1.5 RESEARCH AND METHODOLOGY:-

Research Methodology refers to scientific procedure for the acquisition of knowledge based

on the empirical observation & logical reasoning. Scientific method consists of systematic

observation, classification & interpretation of data. Research Methodology consists of

procedures for obtaining knowledge & logical reasoning.

Methods of Research:–

1) Case study methods

2) Survey Method

3) Other Method

Data Collection:-

The collection of data means a purposive gathering of information relevant to the

subject from the units of the population. While dealing with this research project data at

the hand was inadequate and hence it becomes necessary to collect the data, there are 2

ways used to collect the data.

1. By observation

2. Through personal interview.

Methods of Data Collection:-

Two methods are used to collect the data:-

1. PRIMARY DATA

2. SECONDARY DATA

Page 5: project on customer satisfaction with reference to samsung galaxy mobile

1. Primary Data:-

The data which are collected at first hand either by the researcher or by someone else

especially for the purpose of the study are known as primary data.

Sources of collecting primary data:-

a. By Observation

b. By Personal interview

Page 6: project on customer satisfaction with reference to samsung galaxy mobile

Sampling Method:-

A sample is microcosm of the population from which it is accepted. It can only be accepted

as accurate within certain limits. Sample must be representative so that valid conclusion about

population can be inferred. However a sample cannot reflect image of population from which it

is deawen. Sampling plays a key role in systematic objective of market surveying. For this

project work random sampling method is used.

Sample Size:-

Large sample gives more reliable result than small samples. However it is not important to

sample the entire target population or substantial portion to achieve reliable result. The size of

the sample decided for this project is 100 respondents.

CHAPTER 2

2.1 Introduction to mobile Industry :-

This research work involves the study of Samsung mobiles. But before we go on to discuss more

about Samsung we will discuss about mobile industry.

The mobile industry is a very vast as well as very fast growing industry.

In India before 1990’s there were no mobiles as well as network providers. But in year 1994-95

the mobiles came into existence in India, that time no company in India was producing mobiles. The

mobiles like Motorola, Nokia, and Samsung were imported from other countries. At that time cost of

these phones were also high, it was not affordable to common man because of high prices of mobiles &

calling rates. Some rich people use to buy these mobiles because mobiles were considered as status

symbol. In India after globalization period the mobile industry was very fastly grown due to innovations

and introduction of new technologies in the field of mobile industry.

So many companies started to produce mobiles like Nokia, Samsung, LG, Motorola etc.

Now a day we can see a lot of growth in mobile industry. Because rates are cheap and companies

are producing these mobiles to suit all the class of society and added so many features and services to

support the sales. We can see there is lot of competition among the mobile companies and each company

try to gain as much as customers as possible.

Previously in developed countries like America, UK, Japan etc. the numbers of mobile users were

high as compared to India but today we can see the population in India using mobiles phones has more no

of users.

This really shows the growth of mobile industry in this era.

SAMSUNG MOBILE:-

The roots of Samsung goes back to the year 1938, the founder Byung-chull Lee set up a trade

export company in Korea selling fish, vegetables and fruit to china. Within a decade Samsung had flour

mills and confectionary machines and became co-operations in 1951.

From 1958 onwards Samsung began to expand into other industries such as financial,

media, chemicals and ship building throughout the 1970's. In 1969, Samsung Electronics was

established producing what Samsung is most famous for, Televisions, Mobile Phones

(throughout 90's), Radio's, Computer components and other electronics devices.

In 1987 founder and chairman, Byung-Chull Lee passed away and Kun-Hee-Lee took over

as chairman. In the 1990's Samsung began to expand globally building factories in the US,

Britain, Germany, Thailand, Mexico, Spain and China until 1997.

In 1997 nearly all Korean businesses shrunk in size and Samsung was no exception. They

sold businesses to relieve debt and cut employees down lowering personnel by 50,000. But

thanks to the electronic industry they managed to curb this and continue to grow.

The history of Samsung and mobile phones stretches back to over 10 years.

A Rough beginning:-

In 1977 Samsung Electronics launched the telecommunication network business and in

1983 it initiated its mobile telecommunication business with the hope that this would become the

company’s future growth engine. In 1986, Samsung was able to release its first built-in-car

phone, the SC-100 but it was a failure due to poor reception and sales, manufacturing was halted.

From this point until the early 1990’s, Samsung mobile would introduce mobile phone models,

but sales were low. The designs of the early attempts were bulky and reception was poor, with

Motorola’s huge advantage of market share, Samsung decided to drop its mobile division.

Page 10: project on customer satisfaction with reference to samsung galaxy mobile

Turning point:

In the year 1993, Samsung Mobile released the SH-700 series, which boasted a smaller

and sleeker design and better sound quality. With a better product and a more aggressive

marketing campaign, Samsung would reclaim more than half the mobile phone market share in

Korea from Motorola.

The Global Market:

Samsung cell phones found its way into American hands for the first time in 1996, when they

partnered with Sprint on a line of sleek and compact phones. A few short years later, South America and

Japan were enjoying the high-end design of Samsung Mobile phones.

Samsung Mobile Today:

In early 2011, Samsung Mobile's global market share stood at more than 20 percent, second only

to Nokia. Partially owing to strong sales of Samsung's Galaxy range of Smartphone, Samsung overtook

Apple in worldwide Smartphone sales during Q3 2011, with a total market share of 23.8%, compared to

Apple's 14.6%.

Samsung Galaxy Series:

Samsung Galaxy is a series of mobile computing devices produced by Samsung Electronics, all

of which use the operating system Android.

Samsung Galaxy Y (S5360) is an Android-based Smartphone by Samsung, announced in August 2011.

Galaxy Y was launched in October 2011. It is the cheapest Smartphone available in the Galaxy series to-

date. There is a specific reason behind the name of this handset i.e. 'Y' symbolizes 'Young'. The name

clearly indicates that it is meant for the young generation.

2.6 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

CHAPTER 3

Page 19: project on customer satisfaction with reference to samsung galaxy mobile

THEROTICAL BACKGROUND

When we talk about customer satisfaction, we talk about creativity. Creativity allows us

to handle or diffuse problems at hand or later on in the process of conducting the everyday

business. We talk about how, or rather what, does the organization have to do gain not only the

sale but also the loyalty of the customer. We want to know the payoff of the transaction both in

the short and long term. We want to know what our customer wants.

Market consist of all the potential customers, sharing of particular need or want, who

might be willing and able to engage in exchange to satisfy their needs or wants. According to

Philip Kotlar, ‘Marketing is a human activity directed at satisfying need and wants through

exchange process.’ Marketing Management is the process of planning and executing the

conception, pricing, promotion and distribution of ideas, goods and services to create exchanges

that can satisfy both individual and organizational goals.’

Customer Satisfaction can be defined as a person’s feelings of pleasure and

disappointment resulting from a product perceived, performed in relation to his or her

expectation.’

When we talk about customer satisfaction, we talk about creativity. Creativity allows us

to handle or diffuse problems at hand or later on in the process of conducting the everyday

business. We talk about how, or rather what, does the organization have to do to gain not only

the sale but also the loyalty of the customer. We want to know the payoff of the transaction both

in the short and long term. We want to know what our customer wants.

We want to know if our customers are satisfied. Satisfaction, of course, means that what we want

we delivered to customer met the customer‘s approval. We want to know if customers are

delighted and willing to comeback, and so on. Flies and Feldman present examples of that

delightful in their writings. Fleiss has written about Ben and Jerry’s ice cream and Feldman has

discussed excellence in a cad ride.

As important as delightfulness is, some of us minimize it, or even totally disregard it. At this

point, we fail. Some of the issues that will guarantee failure in sales, satisfaction, and loyalty are-

Page 20: project on customer satisfaction with reference to samsung galaxy mobile

Employees must here to a rigid chain of command. Employees are closely supervised. Rewards

are based on carrot and stick.

Level: - 1

Expectations are very simple and take the form of assumptions, must have, or take it for granted

For example:

Expect the airline to be able to take off, fly to my destination, and land safely.

I expect to get the correct blood for my blood transfusion.

And I expect the bank to deposit my money to my account and to keep a correct tally for me.

Level: - 2

Expectations are a step higher than that of level 1 and they require some form of satisfaction

through meeting the requirement and or specifications.

For example:

I expect to be treated courteously by all airline personnel.

I went to the hospital expecting to have my hernia repaired, to be in some pain after it was done,

to be out on the same day, and to receive a correct bill.

And I went to the bank expecting the bank teller to be friendly, informative, and helpful with my

transactions.

Level: - 3

Expectations are much higher than for level 1 & 2.

Level 3 requires some kind of delightfulness or a service that is so good that it attracts me to it.

For example:

An airline gives passengers travelling coach class the same superior food service that other

airline provide only for first-class passengers. In fact, I once took a flight where the flight

attendant’s actually baked cookies for us right there on the plane.

When I went to the hospital, I expected staff to treat me with respect and they carefully explained

things to me. But I was surprised when they called me at home the next day to find out how I

was doing.

Page 21: project on customer satisfaction with reference to samsung galaxy mobile

And at my house closing, the bank officer, representing the bank holding my mortgage, not only

treated me with respect and answered all my questions about my new mortgage, but just before

we shook hands to close the deal, he gave me a house-warming gift.
