products havebeen circulated, PT Redceri Indonesia
gives added value of this new product. Competition
entered quite large, the company tried to do a
marketing strategy planning to sell this product so
that the community or consumer can accept it.
4 MARKETING STRATEGIES
A description of the marketing strategy planning and
marketing mix PT Redceri Indonesia refers to the
organizational planning framework as follows:
Figure 1. Three Levels of Organizational Planning
(William J. Stanton, Fundamentals of Marketing, 10th
Edition)
In the company marketing plan includes 5 (five)
stages of the process,i.e. as follows:
Conduct a situation analysis.
Develop marketing objectives.
Choosing a target market and measuring
market needs.
Determining the position (Positioning).
Designing a marketing mix strategy.
4.1 Conduct a Situation Analysis
Situation analysis is conducted by the company to
understand the marketing environment towards the
products offered. The marketing environment
consists of fruit combining business people and
outside marketing forces that can influence
marketing management's ability to develop and
sustain successful transactions with its targeted
customers.
The intensity of rivalry, not only PT Redceri
Indonesia which produces food or beverage types of
fruit combining in packaging to customers in
Indonesia. Based on the analysis of strategic groups,
there are currently 3 (three) fruit combining
manufacturers who areselling their products in
Indonesia such as Tarami Corporation Japan, Tutto
Company Ltd. Korea, and Sun Moon Food
Company Ltd. Singapore. Refers to the analysis that
makes them a major threat to PT Redceri Indonesia's
market segment. Some of the strategies that the
company performed to win the competition and
surviveis to determine how to improve the quality of
products that produced, taste, and service to
consumers well by trying new ways and new
product innovations that increasingly more to attract
customers. Also, the company pricing strategy by
pressing product prices through the utilization of
distribution cost increment issued by the competitors
to attract as many consumers in the market without
lowering the quality of the product.
Currently, many local producers who only focus on
producing jelly potentially become a competitor for
PT Redceri Indonesia. However, this does not
necessarily make jelly producers easily enter the
fruit combining industry because it will get much
difficulty in entering the market, especially the
problem of processing technology.
The availability of many substitute products will
limit the flexibility of players in the industry to
determine the selling price of the product. The
substitute product will be one of the threats to the
products offered by the company such as fruit
yoghurt, fruit juice, and candied fruit.
Market growth, the growth of per capita fruit
consumption value in Indonesia each year has
increased by 14.85%. In 2016, the projected value of
money circulating in the community for fruit
consumption reaches more than 74 trillion Rupiah.
As illustrated in the following table:
Table 1. Projected Expenditure Increasing per Capita
Consumption of FruitYear 2015 2020
Processed from the results of the National
Socioeconomic Survey (Susenas)

This is a great potential in the utilization of fruits
offered to the community in different forms. With

such growth value and with the abundant supply of
fruit and not yet utilized, is an opportunity for
companies to run this business.
The fruit combining industry has an important role
in the national food industry, especially in fulfilling
the fruit demand, especially the need for vitamins.
The percentage of fruit as a source of the vitamin is
4.26% of all common food ingredients consumed.
The level of consumption of fruit is very large, this
is a potential market for PT Redceri Indonesia. The
availability of fruit combining is still limited because
the existing producers are still limited from abroad
or imported products. Also, the public difficulty in
finding fruit combining that can assure the quality,
halal and affordable prices. Fruit combining that
existing today is still quite expensive and has a taste
that is less suitable for the people of Indonesia.
Market access, the company as effectively as
possible managing access strategy enters the market
for the success of the company's overall business
model. Applying the right market access strategy is
supported by the specific tools needed to manage the
sales network in the company's distribution system.
Also, the success rate of entry into the market really
depends on the competitive advantage of the fruit
combining products offered by the company.
In the early stages of production, PT Redceri
Indonesia entered the market through two ways of
marketing, namely indirect sales and direct sales.
Indirect sales, the company sell the products through
food and beverage distributors, while the direct sales
through cooperation with Indomaret retailers or
hospitals.
4.2 Develop Marketing Objectives
Determination of the marketing objectives to be
achieved by the company must be in harmony with
the vision, mission and strategy that the company
sets and must be able to translate the strategy and
goals of the company's organization. The first
objective is within the next five years to become a
market leader in the food and beverage industry that
creates natural products in the marketing areas of
Jakarta and Banten, has a strong distribution channel
and builds strong brand awareness, and reaches
15.52% Return of Investment in the first year (Y-1)
of the total sales revenue and change the salary
payment system of all sales marketing employees
from salary compensation base to sales commission
base, it aims to motivate the increase of selling rate
of products offered.
4.3 Market Segmentation
Market segmentation and market diversity are two
interrelated concepts. Without a diverse market of
people with different backgrounds, countries of
origin, interests, needs, and desires, there is little
reason to market segmentation.
Before the acceptance of the broad marketing
concept, the common way to do business with
consumers is through mass marketing, which is the
same product offering or marketing mix to everyone.
Market segmentation follows as a more logical way
to meet consumer needs.
Figure 2. Market Segmentation Steps
(Source: William J. Stanton, Fundamentals of
Marketing, 10th Edition)
Market segment, buyers have unique needs and
desires, potentially, each buyer is a separate market.
To that end, the company determines the market
segment based on income groups and age groups.
In the group of earnings, the company takes the
market segment for groups of people with middle
income upwards. As for the age group the company
sets the market segment for the age group of 5 (five)
to 49 (forty-nine) years. The variable determination
of market segments of the company can be classified
as follows:
Table 2. VariableDetermination of Market Segments
Geographical segmentation, in the early stages of
marketing the company, set the market share in the
Jakarta and Banten areas. With the population
growth rate in the region reaching 2.1% per year.
Also, the company determines the effect of climate
on its marketing mechanism. Based on market

behavior, for food and beverage products with the
content of fruit or juice will increase demand during
the dry season and tend to decline during the rainy
season.
Demographic segmentation, on this assignment the
company offers its products for the 5-49 years age
segment, because the products offered are designed
to suit the particular needs of a particular age
segment. Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly products use
native fruit instead of fruit juice,so it is not suitable
for under 5 years old who have not been able to
chew. Also, this product also uses pure sugar that is
not suitable for the segmented market age over 49
years related health issues about excess sugar
consumption that causes diabetes. Also, the
company does not include or specific designation of
segmentation based on gender, educational level and
family size. This is because Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly
products offer general products with the benefit of
consuming fruit and fiber consumption.
Psychographic segmentation, people's purchasing
power dependence still has a strong influence in
preference to the desire to buy a product. To that
end, the company sets its market segment for upper-
middle-class social class by building traits that can
attract the interest of the class society such as
strengthening brand awareness in the form of
packaging or display and the quality of class
products. When compared with the original fruit, the
culture of the people in consuming fruit combining
fruit is still not popular. However, with the modern
lifestyle changes that want practicality, there is a
special market segment that is large enough to work
on. This is evident from the number of fruit
consumption from year to year increased and
reached the number of tens of tons. The specific
market segment in question is the market segment
that does have a passion and taste to consume fruit
with more practical and easy to get (Customer
Familiarity). Also, the attraction of people to the
goods is influenced by lifestyle and the goods can
express the lifestyle. Companies are trying to
improve market segmentation based on consumer
lifestyles as well as certain community groups.
Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly is positioned as the ideal
food product for healthy, natural, halal and active or
mobile lifestyle. Finally, PT Redceri Indonesia is
targeting achievers as a marketing appeal of its
products.
Segmentation of behavior, consumers, can be
grouped according to knowledge, attitude, use, and
response to a product. Of the trusted behavior
variables are the best starting point for building
specific market segments. Indonesian people have a
habit of consuming fruit only at lunch, for that
company needs to build a brand image that the
product offered can be consumed throughout the
day. Also, the company uses the benefit
segmentation to position the Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly
product as halal, healthy and economical. This is
useful for building consumer awareness of healthy
living as well as enthusiasm and positive responses
to the products that the company has to offer.
Target market, based on market segmentation that
has been done, the company set the main target
market is age group of 10-29 years with middle
social class and above. This is set to simplify the
marketing communication pattern of Redceri Fruit
Jelly products at an early stage. The target setting is
described as in the table as follows:
Table 3. Target MarketRegion DKI Jakarta-Banten
(in thousands)
Processed from BPS data in 2014
From table 3, the age group of 10-29 years (yellow
mark) reached 62.36% of the total market segment
5-49 years age group with middle and upper social
class. Companies in the early stages of using an
undifferentiated marketing strategy with one offer to
enter the market. Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly's product
offerings will focus on the general needs of
consumers, not to differentiate. This is done by the
company at an early stage to make cost savings such
as similar product lines keeping production,
inventory and transportation costs low.
However, the company will keep in mind the
product lifecycle stage, for which the company
strengthens the Research and Development Division
to conduct market research and product development
based on the segmentation that has been done.
Currently, competitors in the market still use all-
around marketing.

4.4 Determining the Position
(Positioning)
Positioning is an action in shaping the image in the
minds of consumers (Kotler, 2006). In the
positioning statement there should be a formula
established on: Target Segment - an explanation of
the segment targeted by the company, Brand Name -
the name of the product offered, Frame of
Reference. The product category offered, Point of
Differentiation - the uniqueness of the offered
product compared to Products of the same category,
and Reason to Believe - evidence to reinforce the
uniqueness of the product offered (Tybout &
Calkins, 2005).
Based on it, the company tries to shape the product
image with product Tagline for Redceri Pure Fruit
Jelly's is 'Your Pure Fruit Jellycious', while its
Positioning Statement is ‘Untuk masyarakat
Indonesia yang sehat, Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly
adalah fruit combining kombinasi jelly dengan buah-
buahan segar sebagai asupan vitamin yang halal,
praktis dan rasa yang berbeda karena hanya Redceri
Pure Fruit Jelly produk dalam negeri yang di proses
secara higienis dan modern'. Positioning this
statement is formed on:
Target Segment : Healthy Indonesian.
Brand Name : Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly
The frame of Reference : Fruit Combining combination of
jelly and fresh fruits
Point of Differentiation : As a halal vitamin intake,
practical and different flavors.
Reason to Believe : Hygienic and modern processed
domestic products.
Figure 3. Positioning Statement
4.5 Designing a Marketing Mix
Strategy
The marketing mix is a marketing strategy used by a
company to market Redceri Pure Fruit Jelly
products. As for the marketing of its products, the
company establishes two marketing mechanisms
namely direct sales through cooperation with
retailers or hospitals with the concept of business to
customer (B2C) and sales through cooperation with
distributors with the concept of business to business

combining to such parties, the company notices
several things such as product - hygienic and gives
clear benefits and prices - as a substitute product no
higher price of substituted goods.

cooperation with retailers or hospitals or B2C
