Dear Vinod,

 

Good evening.  I am agree with you on your five point strategy, but in addition to that data should be well analysis to get more insights about strong point and weak points. For example,

 

1.       Understand market trend and where is company's market share.

 

2.       Where are the issues, Is it in sales process or product or customer satisfaction etc.?

 

3.       Marketing campaign should be run as some market as pilot study and analysis those to see which will be successful in near future.

 

If you have any disagreement to my opinion. Please do let me know it will be welcome. Have a pleasant evening.
