Marketing management One can legitimately claim that an IPL is the best example to learn the marketing as it has not left a single mod of promoting and positioning the service product for cricket fans. Cricket is a religion in India and IPL is a Prasad to Indian cricket worshipers. Not only Indians but through out the world the game has been promoted. Some of the marketing strategies (that are broadly seen & made the league a case for business revolution) are as mentioned below. 1) Auctioning the franchisees: the first step of giving franchisees to

some big guns in India like Mukesh Ambani, Shahrukh Khan, Vijay Mallya and the likes, which fetched huge public attention and helped creating curiosity in their minds. 2) Auctioning the players participating in the IPL tournament: BCCI has not any let any marketing strategy go down they announced the amounts for players by asking a bid by some sponsors, players like Mahendra Singh Dhoni,S.Shrisanth, R.P.Singh, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguli, Rahul Dravid called for a huge amount, that eventually gave the IPL a publicity stunt. 3) Advertisements on various TV and radio channels. 4) Cheerleaders: one can’t deny the fact that cheerleaders are one of the most important factors influencing the people to come watch the game.

The names of some channels and the amount involved would be shown in the table ahead. 6) Locations: the venues selected for the games are the cities of which the franchisee is named after. 7) Conflicts with some media partners and some other cricket boards again demanded the attention of people. 8) Timing: time selected for the game is in the evening so that people can have a great entertainment after the hectic experience in the offices. 9) ICL: the rival ICL had been one of the reasons for the publicity and emergence of IPL. People started comparing the IPL & ICL that caused the huge publicity for the IPL. 10)Franchises taken by film stars like Shahrukh Khan, Pretty Zinta, juhi chawla etc are the center for attraction. 11)Opening ceremony gala. 12) Live concerts like one show by Hariharan before Chennai and Mumbai match.

expected revenue. Further planning for funds and budgeting. Allocation of the funds to franchisees & players, payment of wages, etc. are the financial activities. These revenues generated from sponsorships and other activities fall under the Central Pool, 40% of which will go to IPL, 54% distributed to franchisees and 6% to prize money. The money will be distributed in these proportions till 2017, after which the share of IPL will be 50%, franchisees 45% and prize money 5%.
