Abstract This study examines the role of Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC) in ensuring business survival, with a specific focus on Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL). By analyzing HUL's diverse marketing campaigns, this research explores how a well-coordinated IMC strategy can enhance brand awareness, customer engagement, and ultimately, drive business growth. The study delves into the key components of IMC, including advertising, public relations, sales promotion, and digital marketing, and assesses their impact on HUL's overall marketing performance. Additionally, the research highlights the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing IMC in the dynamic Indian market. HUL's successful application of IMC demonstrates the power of a unified and consistent brand message across various channels. By leveraging traditional and digital media, HUL has effectively reached its target audience, built strong brand equity, and fostered customer loyalty. However, implementing IMC
requires careful planning, execution, and measurement. Challenges such as budget allocation, agency coordination, and measuring the impact of IMC can hinder its effectiveness. Nevertheless, IMC offers significant opportunities for businesses to enhance brand awareness, improve customer experience,
drive sales and revenue, and gain a competitive advantage. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, businesses must adapt their IMC strategies to stay relevant and connect with consumers in meaningful ways. By embracing the principles of IMC and leveraging emerging technologies, businesses can unlock the full potential of integrated marketing and secure their long-term success.
