INTRODUCTION
A study on brand preference implies measure of brand loyalty in which a consumer will
choose a particular brand in presence of competing brands, but will accept substitutes if that
brand is not available. We have heard that the customer is always right. We may or may not
agree with that statement but every ought to agree that customers hold a very important places in
our lives. After all, without customers, people who buy our products and services, our businesses
close down and we all pack up to go home. We need to discover brand preference of particular
products and service. Using today’s technology, this can happen by using something as simple as
a feedback card, or by using an online service. Plenty of options exist.
After gathering information, analyze it. Ask tough question and arrive at the tough
answers. Change what is necessary to improve the customer service rating. The more one can
meet customer needs, the better chance for long-term success in their fast-paced, ever-changing
world. Customers form their expectation based on past buying experiences, advice to their
reference group and the promises of the marketer and their competitors. It becomes much easier
for a company to serve a delighted customer. A very satisfied customer will stay with the
company for many years and will bring more business to the firm.
The term marketing concept holds that achieving organizational goals depends on
knowing the needs and wants of target markets and delivering the desired satisfactions. It
proposes that in order to satisfy its organizational objectives, an organization should anticipate
the needs and wants of consumers and satisfy these more effectively than competitors.
Brand - a name, sign, symbol or design, or some combination of these, used to identify a
product and to differentiate it from competitors' products.

Branding has today a central role in marketing. Branding has in theory been focused on
brands of large corporations and consumer goods. The situation of branding in this study differs
from the traditional view. In this case is branding studied from the perspective of a small
company offering services for an industrial market. The key concepts of the study are identity,
image and positioning.
• Brand Equity is the value of a brand built up over a period of time. It is composed of four
components namely Image, Perception, Awareness and Loyalty. However some
researchers say that image and awareness are the main components and the other two get
covered in these two. To calculate brand equity, both the tangible(functional) and
intangible(emotional) attributes are measured. The end result of the measurement is brand
equity.
Brand Preference Selective demand for a company's brand rather than a product; the
degree to which consumers prefer one brand over another.
Kansai Nerolac Paint company Limited joint venture of the Tata Forbes and the Kansai
Paint Co. Ltd., Japan.
COMPANY PROFILE

Bombay. In 1930, three British companies merged to formulate Lead Industries Group Ltd. In
1933, Lead Industries Group Ltd. acquired entire share capital of Gahagan Paints in 1933 and
thus, Goodlass Wall (India) Ltd. was born.

PRODUCT PROFILE
What is Paint?
There's more to paint than meets the eye. Physically, paint is a mixture of four important
elements: Pigments, Additives, Binders and Solvents
Pigments render color and opacity to the paint.
Additives endow the paint with special properties such as resistance to fungus, rust etc.
Binders hold the paint together and also bind it to the surface being painted, thus
promoting durability.
Solvents give a paint its flowing property, enabling brushing/rolling on a surface.
Depending on the solvent used, paints can be categorized as water-based (where water is
the solvent), e.g. plastic emulsions and distempers or oil-based (where Thinner, a
petroleum by-product is the solvent) e.g. enamels and wood finishes.
Types of Finishes
When Surface Coatings (Top coat of Paint) dry, they produce films with varying degree
of sheen. The range extends from Flat or Matt finishes which have no sheen, through increasing
degree of Luster to high gloss finishes.
Based on the reflectance level of the dried film of paint we can classify the finish in to
following four heads:
8/8/2019 Rough Main Project Kansai
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/rough-main-project-kansai 17/91
Matt: It is the kind of finish, which has the lowest level of gloss. When the gloss on a panel
painted with a Matt finish paint is measured in a glossometer at 60-degree angle, the reading is
less than 5.
Egg Shell or Satin: This finish has silk like gloss, explains the name Satin finish. When the
gloss on a panel painted with a Satin finish paint is measured in a glossometer at 60-degree
angle, the reading is 6-20.
Semi-Gloss: This finish has more gloss than a satin finish. When the gloss on a panel painted
with a Semi-Gloss finish paint is measured in a glossometer at 60-degree angle, the reading is
21-70.
Glossy: This is the finish with highest level of gloss. When the gloss on a panel painted with a
Gloss finish paint is measured in a glossometer at 60-degree angle, the reading is more than 70.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
8/8/2019 Rough Main Project Kansai
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/rough-main-project-kansai 32/91
Brand Preference
“Customers buying products are buying utility, function, and performance as much as
image and status” (Terpstra and Sarathy, 1997, p. 375). Actually, Customer merchandise has
implications more than their utilitarian, functional, and commercial significance
(Czikszentmihalyi and Rochberg-Halton, 1981; Ericksen, 1996; Leigh and Gabel, 1992; Levy,
1959; Mick, 1986). Consumers do not “consume products for their material utilities but consume
the symbolic meaning of those products as portrayed in their images” (Elliot, 1997, p. 286).
Therefore, the acquired goods are not only “bundles of attributes that yield particular
benefits” (Holt, 1995, p. 1) but also indications of symbolic meanings to the public. Consumers
are more likely to use brands to express how they are either similar to or different from people of
their in-group (Markus and Kitayama, 1991).
Bhat and Reddy (1998) also reported that brands have practical and emblematic
importance for consumers. The emblematic importance, which is attached to brands, is often
broadcasted via the use and consumption of brands (Gottdeiner, 1985; McCracken, 1986).
Consequently, there seems to be a noteworthy relationship between brand images, consistent
with the emblematic importance of brands, and consumers’ self images (Zinkham and Hong,
1991). Individuals are more likely to buy brands whose personalities intimately match their own
self images (Schiffman and Kanuk, 2000). Similarly, consumers express themselves by selecting
brands whose personalities are recognized to be consistent with their own personalities (Aaker,
1999; Kassarjian, 1971; Sirgy, 1982).
In many circumstances, consumers’ self image influences his/her purchase decisions
(Zinkham and Hong, 1991) In other words, consumers use products to illustrate, maintain, and
reinforce their self concepts to themselves (Sirgy, 1982; Wallendorf and Arnould, 1988;
Zinkham and Hong, 1991). Therefore, “purchase and consumption are good vehicles for self-
expression” (Jamal and Goode, 2001, p. 483).
Previous research indicated that self image/self expression affect consumers’ product
preferences and their purchase intentions (Ericksen, 1996; Mehta, 1999). For example, Ericksen
(1996) found a significant relationship between self image and intention to buy an American
automobile (Ford Escort). Based on this finding, it might be inferred that “individuals prefer
brands that have images compatible with their perceptions of self” (Jamal and Goode, 2001, p.
483; Belk, et. al., 1982; Ericksen, 1996; Solomon, 1983; Zinkham and Hong, 1991). Moreover,
8/8/2019 Rough Main Project Kansai
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/rough-main-project-kansai 33/91
this self image consistency strengthen positive attitude toward products and brands (Ericksen,
1996; Sirgy, 1982, 1985, 1991; Sirgy, et. al., 1997). Specifically, “the more similar a consumer’s
self-image is to the brand’s image, the more favorable their evaluations of that brand should be”
(Graeff, 1996, p. 5).
Brand preference has been conceptualized in many ways in the marketing literature. In
some studies, brand preference has been equated with brand loyalty (e.g., Rundle-Thiele and
Mackay 2001). In other studies, it has been evaluated as a precursor to brand loyalty (e.g., Odin
et al. 2001). In this study, we consider brand preference as a precursor to brand loyalty. Brand
preference is typically viewed as an attitude in which the consumer has a predisposition toward
one or more brands. Ben-Akiva et al. (1999) define preferences as “comparative judgments
between entities.” We use this definition as a basis for distinguishing brand preference as a
comparative judgment between a set of brands which leads to a more favorable attitude toward
one or more of the brands.In contrast, brand loyalty is viewed as a combination of attitude and behavior where a
professed commitment toward a brand is manifested in repeat purchasing of the brand. Jacoby
and Kyner (1973, p. 2) define brand loyalty as: “(1) the biased (i.e., nonrandom), (2) behavioral
response (i.e., purchase), (3) expressed over time, (4) by some decision-making unit, (5) with
respect to one or more alternative brands out of a set of such brands, and (6) is a function of
psychological (decision-making, evaluative) processes.” This widely accepted definition
encompasses behavioral and attitudinal components, stating both must be present since neither is
sufficient on its own. Further, the definition allows for loyalty to multiple brands.
Does brand preference necessarily lead to brand loyalty or repeated purchase of the preferred
brand? Empirical results have shown that the answer is no. Allenby and Lenk (1995) conclude
that “consumer preferences for brands are not nearly as entrenched as might be expected.” Their
research shows that promotional activities such as feature ads, displays, and price cuts can have a
significant effect on whether or not buyers follow through with their preferences. Additional
reasons (other than promotions) why consumers may purchase other brands despite a stated
brand preference include a desire to try and learn more about different brands in the category;
changing needs or situations; variety seeking; and changes in the available alternatives due to
new products or improvements to existing products (Coulter et al. 2003).
Despite the extensive literature on search, only three studies empirically investigate the
brand loyalty-search relationship, and only one study could be found that addresses the brand
8/8/2019 Rough Main Project Kansai
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/rough-main-project-kansai 34/91
preference-search relationship. For brand loyalty, only one of the studies finds the hypothesized
negative, significant relationship between brand loyalty and search. Bennett and Mandell (1969)
find this relationship between loyalty and search for the product category automobiles (p≤ 0.05),
using a behavior-based measure of loyalty (number of prior purchases of a brand and the
sequence of prior purchases). In contrast, Kiel and Layton (1981) do not find a significant
relationship between a similar behavioral measure of loyalty (repurchase of the same brand) andsearch time or search activity for the same category of cars. In another context, Jacoby et al.
(1978) evaluated the brand loyalty-search relationship for breakfast cereals. In this study, both an
attitude-based and a purchase-based measure of brand loyalty were used. Their findings show no
540 relationship between the purchase-based measure of brand loyalty and search (p=0.59) and
only a questionable relationship between the attitudinal measure of brand loyalty (p = 0.06). As
such, the literature provides at best weak support for the hypothesis that brand loyalty reduces
search. Despite this limited support, the marketing literature concludes that brand loyalty
decreases search effort (e.g., Gwinner et al. 1998). In fact, Sheth and Parvatiyar (1995, p. 256)
claim that “the fundamental axiom of relationship marketing is, or should be, that consumers like
to reduce choices by engaging in an ongoing loyalty relationship with marketers.”
