- 27. CONCLUSION The failure of Tata Nano present with a great lesson for all the marketers the car was positioned as a symbol of social liberty and equality. It was positioned as dream car of common man of India. It was targeting the laymen who want to have a car and it got successful to some extent but only till a functional level. The Nano made sense in terms of a social mission, on a purely functional level. Good quality engineering focused on the task of making something reliable and safe as cheap as possible. Sell it to people with not much money. But it has been criticized all around as the one to the greatest positioning blunder as even the most cost effective producers do not label their products as cheap. Here the cheap has a great social connotation and the social tag because nobody aspires to buy the cheapest thing on the market, and driving around in a car is as big a statement as you get to make. Human psychology is that the motivation behind buying isn't to have a car, or a shampoo, or whatever the product is. If a product is positioned as poor‘s product then poor people will definitely avoid it because they don‘t want to be viewed as poor yet. The marketer just need to place their product right in the minds of customer and the brands like Armani, Raymond‘s, Toyota and even other brands of Tata are examples of that. So positioning remains the main mantra behind the success of any product.
