    2. ORIGIN

    2.1 PEPSICO

    It was first introduced as "Brad's Drink" in New Bern, North Carolina in 1898 by Caleb

    Brad ham, which made it at his pharmacy where the drink was sold. It was later named

    Pepsi Cola, possibly due to the digestive enzyme pepsin and kola nuts used in the recipe.

    Brad ham sought to create a fountain drink that was delicious and would aid in digestion

    and boost energy.

    In 1903, Brad ham moved the bottling of Pepsi-Cola from his drugstore to a rented

    warehouse. That year, Brad ham sold 7,968 gallons of syrup. The next year, Pepsi was

    sold in six-ounce bottles, and sales increased to 19,848 gallons. In 1909, automobile race

    pioneer Barney Old-field was the first celebrity to endorse Pepsi-Cola, describing it as "A

    bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race". The advertising theme

    "Delicious and Healthful" was then used over the next two decades. In 1926, Pepsi

    received its first logo redesign since the original design of 1905. In 1929, the logo was

    changed again.

    15/70

    In 1931, at the depth of the Great Depression, the Pepsi-Cola Company entered

    bankruptcy - in large part due to financial losses incurred by speculating on wildly

    fluctuating sugar prices as a result of World War

    Assets were sold and Roy C. Megargel bought the Pepsi trademark. Eight years later, the

    company went bankrupt again. Pepsi's assets were then purchased by Charles Guth, thePresident of Loft Inc. Loft was a candy manufacturer with retail stores that contained

    soda fountains. He sought to replace Coca-Cola at his stores' fountains after Coke refused

    to give him a discount on syrup. Guth then had Loft's chemists reformulate the Pepsi-

    Cola syrup formula.

    On three separate occasions between 1922 and 1933, the Coca-Cola Company was

    offered the opportunity to purchase the Pepsi-Cola company and it declined on each

    occasion.

    Pepsi Logo

    Pepsi is one of the world's most famous brands much like its rival Coca Cola Pepsi Cola

    was originally called Brad's Drink after its creator, Caleb Brad ham, a pharmacist from

    North Carolina. Pepsi was a carbonated soft drink he created to serve his drugstore's

    customers. The new name, Pepsi-Cola, was first used on August 28. The Pepsi logo is a

    simple globe with the Pepsi colors in the background and the word Pepsi in the

    foreground. Pepsi has changed its logo and its slogans a number of times since its

    introduction in 1898. The Pepsi slogans through the years are listed below

    3.3 RESPONSIBLE MARKETING

    Teaching children sensible eating habits at an early age is a critical part of their up-

    bringing. As a major advertiser we need to do our part to help parents succeed in this

    task.

    Teaching children sensible eating habits at an early age is a critical part of their up-

    bringing. As a major advertiser we need to do our part to help parents succeed in thistask. Our approach has been to join a leading set of other food and beverage companies in

    agreeing to change what younger children are seeing advertised on TV and in other

    media, such as magazines and the Internet. Importantly, we are doing this in countries

    around the world where we do business today. Naturally, we cannot prevent children

    from seeing all of our advertising, but we can ensure that those media channels, which

    are most targeted at children, only carry advertisements for certain products. From

    PepsiCo's perspective, these are products that meet specific nutrition criteria intended to

    encourage the consumption of healthier foods and beverages. The policy covers our

    entire product portfolio and is subject to independent compliance monitoring by

    Accenture. Further details on our policy are outlined below.

    PepsiCo's Policy on Responsible Advertising & Marketing to Children

    PepsiCo has long been a promoter of responsible advertising to all consumers, shown for

    example through our adherence to the Consolidated ICC Code of Advertising and

    Marketing Communication Practice.

    We further acknowledge that children, as a potentially vulnerable group of consumers,

    deserve greater attention.

    PepsiCo has therefore joined a group of top global food and beverage manufacturers, in

    adopting a worldwide voluntary commitment to restrict our advertising and marketing to

    children only to those products which meet PepsiCo's Nutrition Criteria for Advertising

    to Children intended to encourage the consumption of healthier food and beverage

    products.

    PepsiCo's Nutrition Criteria for Advertising to Children

    This policy is currently being rolled out and will be fully implemented, at the latest, by

    the end of 2010. We will work with other industry players to ensure that monitoring and

    reporting processes are put in place to ensure and demonstrate continued compliance with

    this policy.

    Including Coca-Cola, General Mills, Grupo Bimbo, Kellogg's, Kraft, Mars, Nestle and

    Unilever

    2This commitment establishes a minimum standard for all PepsiCo product and brand

    advertising and marketing around the world. It is not intended to replace existing

    commitments and/or regulatory obligations.

    3Any paid third-party advertising or marketing channels which may be widely assumed to

    have an audience (print, TV, cinema, internet site, etc) which is comprised of a majority

    School Policy which will remain unchanged. While it is the schools which must

    ultimately decide which beverages should be available to students, and where and when

    they should be sold, we hope we can play a role in shaping an environment in schools

    which facilitates the healthy choices of school-age children everywhere.

    recruitment and selection of employable candidates and job seekers for an organization.

    Every enterprise, business, start-up and entrepreneurial firm has some well-defined

    the skills and qualities new employees need to have.

    requirements for new workers and professionals for outlined job positions and

    5.7 IMPORTANCE OF PSR

    46

  • 7/29/2019 135395497 Recruitment Selection Pepsico

    47/70

    A PSR are the sale persons, they involved in selling products of our company in return

    for money. It is an act of completion of a commercial activity.

    Its almost impossible for an entrepreneur to run a business without a sales strategy. This

    in turn requires somebody, not necessarily the entrepreneur, to have a talent for selling

    products and services to businesses or the general public.

    A sale is completed by the seller or the provider of the goods or services to an acquisition

    or appropriation or request followed by the passing of title (property or ownership) in the

    item and the application and due settlement of a price, the obligation for which arises due

    to the seller's requirement to pass ownership, being a price he is happy to part with

    ownership of or any claim upon the item. The purchaser, though a party to the sale, does

    not execute the sale, only the seller does that. To be precise the sale completes prior to

    the payment and gives rise to the obligation of payment. If the seller completes the first

    two above stages (consent and passing ownership) of the sale prior to settlement of the

    price, the sale is still valid and gives rise to an obligation to pay.

    Without such a person or team, a business will struggle to remain profitable. In fact, the

    success of a business plan is likely to depend on the expertise of sales staff

    Increasing sales and market share - it's perhaps the simplest reason for hiring a

    salesperson, but one of the most sensible. Once you have established there's a need for

    your product or service you need to maximize your possible revenue. A professional

    salesperson can help you do this

    A salesperson is therefore critical to a business. As well as improving sales revenue and

    increasing market share, the best salespeople take advantage of opportunities, and suggest

    new areas into which a business might successfully move.

    5.8 IDEAL PROFILE

    47

  • 7/29/2019 135395497 Recruitment Selection Pepsico

    48/70

    The PSRs are the frontline people who will directly contact the customers. The minimum

    qualification they have to maintain is intermediate and he should be needy person. The

    young people will suit more to this profile rather than the older one. They will be energetic,

    with fresh blood and can work harder.

    PSRs should be familiar with both national and local languages i.e., for an hyderabadi

    candidate it is Hindi and Telugu. Since hyderabad is the place where we find many

    different cultured people, hence national language helps them to maintain the

    communication with the customer.

    This profile emphasis mostly on Hindi and Telugu rather than English and the candidates

    should be as tough handed since they have to work under sun and even late nights in the

    season time specially, unless they are hard workers they cant stick to the job. So they have

    to work hard at all times.

    If the candidate is an experienced person it will be easy to both candidate and CE to handle

    the things. Since an experienced person holds more knowledge compared to a fresher

    which saves time and money in turn. It even makes the job easy to perform.

    8. SUGGESTIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS:

    Recruitment agencies can still find it difficult to obtain specialist salespeople.

    Consequently, an entrepreneur may opt to place advertisements in trade

    magazines, newspapers, and on the Internet.

    The drawback to such ads is the possibility of receiving a pile of time-

    consuming and unsuitable applications. To help avoid this, an entrepreneur

    should word an ad carefully, and use a specific description of the sales vacancy.

    A copywriter or an ad agency can assist.

    In order to control the attrition rate the company should provide Training &

    Development sessions at regular intervals

    Motivational programs should be conducted in order to extract the maximum

    output from the employees.

    The compensation plan should be adequate for the employees as it is the most

    motivating factor for the employees to perform better.

    An effective performance appraisal system is necessary to assess the employee

    performance for a particular period of time.
