IIPM PUBLICATION
One
Consider this: Since Metro Now is a morning daily, it will compete against TOI and HT (that is with the offerings of its own promoters). “Not really,” however, says Rahul Kansal, Brand Director, TOI. “...new product develops new users rather than cutting out the already existing ones. Youngsters, who might not have been into newspapers at all, will now read Metro Now, an abridged version of detailed news.” The newspaper is being positioned as a fun paper and is said to be strategically placed against tabloids, Today and Mid-day.
Also, while one-time rivals create a new market, their rivalry is far from over! HT’s business paper, Mint is supposed to take the market leader Economic Times head on,
(from the TOI group). With two fresh products to savour, keep a watchful eye on the
duo’s crusade against each other and their joint fight with the others. India Today’s daily and DNA is coming to town too. It will only get hotter!
