TARGET MARKET:

According to one of the representatives of Warid that Warid has divided its target market in to categories of A+, A-, B+, B-, C, D, E and FCATEGORIES: CHARACTERISTICS:
A+ & A- Age group of 28 to 32, 40+ and of upper-income level (Urban)
B+ & B- Age group of 22 to 27 and of lower-upper-income level (Urban)

Consumer level is provided in this report, while, industrial level has variable domain, settled according to no. of connections and on the nature of packages according to line rents e.t.c.Buying CharacteristicsWarid is very much selective and stresses on value added purchasesMarket PotentialCurrently market is on SATURATION POINT as for Urban areas concern and as for as Rural Areas concern there is great POTENTIAL. Warid is going to launch its products in Semi-Urbanand Rural Areas
Product PositioningAs Warid is new in the market of Pakistan and is still trying to make its position in the mind of customer better than existing big giant Mobilink.
Although Warid is new in market but it has acquired a good position as for as Zero line rent post-paid connections and low rate pre-paid connections.
In my point of view, as Warid launched its products in Pakistan with a MARKET PUSHER STRATEGY, while providing low rates, not only it has made its position better but also made other networks to reduce their prices.
According to BCG matrix Warid falls under STARS, which shows its low market share and high growth rate. BCG model is given below,
