Abstract: Strangely enough in this world of sophisticated communication technologies we still realize greatly upon the views heard from others rather than going by what is being promoted popularly. The demographic paradigm has witnessed a sea of change in terms of education and thereby has resulted in higher levels of awareness and value expectations.
In products like movies, organized retailing the above mentioned phenomenon is very evident wherein consumers rely greatly upon the feedback they receive from authentic sources for even testing the value delivery proposition. Therefore it has become imperative for a marketer to initiate value convincing promotions amongst the opinion creators.
Key Words: communication technologies, demographic paradigm, value expectations, authentic sources, value delivery proposition.
