INTRODUCTION
Fastrack, a sub-brand of Titan was launched in 1998.
Earlier Fastrack targeted at 12-25 year olds and positioned along the line “ Cool watches from Titan”.
Titan later relaunched the Fastrack brand in 2005 as an individual brand aiming the target segment of 18-30 year old with the baseline " How many you have?“
Strategy aimed at promoting the multiple watch owning concept.

FUTURE STRATEGIES Fastrack needs to continue its focus on innovation in all its
collections. It needs to keep coming up with creative as well as matured ads
and promote it at college festivals with the help of youth icons . Since Fastrack deals with bulk it has not entered into individual
marketing. They should encourage customization of watches in small scale with small local retailers/gift shops like archies.
Provide exciting offers throughout the year. Target rural market. Since Fastrack is associated with youth[Generation next], it should
encourage education by sponsoring students and also encourage employment by asking them to work for the company.
