Companies, especially those with mature product lines (such as detergents, cereals, and appliances) wishing to sell to the 57 percent of the world who live at or below the poverty line (also known as those at the “bottom of the pyramid,” or BoP), need to make major adjustments in their marketing mixes to provide affordable, safe products that those consumers want.
