Preface• Marketing is one of the most important functions in business. It is
the discipline required to understand customers' needs and the benefits they seek.
• No study can be termed complete if there is no practical experience. Hence need for training has become a real necessity. The training aims to prepare students through a process of practical experience. Practical exposure no doubt has contributed a significant amount of knowledge to me along with real life experience and was an ideal combination of academic knowledge and practical experience.
• Marketing activities can be regarded as lifeblood of all business concerns. In order to enhance the performance of marketing department and overall success of a business concern, study of consumer behavior and their satisfaction, sales and distribution channels, advertisement and competitive advantages is necessary. The performance of a company is very much important for an organization.
• Saras Dairy, Alwar is in fact a very ideal location to gain practical experience. I am sure the experience gained in short duration, will go a long way in all my future endeavors.

Problems/Constraints/Limitations
• The data collected is totally dependent on respondents’ views, which could be bias in nature.
• Sometimes respondents do not give a response or give partial response. It is called non response error. The reason may be lack of knowledge or unwillingness to answer.
• The sample size is small and it may not actually represent the whole population.• During the survey I came across unfavorable weather conditions like scorching heat
and dust storm.• There is limited time available each day and lot of tasks have to completed in a day
like preparing reports, conducting surveys, spend time at the office to gain knowledge, etc.
• The study was conducted in the urban areas and it cannot be applied to the rural areas because the tastes and preferences of people of rural and urban areas differ vastly.
• The answers given by the respondents are not always correct and may be misleading.• It is very time consuming to go door to door in order to conduct a survey of various
homes and find their views and study their buying behavior.• Sometimes it becomes very difficult to convince people as many of them are not at
all aware of Saras products and some are very stubborn. It becomes slightly difficult to convince such people but it is a challenging task and a good learning experience.
• In some cases the respondent is not present at home.• It is not possible and economically viable to recall respondents not present at home.• Sometimes the respondents are not educated. Personal interviews are successful
only when the respondents are educated.
04/11/23 Final Report 19
