  1. Nice Case study Rahul. The case demonstrates good integration of conventional marketing tactics and effective inbound marketing strategies. I think now-a-days good placement of CTA’s (call to action) tabs on the landing pages is increasingly becoming more and more important for getting more traction as evident from this case.
