THEORETICAL BACKGROUND

5 Steps of Customer’s Buying Process:-

The Customer Buying Process (also called a Buying Decision Process) describes the process your customer goes through before they buy your product. Understanding your customer’s buying process is not only very important for your Salespeople, it will also enable you to align your sales strategy accordingly. The process has been interpreted by many scholars over the years; however, the five stages framework remains a good way to evaluate the customer’s buying process. John Dewey first introduced the following five stages in 1910:

1. Problem/Need Recognition: This is often identified as the first and most important step in the Customer’s Decision Process. A purchase cannot take place without the recognition of the need. The need may have been triggered by internal stimuli (such as hunger or thirst) or external stimuli (such as advertising or word of mouth).

2. Information Search: Having recognised a problem or need, the next step a customer may take is the Information Search stage, in order to find out what they feel is the best solution. This is the buyer’s effort to search internal and external business environments, in order to identify and evaluate information sources related to the central buying decision. Your customer may rely on print, visual, online media or word of mouth for obtaining information.

3. Evaluation of Alternatives As you might expect, customers will evaluate different products or brands at this stage on the basis of alternative product attributes – those which have the ability to deliver the benefits the customer is seeking. A factor that heavily influences this stage is the customer’s attitude. Involvement is another factor that influences the evaluation process. For example, if the customer’s attitude is

Page 10

Page 11: Customer Satisfaction Project

positive and involvement is high, then they will evaluate a number of companies or brands; but if it is low, only one company or brand will be evaluated.

4. Purchase Decision: The penultimate stage is where the purchase takes place. Philip Kotler (2009) states that the final purchase decision may be ‘disrupted’ by two factors: negative feedback from other customers and the level of motivation to accept the feedback. For example, having gone through the previous three stages, a customer chooses to buy a new telescope. However, because his very good friend, a keen astronomer, gives him negative feedback, he will then be bound to change his preference. Furthermore, the decision may be disrupted due to unforeseen situations such as a sudden job loss or relocation.

5. Post-Purchase Behaviour: In brief, customers will compare products with their previous expectations and will be either satisfied or dissatisfied. Therefore, these stages are critical in retaining customers. This can greatly affect the decision process for similar purchases from the same company in the future, having a knock-on effect at the Information Search stage and Evaluation of Alternatives stage. If your customer is satisfied, this will result in brand loyalty, and the Information Search and Evaluation of Alternative stages will often be fast-tracked or skipped altogether.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND DELIGHT :-

Customer satisfaction:-Is a term frequently used in marketing. It is a measure of how products and services supplied by a company meet or surpass customer expectation. Customer satisfaction is defined as "the number of customers, or percentage of total customers, whose reported experience with a firm, its products, or its services (ratings) exceeds specified satisfaction goals."In a survey of nearly 200 senior marketing managers, 71 percent responded that they found a customer satisfaction metric very useful in managing and monitoring their businesses.Purpose of Customer satisfaction

A business ideally is continually seeking feedback to improve customer satisfaction.

Page 11

Page 12: Customer Satisfaction Project

"Customer satisfaction provides a leading indicator of customer purchase intentions and loyalty." "Customer satisfaction data are among the most frequently collected indicators of market perceptions. Their principal use is twofold:"

1. "Within organizations, the collection, analysis and dissemination of these data send a message about the importance of tending to customers and ensuring that they have a positive experience with the company's goods and services.

2. "Although sales or market share can indicate how well a firm is performing currently, satisfaction is perhaps the best indicator of how likely it is that the firm’s customers will make further purchases in the future. Much research has focused on the relationship between customer satisfaction and retention. Studies indicate that the ramifications of satisfaction are most strongly realized at the extremes."

On a five-point scale, "individuals who rate their satisfaction level as '5' are likely to become return customers and might even evangelize for the firm. (A second important metric related to satisfaction is willingness to recommend. This metric is defined as "The percentage of surveyed customers who indicate that they would recommend a brand to friends." When a customer is satisfied with a product, he or she might recommend it to friends, relatives and colleagues. This can be a powerful marketing advantage.) "Individuals who rate their satisfaction level as '1,' by contrast, are unlikely to return. Further, they can hurt the firm by making negative comments about it to prospective.

CUSTOMER DELIGHT:-

Customer delight is surprising a customer by exceeding his/her expectations and thus creating a positive emotional reaction. This emotional reaction leads to Word of Mouth. Customer Delight directly affects sales and profitability of a company as it helps to distinguish the company and its products and services from the competition. In the past customer satisfaction has been seen as a key performance indicator. Customer satisfaction measures the extent to which the expectations of a customer are met (compared to expectations being exceeded). However, it has been discovered that mere customer satisfaction does not create brand loyalty nor does it encourage positive word of mouth.

Customer Delight can be created by the product itself, by accompanied standard services and by interaction with people at the front line. The interaction is the greatest source of opportunities to create delight as it can be personalized and tailored to the specific needs and wishes of the customer. During contacts with touch points in the company, more than just customer service can be delivered. The person at the front line can surprise by showing a sincere personal interest in the customer, offer small attentions that might please or find a solution specific to particular needs. Those front line employees are able to develop a relationship between the customer and the brand. Elements in creating motivated staff are: recruiting the right people, motivating them continuously and leading them in a clear way.

Page 12

Page 13: Customer Satisfaction Project

PURPOSE OF CUSTOMER DELIGHT:-There are three objectives when implementing Customer Delight

First, make customers loyal. As described by Sewell, that finding new customers costs 4 to 9 times more time and money than reselling to an existing client. It is thus commercially intelligent to retain as many clients as possible.

A second objective is to have customers that are more profitable. Average delighted customers spend more with less hassle. As can be seen with the list of Van Setten, when all other elements are correct, clients accord less importance to price (as long as their perception of price remains reasonable).

The last objective of Customer Delight is to have clients talk positively about your product, brand or shop, the so-called Word of Mouth. In a world of well informed customers, 92% of customers consider word of mouth as the most reliable source of information. Delighted clients are a valuable source of advertisement for your company.

CUSTOMER ANALYSIS - CONSUMPTION AND POST-PURCHASE BEHAVIOR

Consumption and Post-Purchase Behaviour

Many different types of consumption Ritual, sacred, profane, and compulsive consumption Customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction Purchase-associated cognitive dissonance Post-purchase behaviour Product disposition

Product and Service Consumption

Consumption is the possession and/or use of goods and services and the benefits they deliver.

Consumption situation Physical context: time and place of consumption Social context: the presence of others Consumption episode: the set of items belonging to the same event and occurring in

temporal proximity Consumption system: a bundle of goods and services that are consumed over time in

multiple episodes

Satisfaction versus Dissatisfaction

The level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction we experience depends upon how well the product’s performance meets our expectations.

A finite time period of possession is necessary to determine satisfaction. Satisfaction is not easily measured because: It means different things to different people The level of satisfaction can change over time

Page 13

Page 14: Customer Satisfaction Project

Satisfaction can change when consumer needs and preferences change Satisfaction includes a social dimension (the experience of others may add or subtract

from our own satisfaction)

Expectation and Satisfaction

Product experiences can be classified into three types based on the degree to which consumer expectations are fulfilled (confirmation) or not (expectancy disconfirmation):

Simple confirmation: the purchase performs as expected (satisfaction) Positive disconfirmation: when performance is better than expected (much higher

satisfaction) Negative disconfirmation: when the purchase falls short of expectations 

(dissatisfaction)

If the negative disparity is wide it may lead to the contrast effect (poor performance is magnified by the customers).

The 7 P’s of Services:-

The first four elements in the services marketing mix are the same as those in the traditional marketing mix. However, given the unique nature of services, the implications of these are slightly different in case of services.

PRODUCT

In case of services, the ‘product’ is intangible, heterogeneous and perishable. Moreover, its production and consumption are inseparable. Hence, there is scope for customizing the offering as per customer requirements and the actual customer encounter therefore assumes particular significance. However, too much customization would compromise the standard delivery of the service and adversely affect its quality. Hence particular care has to be taken in designing the service offering.

PRICING

Pricing of services is tougher than pricing of goods. While the latter can be priced easily by taking into account the raw material costs, in case of services attendant costs - such as labor and overhead costs - also need to be factored in. The final price for the service is then arrived at by including a mark up for an adequate profit margin.

PLACE

Since service delivery is concurrent with its production and cannot be stored or transported, the location of the service product assumes importance. Service providers have to give special thought to where the service would be provided. Thus, a fine dine restaurant is better

Page 14

Page 15: Customer Satisfaction Project

located in a busy, upscale market as against on the outskirts of a city. Similarly, a holiday resort is better situated in the countryside away from the rush and noise of a city.

PROMOTION

Since a service offering can be easily replicated promotion becomes crucial in differentiating a service offering in the mind of the customer. Thus, service providers offering identical services such as airlines or banks and insurance companies invest heavily in advertising their services. This is crucial in attracting customers in a segment where the services providers have nearly identical offerings.

The final three elements of the services marketing mix - people, process and physical evidence - are unique to the marketing of services.

PEOPLE

People are a defining factor in a service delivery process, since a service is inseparable from the person providing it. Thus, a restaurant is known as much for its food as for the service provided by its staff. The same is true of banks and department stores. Consequently, customer service training for staff has become a top priority for many organizations today.

PROCESS

The process of service delivery is crucial since it ensures that the same standard of service is repeatedly delivered to the customers. Therefore, most companies have a service blueprint which provides the details of the service delivery process, often going down to even defining the service script and the greeting phrases to be used by the service staff.

PHYSICAL EVIDENCE

Since services are intangible in nature, most service providers strive to incorporate certain tangible elements into their offering to enhance customer experience. Many hair salons invest in comfortable and stylish sitting areas with magazines and plush sofas for patrons to read and relax while they wait. Similarly, many restaurants invest heavily in their interior design and decorations to offer a tangible and unique experience to their guests.

Manufacturing & Engineering Sector in India :-

Manufacturing Industry:

Manufacturing sector is the backbone of any economy. It fuels growth, productivity, employment, and strengthens agriculture and service sectors. Astronomical growth in worldwide distribution systems and IT, coupled with opening of trade barriers, has led to stupendous growth of global manufacturing networks, designed to take advantage of low-waged yet efficient work force of India. 'Indian Manufacturing' sector is broadly divided into:

Capital Goods & Engineering. Chemicals, Petroleum, Chemicals & Fertilizers. Packaging. Consumer non-Durables. Electronics, IT Hardware & peripherals. Gems &Jewellery. Leather & Leather Products. Mining. Steel & non-Ferrous Metals. Textiles & Apparels. Water Equipment

Mr. Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, aims to give global recognition to the Indian economy and also place India on the world map as a manufacturing hub. India has also set for itself an ambitious target of increasing the contribution of manufacturing output to 25 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) by 2025.

Market Size:

India’s manufacturing sector could touch US$ 1 trillion by 2025, according to a report by Mckinsey and Company. There is potential for the sector to account for 25-30 per cent of the country’s GDP and create up to 90 million domestic jobs by 2025.

Investment :

In a major boost to the 'Make in India' initiative, the Government of India has received investment proposals of over Rs 1,10,000 crores (US$ 16.56 billion) in the last 12 months from various companies including Airbus, Phillips, Thomson, Samsung, LG and Flextronics among others.India has become one of the most attractive destinations for investments in the manufacturing sector.

Government Initiative:

In a bid to push the 'Make in India' initiative to the global level, Mr. Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India, pitched India as a manufacturing destination at the World International Fair in Germany's Hannover earlier this year. Mr. Modi showcased India as a business friendly destination to attract foreign businesses to invest and manufacture in the country.

Page 16

Page 17: Customer Satisfaction Project

Engineering Industry:

The Indian Engineering sector has witnessed a remarkable growth over the last few years driven by increased investments in infrastructure and industrial production. The engineering sector, being closely associated with the manufacturing and infrastructure sectors, is of strategic importance to India’s economy.India on its quest to become a global superpower has made significant strides towards the development of its engineering sector. The Government of India has appointed the Engineering Export Promotion Council (EEPC) as the apex body in charge of promotion of engineering goods, products and services from India. India exports transport equipment, capital goods, other machinery/equipment and light engineering products such as castings, forgings and fasteners to various countries of the world.India became a permanent member of the Washington Accord (WA) in June 2014. The country is now a part of an exclusive group of 17 countries who are permanent signatories of the WA, an elite international agreement on engineering studies and mobility of engineers.

Market Size:

The capital goods & engineering turnover in India is expected to reach US$ 125.4 billion by FY17.Engineering exports from India are expected to cross US$ 70 billion in FY 15 registering a growth of 15 per cent over the previous fiscal, as demand in key markets such as the US and the UAE is on the rise. Apart from these traditional markets, markets in Eastern and Central European countries such as Poland also hold huge promise.India exports its engineering goods mostly to the US and Europe, which accounts for over 60 per cent of the total exports. Recently, India's engineering exports to Japan and South Korea have also increased with shipments to these two countries rising by 16 and 60 per cent respectively.

Investment :

The engineering sector in India attracts immense interest from foreign players as it enjoys a comparative advantage in terms of manufacturing costs, technology and innovation. The above, coupled with favourable regulatory policies and growth in the manufacturing sector has enabled several foreign players to invest in India.The foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into India's miscellaneous mechanical and engineering industries during April 2000 to June 2015 stood at around US$ 4,053.72 million, as per data released by the Department of Industries Policy and Promotion (DIPP).

Customer Relationship Management:-

Customer relationship management (CRM) is a system for managing a company’s interactions with current and future customers. It often involves using technology to organize, automate and synchronize sales, marketing, customer service, and technical support.

TypesMARKETING AND CUSTOMER SERVICE

Customer relationship management systems track and measure marketing campaigns over multiple networks. These systems can track customer analysis by customer clicks and sales. Places where CRM is used include call centers, social media, direct mail, data storage files, banks, and customer data queries.

CRM IN CUSTOMER CONTACT CENTERS

CRM systems are customer relationship management platforms. The goal of the system is to track, record, store in databases, and then data mine the information in a way that increases customer relations (predominantly increased ARPU, and decreased churn). The CRM codifies the interactions between you and your customers so that you can maximize sales and profit using analytics and KPIs to give the users as much information on where to focus their marketing and customer service to maximize revenue and decrease idle and unproductive contact with your customers. The contact channels (now aiming to be omni-channel from multi-channel) use such operational methods as contact centers. The CRM software is installed in the contact centers, and help direct customers to the right agent or self-empowered knowledge. CRM software can also be used to identify and reward loyal customers over a period of time.

CRM IN B2B (BUSINESS-TO-BUSINESS) MARKET

The modern environment requires one business to interact with another via the web. According to a Sweeney Group definition, CRM is “all the tools, technologies and procedures to manage, improve, or facilitate sales, support and related interactions with customers, prospects, and business partners throughout the enterprise”. It assumes that CRM is involved in every B2B transaction.

Despite the general notion that CRM systems were created for the customer-centric businesses, they can also be applied to B2B environments to streamline and improve customer management conditions. B2C and B2B CRM systems are not created equally and different CRM software applies to B2B and Business-to-Customer (B2C) conditions. B2B relationships usually have longer maturity times than B2C relationships. For the best level of CRM operation in a B2B environment, the software must be personalized and delivered at individual levels.

Page 18

Page 19: Customer Satisfaction Project

Characteristics of CRM

Well-designed CRM includes the following characteristics:

1. Relationship management is a customer-oriented feature with service response based on customer input, one-to-one solutions to customers’ requirements, direct online communications with customer and customer service centres that help customers solve their questions.

2. Sales force automation. SFA is a technique of using software to automate the business tasks of sales, including order processing, contact management, information sharing, inventory monitoring and control, order tracking, customer management, sales forecast analysis and employee performance evaluation.

3. Use of technology. This feature is about following the technology trend and skills of value delivering using technology to make “up-to-the-second” customer data available. It applies data warehouse technology in order to aggregate transaction information, to merge the information with CRM solutions, and to provide KPI (key performance indicators).

4. Opportunity management. This feature helps the company to manage unpredictable growth and demand and implement a good forecasting model to integrate sales history with sales projections.

Implementing CRM to the company

The following are general guidelines on implementing a CRM system.

1. Make a strategic decision on what problems you want your CRM system to address, what improvements or changes it should bring in the business processes of the organization.

2. Choose an appropriate project manager. Typically IT will be engaged, however a manager with a customer service/sales and marketing business focus should be involved, as the impact of the project will be mainly on the business side.

3. Ensure executive sponsorship and top management support.4. Empower team members with the required authority to complete the tasks.5. Select the correct implementation partner. They must have both vertical and

horizontal business knowledge, as well as technical expertise.6. Define KPI's that will measure the project's success7. Use a phased approach. Work towards long-term enterprise-scale implementation

through a series of smaller, phased implementations.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Page 29

Page 30: Customer Satisfaction Project

What is research:- Research comprises "creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications." It is used to establish or confirm facts, reaffirm the results of previous work, solve new or existing problems, support theorems, or develop new theories. A research project may also be an expansion on past work in the field. To test the validity of instruments, procedures, or experiments, research may replicate elements of prior projects, or the project as a whole. The primary purposes of  basic research (as opposed to applied research) are documentation, discovery, interpretation, or the research and development (R&D) of methods and systems for the advancement of human knowledge. Approaches to research depend on epistemologies, which vary considerably both within and between humanities and sciences. There are several forms of research: scientific, humanities, artistic, economic, social, business, marketing, practitioner research, etc.

RESEARCH PROCESS:-

Research exercise may take many forms but systematic enquiry is features common to all such forms. Being a systematic enquiry, it requires careful planning of the orderly investigation process.

STAGES IN THE RESEARCH PROCESS:-

In planning and designing a specific research project, it is necessary to anticipate all the steps that must be undertaken if the project is to be successful in collecting valid and reliable information.

The steps of marketing research process are highlighted in the following flow diagram.

Page 32: Customer Satisfaction Project

The type of research conducted for this project was-

Descriptive Research Design:It includes surveys and fact finding enquiries of different kinds. It is a fact- finding investigation with adequate interpretation. It is the simplest type of research, and is more specific than an exploratory study, as it focuses on particular aspects of the problem being studied, so research design used for this project was descriptive research design.Descriptive research method was the best method applicable to the existing problem mentioned in this project report. Here the study is conducted to determine the fact i.e. to know the customer satisfaction about Om logistics Ltd.

METHODOLOGY USED FOR THE STUDY

Market Research to be an effective tool for analyzing the customer satisfaction for Manufacturing products. Usually it is said that if marketing would be a train, than market research would be the locomotive. In other words, market research should ideally be the starting point on any marketing exercise. Conducting any marketing exercise- is it related to pricing, promotion or distribution of a product or service. Without researching the potential market is as sensible as setting out sell sand in the Sahara Desert. Market research provides the answers to all the questions that generally occupy the minds of marketers, at every stage of the marketing process.

Sample Design

Sampling

An integral component of a research design is sampling plan. Specifically, it addresses three questions:

1) Whom to survey (the sample unit)?2) How many to survey (the sample size)? &3) How to select them (the sampling procedure)

Making the entire universe will be impossible on the account of limitation of time and money. Hence sampling becomes inevitable. A sample is only a portion of the universe of population.

According to Yule, “The object of sampling to get maximum information about the parent population with minimum efforts. Properly done procedures are the representative data of the entire population”.

Sampling Unit:- A decision has to be taken concerning a sample unit before selecting sample. Sample unit may be geographical one such as State, District and Village etc. The researcher will have to decide one or more unit that has to select for his study.

PERIOD OF STUDY:

Page 32

Page 33: Customer Satisfaction Project

The period of study has been from May 19th, 2015 to July 16th, 2015

In this Project report, the sampling unit includes the customers from Mumbai Region.

Sampling Methods

Probability sampling is known as random sampling or chance sampling. Under this sampling design every item of the universe has equal chance or probability.

Sample random sampling Systematic sampling Stratified sampling Cluster and Area sampling Sequential sampling Multi stage sampling

Non Probability Sampling is also known as deliberate sampling, purposive and judgmental sampling. Non probability samplings are those that do not provide every item in the universe with a known chance of being include in the sample. Non probabilities are of following types:

Convenience sampling Quota sampling Judgemental sampling Panel sampling

1. Sampling Technique : Random sampling.2. Sample size : 60 respondents 3. Method : Personal Interview.4. Tool use for interview : Structured questionnaire5. Data analysis method : Percentage, Tabulation and Graphical method6. Area of survey : Mumbai and its sub-urbans.

7. Charts : Bar charts and Pie charts.

SOURCES OF DATA

Page 33

Page 34: Customer Satisfaction Project

Two types of data helped in the completion of the project.

Primary dataPrimary data has been collected in only one way i.e. survey. About 60 customers participated in the survey. The data is collected from the buyers of Kohinoor Mech. Elect. & Engineering Works through one to one interaction with the Customers.

Secondary DataThe information about company’s Background, its products and services and key people is collected through company’s brochure and company’s officials.

SAMPLING TECHNIQUE USED

Judgmental sampling is the most appropriate for the project, as only the customers who are using the products can be the sample for the study.Judgmental sampling is one where the researcher chooses the sample based on who they think would be appropriate for the study.

DATA COLLECTION METHOD

Questionnaire method seemed most satisfactory for collecting information from the people. Data is collected by personally interviewing individuals, recording their answers in a structured questionnaire. A set of questions having different segments such as Product Performance, Service, and Perception etc. formed the questionnaire.

Scaling techniques used for preparing questionsGenerally the questions were designed with the Likert Scale, where the degree of options for the answer ranging from lowest to highest or vice-versa, with each option associated with a brief description.An example of the Likert scale is given below:

Eg. Que.- Rate the Performance of the TITANIC movie.a. Excellentb. Goodc. Averaged. Poore. Bad

Summary of research methodology

Page 35

Page 36: Customer Satisfaction Project

LIMITATIONS:-

1. As stipulated by the university regulations, the study is undertaken for a period of 52 days. This is very limited period.

2. When the user/buyer are busy we can‘t get accurate data from them. During survey some respondents may not give answer in a proper manner or might be their biasness is make some difference between the actual feedback and given feedback.

3. It is not possible to obtain some confidential data from the organization.

4. Limited time available for interviewing the respondents. As a result of this it was not possible to gather full information.

5. In the survey at many times, it was found that the customers’ relationship with service provider is not good because service provided by company is quite costly.

6. It is little bit costly and time consuming to collect primary data through face to face interaction with respondent.

SUGGESTIONS

The following are few suggestions from my point of view- Company should focus on price so that more customers buy from it.

Company should give more effort on product quality to increase the customers and to enhance the order.

Company should introduce some new products so that the customer will get more range of variety to select while purchasing.

Company should make their order processes more convenient for customers so that customer feels more convenient.

Company needs to improve upon their Packaging also because maximum customers neither agreed nor disagreed when we asked about the packaging of the company was up to the mark.

Company should also provide the detailed information about the product on packaging as maximum customers were mentioned this while doing the survey.

Company can also improve their services in terms of delivering the products and also make it more convenient to customers.

The customer problem should be solved on time as that would add more value to their assets.

Page 58: Customer Satisfaction Project

CONCLUSION

As from the entire study we came to know that, customers rely heavily on quality and if not provided with good quality to them they can shift to the other company.

Also reasonable price affects the buying process of Indian customers, as they want good quality in lesser price and Kohinoor Mech. Elect. & Engineering Works success is enviable.

As the packaging of Kohinoor Mech. Elect. & Engineering Works is average, but still maximum customers got satisfied as they were providing the customers with good quality, reasonable price, discount/offers, and also solving their problem very rapidly.

Also from the customer’s perspective, most of the customers were in a dilemma that they want to recommend the company’s product to others because they do not want to raise their competitor.

Customer Satisfaction depends heavily on the services that are offered to them.
