

Organizational Strategies After the high level of testing inside the factory, Himalayas’ ONTOP is introduced in the market. It is glacier spring bottled drinking water to be certified with the Food Safety Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system and tested and passed by USA and Japan Food Quality Department. ONTOP uses the highly advanced and updated technological machineries for its processing. The water passes through the upgraded machines from Italy for filling and packing while Japan's machine does the task of bottling. Four steps of filtration are done by the use of good quality micro filters up to 0.2 micron and UV sterilization neutralizes all the bacteria for the complete purity. (Our Company, 2008) The amazingly low TDS value of 16 which is rare to find all across the world makes this premium water suitable to make most expensive tea, coffee, and other drinks to enhance the taste. It is also suitable for making expensive cosmetic products and can be used for new born children. Likewise the non-Reverse Osmosis process used in Himalayas' ONTOP helps preserve the original taste of Himalaya's glacier water with all the minerals. (Disbursement Agent for Himalayas’ ONTOP, 2014)
  • 18. 17 Water carries many invisible substances: minerals, oxygen, and nutrients which lacks in water undergone through Reverse Osmosis. A recent World Health Organization study concluded that Himalayas’ ONTOP must contain some trace of minerals to endorse good health, one of the unseen threats that reverse osmosis systems will neglect to perform. Himalayas’ ONTOP is enriched with nutrients like calcium, magnesium, fluoride, sodium, chloride, potassium, nitrogen with PH value of 6.68. Himalayas’ ONTOP has been certified by ‘finewaters.com’ as the Best Drinking Water in the World and also awarded the ‘Best Designed Bottle’ by Pentawards, France (Our Company, 2008) 2.1.3.

  • 21. 20 Part Three REPORTING ON MAJOR ASSIGNMENTS UNDERTAKEN 3.1. Analyze Marketing Strategies of the Company My first task was to understand the various marketing strategies followed by the company. I was given internal files and reports regarding this matter. I learnt that the marketing strategy used was direct selling and target marketing. The motive here was to understand how the marketing activities of DDT Pvt. Ltd. are operated and to understand the impact of effective marketing in the industry. The company has been operating with success since the past two years and has gained a large number of clients for its distribution of Himalayas’ ONTOP. The customers highly favor the consumption of Himalayas’ ONTOP for it was one of the most hygienic drinking waters available in Nepal with HACCP. With this advantage, the market penetration was quite favorable and the company was able to reach out with its product to the targeted customers through its clients i.e. the retailers. As suggested by the Head Company, Himalayas Spring Water Pvt. Ltd., DDT Pvt. Ltd. used the geographical segmentation and segmented the market to apply necessary strategies as required. Similarly along with this, the company used target marketing to position its product to the high end clients. The company’s customers for Himalayas’ ONTOP are:  Restaurants and Bars, Marts  Star Hotels  Financial Institutions  National and International Organizations  Banks, Embassies  Private Hospitals  International Schools The above mentioned categories are the only clients through which the Himalayas’ ONTOP is being used for resale and distribution purposes. Through these clients and mediums, the water is being efficiently and effectively distributed.
  • 22. 21 DDT Pvt. Ltd. came to notice through several interactions with the clients that the reason for the preference of Himalayas’ ONTOP was because of its desire among the customer and high profit margin. Since, restaurants and bars charge its retailed product prices above the MRP, the retailers have an opportunity to sell the product with great margin including VAT and Service Charges. Even with the prices being charged very high, the customers do not hesitate in consuming it, since the quality being offered in Himalayas’ ONTOP has no other easily available alternative; with this the high profile customers mostly demand Himalayas’ ONTOP in the high end restaurants and bars. Through this market information, the company approached the prospecting clients for the purpose of resale and association. 3.2. Analyze and Evaluate the Clients and the Market Share The task given to me was to analyze the information of various clients of the company and make necessary evaluations accordingly. Every client was to be evaluated on the basis of its quantity of orders and the payment consistency. The clients were evaluated from the viewpoint of sales. The clients were placed in four categories: Category A, Category B, Category C and Category D. Each category was segmented on the basis of the number of weekly orders and the payment schedules. The company has clients who have number of orders paid regularly or irregularly. With this criterion in hand, the client is either deemed to be critical or normal. The table below mentions the requirement for the clients to be divided into different categories as per the necessary orders:
  • 23. 22 Table 2: Requirement Orders of Himalayas’ ONTOP Requirement No. of orders Requirement for orders to be classified as maximum: Above 50 cases per month. Requirement for orders to be classified as average: From 5 to 50 cases per month. Requirement for orders to be classified as minimum: At least 5 cases per month.

  • 25. 24 3.3. Develop a Marketing Campaign for the Company In the second month of the internship period, I was required to prepare a tentative six months marketing campaign in Kathmandu for the budget of Rs. 10,00,000. I prepared it with my past experience and theories of marketing studies. Table 4: Phase Wise Marketing Campaign Phase Duration Activities Tentative Budget Allocated I First month- Second month  Facebook Promotion  Customer Feedback Events  Client Feedback Rs. 20,000 Rs. 100,000 Rs. 30,000 II Second month to fourth month  Free stock for conferences and meetings  Association with high level companies and corporate bodies Rs. 200000 III Second month to fifth month  Run charity events  Organize social/community welfare programs Rs.50,000 IV Third month  Client meet  Distribution of T-shirt and Freebies Rs. 2,00,000 V Fifth month to sixth month  Run television and newspaper advertisements Rs.2,00,000 VI Sixth Month  Organize a big event or sponsor in a big event. Rs. 2,00,000
  • 26. 25 3.3. Make an Operational Plan of Clients and Customer Relationship One major part of my internship was to develop a plan to prepare an operational outline on how the customers should be provided value through the products. The company had primarily been focusing on the target market and the major focus was on the high end clients only. However, it was later realized that it was lacking in maintaining customer relationship. Similarly, the company made efforts to generate strategies and tactics to maintain the client and customer relationship. The clients were in favor of the resale of Himalayas’ ONTOP only due to the presence of high profit margins as mentioned above. However, the clients were not aware of the premium level quality and features of the water being involved. Due to this fact, the company had to send this message through the communication channels. Along with this, no other efforts had been made to strengthen the relationship between the company and its clients or the customers. Thus, the need for client and customer relationship was highly at demand. For this I initiated the need of gaining the accurate perception and attitude of the clients and customers of the Himalayas’ ONTOP. The plan of action which was forwarded was to conduct a survey to get all the responses. Through the administered questionnaire all the feedbacks would be gathered. The survey needed to be conducted on a self-administered basis and this needed to be conducted with due conscience. 3.4. Other Duties and Responsibilities Apart from the duties mentioned above I assisted the supervisor in preparation of marketing reports. For this purpose I was asked to conduct interviews with the DDT Pvt. Ltd. employees. Other works where I got involved, was the routine office activities involving a lot of interaction with the employees. I was frequently involved in brainstorming ideas relating to new marketing strategies and concepts. I was actively involved in generating necessary ideas regarding the development of the products.
  • 27. 26 Part Four REFLECTION OF INTERNSHIP The experience of working as an intern at DDT Pvt. Ltd. was fascinating and the experience is sufficient to build me as I advance into my career. This report has been prepared in order to establish the events that took place in DDT Pvt. Ltd. as I worked as an intern in the marketing division. It is a reflection showing the experiences during the period. This section is divided into three parts and begins with a self- reflection, career outlook and the over view of the organization as seen from the inside. Working in the trading concern enabled me to understand various interpersonal skills required for marketing and sales aspect through distribution channels. The primary thing I realized was that communication is frequently an essential feature to accomplishment. It is also essential for an individual to have the skill of multi-tasking throughout the operational hours. This would make one flexible in the work place. Similarly, I also understood that it is important to maintain punctuality in order to be successful. Other keys to success demands that an individual has to have a proficient attitude in order to fit in the competitive market. At the same time, one must have the capability to network with individuals in the field of one’s occupation. It is essential for individuals to be involved in internship programs in order to be in a position of understanding the important aspect of the work. In the study of business management, individuals are usually encouraged to associate with other individuals so that they would be in a place of gaining knowledge in the field. It is for this purpose that I made efforts for an internship position as an Assistant Marketing Officer in DDT Pvt. Ltd. Through this platform I was able to build the gap between the practical and theoretical understanding. Throughout this internship tenure, I was fortunate to undergo three important stages in my experience. The stages include orientation into the marketing and sales channels of a distribution system, applying the various concepts of marketing strategies, and understanding the value of intermediaries in the supply chain management. Throughout the internship period, I had to initiate my objectives as I worked. The first objective was to attain the knowledge on the manner in which the DDT Pvt. Ltd.
  • 28. 27 worked and carried out its practices. The other objective was to have adverse knowledge in the marketing field. In order to have a precise picture of the nature of the work I was assigned, I used various approaches. The primary approach included direct conversation with the various department representatives and the clients. Moreover, I had the opportunity of observing the heads of different divisions responding to issues, which affected their divisions directly. The academic objectives of this program can also be considered under this section. Technically, the objective of the program was to complete and fulfill the KU undergraduate program requirements which required all students to complete 4-6 week internship program. However, beyond this straight forward objective, unmentioned objectives were to be able to apply and test the academic gains, or the theoretical knowledge, that I have made in the past seven semesters. Furthermore, the opportunity to work in a trading concern was not allowed to pass by since as an undergraduate of marketing specialization, the opportunity came with substantial benefits academically. I am very delighted at this fact and believe this contribution to the organization will help me in my future encounters with such organizations, or any other related fields. The internship programs importance can thus be highlighted from this final section of the report, as to how essential it could be to undergo such a program. I can proudly state that they have achieved more confidence from this 8 weeks internship program than I was receiving during entire year sessions of the undergraduate program. I feel more certain of my future paths now that I have gained experience, and for this I give credit to the internship program.
