Comparison• In other places, people go to museums because they view them as tourist
spots. Museums are attractive to people because objects are displayed in an interesting way and building itself is a fascination as pointed out by visitors.
• Also they get interesting stuff or souvenirs which could be used as decorative items in their homes, at the museum shop at an affordable price.
• Wonderful Café which serves as an alternative to one kind of recreational space.
• This is because they have to generate their own income.• Outside India, people don’t go to the museums because they don’t know
what is happening in the museums. Lack of awareness is important issue abroad and museums are tackling this through effective marketing strategies.

•In India, despite some marketing strategies are similar those used in foreign museums, the museums are not popular. Here, mostly people are not aware of the existence of the museum itself. India is not a museum going culture unlike other countries, but the museums are trying to carve their niche. •Museums are running due to government funding, so much is not done in order to popularize the museums. •So Museums have to break the stereotypical notion about itself of being passive and that can be done through proper advertising.

Conclusion • Marketing strategies of museums like Uffizi and
Kunsthistorisches try to attract potential visitors by giving discounts on various things like items of the souvenir shops and on the tickets itself. Special privileges are given to the members and friends of the museum.
• In India, museums like NM and NGMA are trying to compete with the museums of abroad. These museums are trying to develop things like shops, café which would attract visitors. However, offers on these things are distant dreams. This would happen once the museums will be able to make their space in the society.

• The museums in India are trying to follow the examples of the museums of the West.•It can be seen that most of the marketing strategies which are according to the what we call as P’s of marketing have been put into application by the museums here and abroad.•However it is important to question that is it correct and feasible to follow the examples of the museums outside India? Given the fact that in India the scenario is not the same.•However, it would be a good start to take some of the marketing strategies used by foreign museums and use it here and then accordingly modify those strategies.• Like the Uffizi Gallery has designed a game about its gallery, similar thing can be used by museums like National Museum or National Gallery of Modern Art, so this would fulfill one of the functions of a museum that is edutainment- education with entertainment.•In India, it is very important that people started to come to the museums and marketing can make this possible.
