Positioning Marketing Mix
Target customer, Target application, Target complication Patients above 40 with cataract indications Process to eliminate those needing a bed pre or post surgery
What are these patients doing now : current competitors Eye surgeons operate in nursing homes and general hospitals
What is our marketing insight ? Cataract removal is needed by most of the aged people 85% cataract patients do not need pre /post operative care A surgical facility designed “only for cataract operation” can be
designed very efficiently and cost can come down dramatically which can be passed on to the customers.
What is our offer ? How better than the above competitors ? Cataract operations done by “Best doctors “ at only “60% of prevailing
price” and “same day discharge” from the hospital
Positioning Marketing Mix
Limited Range & Attractive Pricing Only cataract operations on patients with no pre/post complications Our Price : Rs 10000 / pax vis-à-vis Competition Rs 15000 – 20000 2 standard processes : with external glasses and with implanted lens
Service scape No bed in the hospital except 1 for emergency 3 operating theatres of 4 beds each
4 beds are in the “active” operation theater where the surgeons are active 4 beds are in the “preparatory” operation theater where trainee doctors brief the
patients , check them and administer local anesthesia4 beds are in the “recovery” room where checking and briefing is done and
prescriptions are written and discharge cards are made Large and comfortable general waiting lounge. For post-operation patients there is a resting lounge for sitting Periodic buses are available from Dadar railway station
