SALESMAN RAMLAL
I experienced another facet of corporate life today. Ploughed the fallow furrows of the dusty by-lanes of Saharanpur with the Dealer Salesman of the Wholsale Distributor. All this frenzy is a by-product of my Marketing Induction on the field, to enhance the preparedness ( and perhaps minimise damage ) when I begin my new assignment in Bombay.
It was a sweltering day, made all the more arduous by trudging about 8 kms. on foot, and made my work-related woes fade into oblivion--Boy, do I have it easy or what !! It also exposed me to the vulnerability of the market-leader hegemony that I am so ensconced with, in ITC.
More about this later.
