                   2.  Ajay  was  appointed  as  the  marketing  head  of  Alfa  Enterprise,  a

                       manufacturer of toothpastes and toothbrushes. His target sale was 2000
                       units  a  month.  Apart  from  thinking  about  various  channels  of

                       distribution to achieve the target, he himself started visiting schools in

                       backward  areas.  He  found  that  even  after  taking  various  steps  and
                       counseling,  some  school  children  had  not  started  brushing  their  teeth.

                       He investigated and found that they could not start brushing their teeth.

                       He investigated and found that they could not afford to buy toothbrush
                       and  toothpaste.  So  with  due  permission,  he  started  donating  200

                       toothbrushes and toothpastes every month to the school.
