<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=procter+%26+Gamble">Procter &amp; Gamble</a> India is going to stop supply of its <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=oral+B">Oral-B</a> toothpaste owing to low profits and market share. 
 
P&amp;G had launched the toothpaste in India in 2013 but managed to acquire around 1% of the toothpaste market share-less than <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=patanjali">Baba Ramdev’s Patanjali</a>, <keyword id="80626" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Colgate-Palmolive">Colgate-Palmolive</keyword> and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=unilever">Unilever</a>. 
 However, a P&amp;G spokesperson said the <keyword id="3275450" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Oral-B-toothpaste">Oral-B toothpaste</keyword> will be made available in few locations in Indi depending on the local market share of the product. 
 Speculations are rife that Oral-B’s run was stopped by <keyword id="6356684" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="patanjali">Patanjali</keyword>’s toothpaste too, which has become a cause of worry for many in the Rs 7,000-crore oral care market. 
 
Early this year, P&amp;G said it would de-prioritise several unprofitable lines of business in India. 
 
"Last fiscal year, organic sales growth slowed by several points but we made significant progress in improving local profit margin, up 700 basis points. We went from losing money in India to triple-digit profits," said P&amp;G's Chief Financial Officer, Jon Moeller.

At least 27 advertisers have stopped advertising on Tucker Carlson's Fox News show in recent months after the host's controversial comments. Here's the list.

He hoped to chop $1 billion in costs off P&amp;G's massive $10 billion annual ad budget, the biggest on the planet.
A year later, and the experiment isn't going so well. McDonald actually managed to get rid of 6,250 jobs, most of them brand managers, according to his <a href="http://www.pginvestor.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=104574&amp;p=irol-presentations">most recent presentation to Wall Street</a>. That's the "good" news.
The bad news is that those "free" social media impressions have not cut $1 billion in costs from P&amp;G's ad budget. Ad Age estimates <a href="http://adage.com/article/special-report-pg-at-175/procter-gamble-s-advertising-spending-1987-2012/237974/">P&amp;G still spends nearly $10 billion a year</a>. But while that number may be roughly flat, it's become less effective over the year.
Now, P&amp;G's ad budget is set to rise again — and in part it's because <keyword id="6354576" type="CITY" weightage="60" keywordseo="Facebook">Facebook</keyword> ended the free ride for advertisers in the middle of last year. McDonald and his CFO, Jon Moeller, both said the company had begun increasing paid marketing spending again, even to the extent of super-traditional door-to-door sales.
According to <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/procter-gambles-ceo-discusses-q3-170131248.html">a Seeking Alpha transcript of the call</a>, the pair were asked:
Michael Steib - Credit Suisse: Good morning. You made several references towards investing behind marketing spending, could you be a bit more specific please? What does that mean, does that mean that ad spend for example is up sequentially in absolute terms and as a percentage of sales?
Bob McDonald: Yes.
Jon Moeller: Yes.
Michael Steib - Credit Suisse: Okay.
Bob McDonald: It also means we are investing in things like sampling – door to door sampling, selling, things that will generate trial and awareness of the new innovations.
<div class="image-container float_right click-to-enlarge" style="width:400px"><div class="image"><a title_source="P&amp;G" title_caption="P&amp;G details its layoffs." class="zoomin" href="http://static6.businessinsider.com/image/51886017eab8ea4e7b00000e-960/screen%20shot%202013-05-06%20at%209.19.35%20pm.png"></a></div>P&amp;GP&amp;G details its layoffs.</div>Ad Age noted that P&amp;G's year has thus far left investors unimpressed. One analyst accused the company of fudging its numbers upward:
Dara Mohsenian - Morgan Stanley: Hi. Bob, I just wanted to focus on the top line. The two-year average organic sales growth decelerated in the quarter versus Q2 and last year despite the higher marketing and the greater innovation. And it looks like it was even rounded up to get to 3%. …
Ad Age notes that while <a href="http://adage.com/article/news/p-g-hike-u-s-marketing-spending-year-s-drop/241071/">P&amp;G cut U.S. spending 5% last year to $2.8 billion</a>, its rivals stepped in to the vacuum. L'Oreal increased spending 1.9% to 1.5 billion and the beauty category as a whole saw spending rise 5% to $6.8 billion. So why did P&amp;G's free-on-Facebook experiment fail? One reason is that Facebook changed the rules mid-year. It <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/facebook-changed-edgerank-algorithm-to-hurt-advertisers-2012-10">altered the news feed algorithm</a> (which some refer to as "Edgerank") so a brand's page posts are only seen by about 15% of a brand's fans. If companies wanted to guarantee reaching their entire audience, they had to pay for ads inside Facebook.
The free ride — in which brands with big fan bases could reach a large percentage of them without paid media — was over.
P&amp;G now also appears to be rediscovering the need for paid <keyword id="35666" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="advertising">advertising</keyword>.
