MARKETINGAccording to marketing concept, an organization should try to provide

products that satisfy customers' needs through a coordinated set of activities that also allows the organization to achieve its goals. Customers satisfaction is the major focus of the Marketing concept .An organization should must determine what customers want and use this information to create satisfying products The organization must also continue to alter ,adapt, and develop products to keep pace with customers- changing desires and preferences. The marketing concept emphasis that marketing begins and ends with customers.

The marketing concept is not a second definition of marketing .It is a management philosophy guiding an organization overall activities .This philosophy affects all organizational activities, not just Marketing .Production finance, accounting, personnel, and marketing departments must work together. Today, businesses want to satisfy customers and build meaningful long term buyer-seller relationships. The term relationship marketing refers to long term mutually beneficial arrangement in which boththe buyer and seller focus on value enhancement through the creation of more satisfying exchanges.

To expedite exchanges and develop beneficial exchange relationships, firm marketing managers must develop and manage marketing strategies. A marketing strategy is a plan of action for developing, distributing, promoting, and pricing products that meets the needs of specific customers. The marketing strategy articulates the best use of the firms' resources and tactics to met its objectives. To develop and manage marketing strategies, marketers focus on several tasks:

Selecting a target market, developing a marketing mix,

assessing environmental forces,

and managing marketing efforts effectively.

A target market is a specific group of buyers on whose needs and wants a company focuses its marketing efforts. Marketing managers may define a target market as a vast number of people or as a relatively small group.

A market opportunity exist when the right combination of circumstances and timing permit an organization to take action to reach a particular target market.

VALUE OF MARKETING

Every organization should follow/abide the values of Marketing. i.e. Ethics and Social responsibility.

ETHICS

Ethics may be one of the most misunderstood and controversial concepts in marketing. Nevertheless, this concept and its application need to be examined in order to support Marketing decisions that are acceptably and beneficial to the society.

The term ethics relates to values and choices and focuses on standards, rules, and codes of conduct that govern the behavior of individuals. Marketing ethics refer to principles that define acceptable conduct in marketing. The most basic ethical issues have been codified as laws and regulations to encourage marketers to conform to society's

expectations of conduct. At a minimum, marketers are expected to obey theses laws and regulations .however. It is important to realize that marketing ethics goes beyond legal issues: ethical marketing decisions foster trust in marketing relationship.

Some marketers engage in ethical behavior because of enlightened self interest, or the expectation that ethics pays. These businesses believe that if they do not act in the public interest, the public and customers will strike back with restrictive regulations and legal action. Research has shown that the values of and examples set by the organization often have more influence on ethical decisions in marketing than a persons own value.

Developing awareness of ethical issues is important in understanding and improving marketing ethics. An ethical issue is an identifiable problem. Situation or opportunity requiring an individual or organization to choose from among several actions that must be evaluated as right or wrong, ethical or unethical.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Compared wi th e th ics , soc ia l r e spons ib i l i ty r epresen t s a b roader conceptualization. Social responsibility in marketing refers to an organization s obligation to maximize its positive impact and minimize its negative impact on society. Whereas ethics relates to doing the right thing in

making individual and group choices, social responsibility is achieved by balancing the interest of stakeholders in an organization.

The four dimensions of social responsibility are generally considered to be a) Economic b) legal c) ethical and d) philanthropic concerns.

Economic: Be profitable

Legal: Obey the law - law is society's codification of right and wrong.

Ethical: Be ethical – Obligation to do what is right, just and fair.

Philanthropic: Be a good corporate citizen -- Contribute resources to the community: improve the quality of life.

FRANCHISING

Franchising is an arrangement whereby a supplier, or franchiser grants a dealer, or a franchisee, the right to sell products in exchange for some type of consideration The franchiser may receive some percentage of total sales in exchange of furnishing equipment, building, management know-how and marketing assistance to the franchisee. The franchise supplies labor and capital, operates the franchised business, and agrees to abide by the provisions of the franchise agreement.

Franchising offers several advantages to both the franchisee and the franchiser. It enables a franchisee to start a business with limited capital and use the business experience of others. Moreover, nationally advertised retailers are

Page 4: Customer Satisfaction of BSNL Products

often assured of customers as soon as they open. If business problems arise, the franchisee can obtain guidance and advice from the franchiser at little or no cost. Franchised outlets are generally more successful than independently owned businesses .Less than ten percent of franchised retail businesses fail during the first two years of operation, whereas approximately half of independent retail business fails during that period. The franchisee also receives materials to use in local advertising and can take part in national promotional campaigns sponsored by the franchiser.

The franchiser gains fast and selective product distribution through franchise arrangements without incurring the high cost of constructing and operating its own outlets. The franchiser therefore has more capital for expanding production and advertising It can also ensure, through the franchise agreement, that the outlets are maintained and operated by its own standard. The franchiser benefit from the fact that the franchisee, being the sole proprietor in most of the cases, is likely to be very highly motivated to succeed. Success of the franchiser means more sales, which translates in to higher royalties for the franchiser.

TOOLS FOR TRACKING AND MEASURING

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

Customer satisfaction we can measure by the various methods they are:

COMPLAINT AND SUGGESTION SYSTEM

A customer-centered organization makes it easy for its customer to deliver suggestions and complaints. Many restaurants and hotel provides forms for guests to report likes and dislikes. Some customer-centered companies P&G General Electric, Whirlpool-establish not lines with too-free 800 telephone numbers. Companies are also adding web pages and e-mail to facilitate two-way communication. These information's flows provide companies' with many good ideas and enable them to act quickly to resolve problem.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SURVEYS Studies show that although customers are dissatisfied with one out of

every four purchases, less than 5% of dissatisfied customer will complain. Most customers will buy less or switch suppliers. Complaint levels are thus not a good measure of customer satisfaction. Responsive companies measure customer satisfaction directly by conducting periodic surveys. They send questionnaires or make telephone calls to random sample of recent customer. They also solicit buyers, views on their competitors' performances.

Whole collecting customer satisfaction data, it is also use fuel to ask additional questions to measure re-purchase intention; this will normally be high, if the customer satisfaction is high. It is also useful to measure the likelihood or willingness to recommend the company and brand to others. A high positive word-of mouth score indicates that the company is producing high customer satisfaction.

LOST CUSTOMER ANALYSIS

Companies should contact customer who had stopped buying or who have switched to another suppliers to learn why this happened. When IBM loses a

customer, it mounts a through effort to learn where it failed. Not only is it important to conduct exit interviews when customers first stop buying, but is also necessary to monitor the customer loss rate. If it is increasing this is clearly indicates that the company is falling to satisfy customers.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

year Project

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

The whole approach of marketing pivots around the tenet of meeting the consumer wants, if is essential to understand what the customer wants, how he/she perceives the products (Service), what exactly does he/she wants to derive out of the products (Service), how does he/she make the brand choice decision, what are the sources of information and influence processes? Etc.

In order to take decision any marketer would constantly monitor such information and obtain continues feed back of the trends in the market. As such, marketing research, trade channel behavior, and competitive actions etc. It provides a link age between the corporate environment and the marketing organization. Marketing research thus may be viewed as an aid for tackling problems in marketing.

MARKETING RESEARCH - DEFINITION Marketing research is definition as the objective as the objective and formal process of systematically obtaining, analyzing and interpreting data for actionable decision making in, marketing. This definition lays stress on two aspects, namely, objectively and systematic process in the collection and analysis of data. In fact, marketing research should not be allowance to be influenced by personal view and considerations. Before undertaking any research study it is essential to delimit the primary objectives of the project and define the methodology, of undertaking the project in as much details as possible- Also there is an implicit assumption that the ultimate findings should have the actionable quality. That is, the user must be able to utilize the

DDE M.U university 10 Rupesh Kr. Singh

Page 11: Customer Satisfaction of BSNL Products

Results for marketing decision making purpose. Otherwise, its ability considerably undermined. That is to say, any marketing research done on an arbitrary basis (i.e. luck of objectivity) or applying one's personal convenience in the data collection and interpretation (i.e., no systematic search) will certainly be of no use.

COMMON USES OF RESEARCH IN MARKETING DECISION MAKING

The following paragraph highlights some of the marketing decision areas whole marketing research is commonly used. These activities are divided in to seven categories for illustration purpose.

SALES MANAGEMENT

Marketing research is popularly used to determined market demand and supply. As such, estimation of demand and supply include many more detailed analyses For example, an analysis of demand side of the market includes.

1. A delineation of market boundary and how they are changing.

2. Assessment of present and future, buyer concentration.

3. Projections of demand for the total market and for major market segments.

Market Boundary;-Theologically a market may be defined as being bounded by all the closely substitutable. Offering that may satisfy a given consumer need. However the problem of precise definition being. What is closely substitutable? How broadly the consumer need be defined? How many consumers should be included in the market definition when

different offerings are targeted at different groups of consumers? The question becomes particularly pertinent when consumer needs are varied. The issue becomes that of evolving market segments through suitable basis which may differentiate consumer's need. This problem is elaborated further under segmentation research.

BUYER CONCENTRATION

Marketing research is made use of to measure how buyers exist in the market and how sales are distributed among them is estimation of market share by brand purchased, geographical position of the buyer, type of industry, user industrial

technology adopted etc.

DEMAND PROJECTIONS

Demand may be estimated in units of value terms and also, the overall growth rates in key market. Segments are often estimated for better sales management.

SUPPLY

An analysis of the supply side of the market is also similarly carried out by marketing research studies. It included.

I. Assessments of present supply structure (In terms of concentration of competition, product differentiation and entry barriers). Supply structure refers to the study of how many companies operate in the market and how are sales distributed among them?. Secondly study how "differentiated" all the products offered? What barriers exist to enter in to the market by new firms?. Entry barriers may cause because their particular item is in the exclusive domain of the small scale sector,special manufacturing skills required as noticeable in case of high technology products, specialized marketing network required to market a product in the total Indian Market.

II. A deception of the character of competition, competitor's strategies is most sought after topic of investigation of marketing research today. It includes comparative evaluation of such issues.

a. Market share analysis of branches

b. Positioning of each brand

c. Distribution channels adopted and method of selling.

d. Prices charged and how they all changing with time.

e. Advertising campaigns and promotion programmer adopted corporate image and capabilities.

IIn other words, It fever to ascertain how the competitors are defining

their business in terms of consumer groups, segments being pursued as reflected by their marketing mix portfolios.

CONSUMER BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS Large number of marketing research studies are undertaken to understand consumer behavior. Especially for each products service studies are widely conducted to know issues like.

HAT? /HOW? /WHERE? /WHO? /WHEN? /WHY?

Marketing research is undertaken specifically to answer such questions about consumer motivation, perception which facilitate decision making. It is not enough just, to "ask " how do consumers use the products" Instead the question must as certain the significance of the answer so far as marketing decision making is concerned. For example, "What close if mean for product strategy, advertising message, physical distribution, pricing strategy etc.?

Market Segmentation

Faced with heterogeneous composition of markets, every market tries to utilize marketing research input to from market segments. Segmentation research specifically helps in.

1. Designing the products that truly matcher the demand of the market.

2. Directing the appropriate advertising appeals and promotional pack ages to the potential profitable segments of is market.

CUSTOMER VALUE AND SATISFACTION The pay to generating high customer loyalty is to deliver high customer value. According to Michael Lanning, in his Delivering Profitable Value, a company must develop a competitively superior value proposition and a superior value - delivery system. A company's values proposition is much more than its positioning on a single attribute, Its is a statement about the resulting experience customer will have the offering and their relation. shop with the suppliers. The brand must represent a promise about the total

Resulting experience that customer can expect. Whether the promise is kept depends upon the company's ability to manage its value-delivery system. The value delivery system includes all communications and channel experience the customer will have on the way to obtaining the offering. 9

A similar theme is emphasized by Simon Know and Stan Macklan in their competing on value. Too many companies create a value gap by falling to alight brand value with customer value. Brand marketers try to distinguish their

DDE M.U university 13 Rupesh Kr. Singh

Page 14: Customer Satisfaction of BSNL Products

brand item other buy a slogan or with a unique selling proposition or by augmenting the basic offering with added services. But they are les successful in delivering customer value, primarily, because their marketing people focus on brand development whether customer will actually receive the promised notice propositions will depend upon the marketer's ability to influence various Cole processes. Know and Maklun wan company's Cole processes as designing the brand profile.

In addition to tracking customer value expectations and satisfaction, companies need to monitor their competitor's performance in these areas. For example, a company was pleased to find that 80 percent of its customers said they were satisfied. Then the CEO found out that its leading competitions attained a 90 percent customer satisfaction score. He was further dismayed when he learned that his competitions was aiming to reach a 95 percent satisfaction score.

Communications

Communication is the process of exchanging information, usually via common system of symbols. It takes a wide variety of forms, from two people having a face-to-face conversation, to hand signals, to messages sent over global telecommunication is what allows us to interact with other people, without it, we would be unable to shall knowledge or experiences with anything outside of ourselves. Common forms of communication include speaking, writing gestus amd broad casting.

The hand, a phenomenon exclusive to humans is perhaps the 'original communication tool where it can express caring, hatsed construction, destruction, approval or condemnation. To the deaf it is their

way in to the artist, it is their way through, to the writer, it is the way with.

The Latin root word of communication is communicate, which has three possible meanings,

a) " To make common", which is probably derived from either 2 or 3

b) Cum + munus, i.e. having gifts to share in a mutual donation.

c) Cum + munire; i.e. building together a defense, like the walls of a city.

DEFINING COMMUNICATION

There is no single definition of communication that satisfies everyone. In 1970, Franc Dance had identified 126 published definitions.

TYPE OF COMMUNICATION

To some people "Communication" implies two different and sometimes conflicting things. On the one hand, it means to have a thoughtful exchange of views (dialogue) with a small numbers of people, perhaps, just one. But it can also mean to disseminate broadly a simple message without deep thought or appeals for feedback.

Interpersonal

The most basic forms of communication are primarily those which involve communicating with people immediately present, such as one-in-one and group conversations.

Tele Communication

Tele communication is communication over spatial distances. The term is most often used in describing electronic means of communication, but can also include methods such as smoke signals and semaphore.

Animal

Humans all not the only craters who communicate. Animals share information with each other in variety of ways.

Academic Study

The various aspects .of communication has long been the subject of human study. In ancient Greece, the study of shetoric, the art of effective speaking and persuasion, was a vital subject for students.

In the early 20th century, many specialists began to study communication as a specific pace of their academic disciplines. Communication studies began to emerge as a distinct academic field in the mid-20th century. Marshall Meluhan was one of the early pioneers.

Communication Technology

Page 18: Customer Satisfaction of BSNL Products

Customer satisfaction of BSNL products MBA 3rd

As regards human communication these diverse fields can be divided into the which cultivate a thoughtful exchange between a small numbers of people on the hanmd; and those which disseminate broadly a simple message.(Public relations; television, Hollywood films)

Our indebtedness to the Romans in the field of communication dose not ends with the root "Communicare". They devised what might be described as the first real main or postal system in order to control the expire from Rome by gathering knowledge about events in far off places.

As the Romans well knew, communication is as much about taking in towards the until as it is about putting out towards the esteems.In virtual management an important issue is computer-medicated communication.

The view people take to communication is changing, as new technologies change the way they communicate and organize. This new trend in communication, decentralized personal networking is termed smart mobiling.

Telecommunications

Etymology;

The term comes from a contraction of the Greek tele, meaning 'far', and communications, meaning "in: the discipline that studies the principles of transmitting information and the methods by which it is delivered (as print or radio or television etc.)" The term is most used to refer to communication using some type of signaling, such as the aldis lamp or the transmission and reception of electromagnetic energy. This vocers many media and technologies including radio, fiber optics, telegraphy, television, telephone, data communication and computer networking, although other types of signaling are also included.

The basic elements of a simple telecommunications system are:

DDE M.U university 18 Rupesh Kr. Singh

Page 19: Customer Satisfaction of BSNL Products

Customer satisfaction of BSNL products MBA 3rd

year Project

a) A transmitter that operate upon the information to be communicated in such a way that some type of signal suitable for transmission is produced (this includes any in coding, compression, and error correcting operations, modulation processes if some type of carrier is to be used, or virtually any other operation that is to be performed upon the information in order to prepare it for transmission in the form of a signal)b) A signal that. is transmitted by the transmitter

c) A transmission medium, which constitutes a communications channel over which the signal is transmitted.d) A receiver (such as a radio receiver) that receives the signal and reverses any and all of the operations that were performed upon the information by the transmitter in order to convert it into the form of a signal and reverses any and all of the operations that were performed upon the information by the transmitter in order to convert it into the form of a signal (e.g. the receiver decodes, decompresses, compares error correction codes, demodulates the signal to separate it from any carrier that was used, etc. and generally performs these operations in the exact reverse order in which they were performed by the transmitter )

Telecommunication can be point-to-point, point-to-multipoint or broadcasting, which is a particular form of point-to multipoint that goes only from the transmitter to the receivers.

One of the roles of the telecommunications engineer is to analyze the physical properties of the line or transmission medium, and the statistical properties of the message (see Information theory) in order to design the most effective encoding and decoding mechanism.

When systems are designed to communicate through human sensory organs (mainly those for vision and hearing), physiological and psychological characteristics of human perception must be taken into account. Certain types of defect, while objectively measurable, are not readily apparent to human perception while others are disproportionately apparent. The cost of a system can therefore be reduced cost and user demand for higher quality, and this is an important economic consideration for those who plan systems.

The field of telecommunications is no doubt one of the most exciting occupational fields that modern society has to offer. New technology is constantly being developed and finds its applications in the technical systems that make up a telecommunications network. This creates opportunities for developing existing services further, and introducing completely new ones.

Examples of telecommunication systems;

1. Semaphore

2. Telegraphy

3. Radio teletype

4. The global telephone network (also known as the Public Switched Telephone Network of PSTN)

5. Radio

6. Television

9. The Internet

Types of Telecommunication devices: Mobile Phone: In telecommunication, a wireless phone, cellular mobile or cell phone (in the United States), also called a mobile phone in other English speaking countries, is a mobile communications system that uses a combination of radio wave transmission and conventional telephone switching to permit telephone communication to and from mobile users within a specified area, The term does not comprise the so-called portable phone or cordless phone, which is associated with a fixed telephone landline and can only be operated close to (less than 100 meters of) its base station, such as in and around the house (see telephone for more). The term cell phone applies specifically to mobile phones which use a cellular network; satellite phones are also mobile phones, but not cellular.

History

Mobile phones have existed at least since the 1950s; thought the distinction becomes blurry when special systems are used to "patch" conversational Radiotelephones (2-way radio) into a phone network with the assistance of human operators. Modem mobile phones can make and receive calls automatically, operating as would a normal phone (thought most have a super set of the ability of fixed-line phones).

Mobile phones began to proliferate through the 1980s with the introducing of "cellular" phones, with multiple base stations located relatively close to each other, and protocols for the automated "hand-off' between two cells when a phone moved from one cell to the other. In this era, mobile phones were same what larger than current ones, and many were designed for permanent installation in cars, or as "transportable" phone the size of a briefcase.

DDE M.U university 21 Rupesh Kr. Singh

As technology improved through the 1990s, the larger "bricks" disappeared and tiny hand-held phones became the norm.

base, as mobile network costs are mostly call volume related, while fixed-line telephony has a much higher subscriber related cost component.

Cellular Telephony -

A cell phone is a portable telephone which receives or sends messages through a Cell site, or transmitting tower. Radio waves are used to transfer signals to and from the cell phone. Each cell site has a range of 3-5 miles and overlaps other cell sites. All of the cell sites are connected to one or more cellular switching exchanges which can detect the strength of the signal received from the telephone. As the telephone user moves or roams from one cell area to another, the exchange automatically switches the call to the cell site with the strongest signal.

The term "cell phone" is uncommon outside of the US and Japan. However, almost all mobile phones use cellular technology, including GSM, CDMA and the old analog mobile phone systems. Hence, many people use the term "cell phone" to mean any mobile telephone system. The exceptions to mobile phones using cellular technology are satellite phones.

The Iridium phone system is very like a cell phones system except the cell sites are in orbit. The marine radio telephone satellites administered by INMARSAT have a completely different system (see below).Old systems pre-dating the cellular principle may still be in use in places. The most notable real hold-out is that many amateur radio operators maintain phone patches in their clubs' VHF repeaters.

Early mobiles were analog; newer ones are digital.

There are a number of different digital cellular technologies; these include: GSM, CDMA and DECT.

Mobile phone technology is often ctivided into generations: IG, 2G, 2.5G, 2.7G and 3G:

IG AMPS, TAGS

2G TDMA, CDMA, GSM, PCs, ISDN

2.5 GPRS

2 .7 EDGE

3G UMTS

All of these technologies were based on cellular technology, However, satellite based phones are called mobile phones too.

Major mobile phone manufacturers include Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola.

Many mobile phones support 'auto-roaming', which permits the same phone to be used in multiple countries. However, both countries must use the same mobile system and the same frequencies, and there must be an agreement between the two countries' telephone operators.In the UK and Australia mobile phones are often called simply mobiles in Germany, they are called Handy. In Sweden they are sometimes called nolle, or "teddy bear", referring to the fact that many people always carry them around and feel insecure if they misplace them.

Mobile phones must be distinguished from portable phones (called cordless phones in the US); with a portable phone the user purchases their own base station, which they connect to a landline, the range of the phone is generally restricted to under 50 m, and the phones operate on a different frequency and protocol (e.g. DCTS in North America; DECT in Europe)

Mobile phones do not only support voice calls; they can also send and receive data and faxes (if a computer is attached), sending short messages (or "text messages"; see Short Message Service), access WAP services, and provide full Internet access using technologies such a GPRS. Mobile phones often have a clock and a calculator and often one play some games on them.

Newer models also for sending pictures and have a built-in digital camera. This gives rise to some concern about privacy, in view of possible voyeurism, for example in swimming pools. For this reason Saudi Arabia has banned camera phones entirely; South Korea has ordered manufacturers to ensure that all new handsets emit a beep whenever a picture is taken. On the other hand, cameras can be used by crime victims or witnesses to help identify the criminals.

GPS receivers are starting to appear in cell phones, primarily to aid in dispatching emergency responders.Newer models have included many features aimed towards personalization, such as user defined ring tones and operator logos, and interchangeable covers, which have helped in the uptake by the teenage market.

Usually one can choose between a ring tone and a vibrating alert.

Satellite Telephony (INMARSAT):

Inmarsats use a completely different system. Basically, the satellite simply retransmits whatever signals it receives. The mobile stations actually log into a ground station.

Interpretation-

all the other telecom services provider has distributed their promotional materials at the shops; they themselves go there to install glow sign boards banner posters and any other promotional material whereas I did not find any kind of BSNL’s promotional material at any shop where I took the interview. If there is no promotional material at the shops how the customers will come to know that what are the current plans and what are the plan prices. So here BSNL is missing the very important P among the 4Ps of marketing which is affecting BSNL’s sales and revenue.

Interpretation-

When the research was completed we took the sample of the selling of SIM cards and divided it into parts as per retailer’s information. I found that customer shown their interest in Vodafone services more than any other company, BSNL also got good percentage but not satisfactory, as per the company’s potential. This can be increased by improving marketing strategy and implementing that in a proper way.
