Introduction In recent years there have been signs of substantial research interest in marketing practices of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) (Gillmore et. al, 2001; Blankson and Stokes, 2002; Hill, 2001; Siu, 2000; Siu et. al, 2004; Morrison, 2003; Lee et. al, 2001). Most of these studies have indicated the role of marketing to be critical in the sustainability of the small firms. In a recent study (Huang and Brown, 1999), the problems of sales and marketing were reported as important by 40 percent of the firms surveyed while other important factors reported were human resources (15 percent), general management (14 percent) and production / operations (9 percent) \ In India, a survey by the All India Management Association pointed out that among 872 SSI (Small Scale Industry) units in manufacturing, growth fell by 8.1 percent in 1998-2002. One of the main reasons cited by the units for not being able to do well was problems related to marketing (70 percent) (Jain, 2003).
