CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

INTRODUCTION

Brief of overview of study:-

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION: Customer satisfaction measures how well a company’s

products or services meet or exceed customer expectations. These expectations often reflects

many aspects of the company’s business activities including the actual product, service,

company, and how the company operates in global environment. Customer satisfaction

measures are an overall psychological evaluation that is based on the customer’s lifetime of

product and service experience.

IMPORTANCE OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

The importance customer satisfaction is apparent when you realize that, without

customers, you don’t have a business. A single unsatisfied customer can send more business

away from your company than 10 satisfied customers. The more focus on your customer

retention and customer support, the more long term business you’ll get. It’s worth it to focus

on customer satisfaction strategies, no matter how large or small your company is.

 Understanding the need of customer is critical.

A business relationship, just like any other relationship relationship, relies on both people

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

getting their needs met. No matter what type of business you are in, all customers want the

same thing. They want to feel welcomed and appreciated by you and your staff. They don’t

want to get the impression that they are just being used by you for money. Small interactions

like “Thank You” and a nice smile can go a long way toward customer satisfaction.

 Make sure your employees operate with the same principles.

A big part of customer satisfaction is reliability. If customers come to expect a certain

mode of behaviour from you and your employees, you should deliver it them to each and

every time. Customers want to be able to rely on you. They expect consistent delivery times (if

applicable) and support. By training your employees to treat all customers with same respect,

your customers will all have the same experience with your company, which will increase

customer satisfaction.

 Be honest when you don’t meet expectations:

Customer satisfaction is at its most important when something goes wrong in the chain

of delivery. Whether a customer was double charged or didn’t receive what she he ordered,

your employees need to handle the situation utmost care. Your employees should apologize

and take step to rectify the situation. The phrase “the customer is always right” is at the core of

a good customer satisfaction strategy. It doesn’t matter whether or not the customer misread

the the instructions or made made the mistake; your employees should take the steps to make

the customer happy.

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

 Customer satisfaction is the foundation of a goodbusiness.

Satisfied customers will make a great foundation for return business, and they may also

bring in their friends and associates. Remember that customers are the heart of any business.

Keep them satisfied, and encourage them to tell their friends about their experiences with your

business.

Satisfaction Measurement: Affective Measure of Customer Satisfaction

A customer’s attitude (liking/disliking) towards a product information or experience

whether perceived or real. Again, it is meaningful to measure attitudes towards a product or

service that a consumer has never used, but not satisfaction.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

A population of over 1 billion people and rising disposable income levels (per capita income

rose to ~Rs. 95000 or US$ 1301 in 2019 from ~Rs. 73000 or US$ 1000 in 2015) make India

one of the most lucrative markets for smartphones. The market has recorded a 10-fold

expansion from ~14.5 million shipments in 2011 to ~150 million in 2020. In 2020, the Indian

market declined by 4%, but still outperformed markets such as North America, Latin America

and Africa.

According to Counterpoint Research, smartphone shipments are estimated to reach 173

million in 2021, a ~14% increase from the 2020 figure. Buoyed by an improved economic

environment, the demand for smartphones in 2021 will be driven by elevated consumer

spending.

A few years ago, the market was dominated by Blackberry and Nokia. But now, the Chinese

brands, along with Samsung, have swarmed the market with cheaper smartphones. Xiaomi

holds the top position, with 28% shipment market share, followed by Samsung (18%), as of

the second quarter of 2021. A few of the notable Indian players include Micromax and Intex,

with Reliance soon launching its own androids martphone.

Trends in the Indian smartphones market Increasing sales through online

channel: With COVID-19- induced lockdowns, sale of smartphones through online channels

increased in 2020. According to IDC, online channels grew 12%YoY and contributed 48%

to the total sales in 2020. However, during the festive season (Diwali), footfalls in physical

stores picked up and offline channels clocked a 5% YoY growth in the fourth quarter of2020.

23

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

The trend of increasing online sale is expected to continue every year from 2022, driven by

improved digital infrastructure, surging internet usage and rising acceptance of e-commerce.

Increased usage of smartphones: Following the government curbs on social distancing and

lockdown, there was a 39% rise in the average time spent by an Indian user on a smartphone.

As per a report by App Annie, India stood third (4.6 hours a day) on the list of average time

spent by an average user on smartphones, with Indonesia (5.2 hours a day) and Brazil (4.8

hours a day) taking the top two spots worldwide.

The top apps accessed in India were Zerodha (financial services), WhatsApp (communication)

and Instagram (social media).

Demand for 5G phones to grow multi-fold: 5G smartphones accounted for <3% of the

overall market in 2020. Even without the 5G network roll-out, India has already become one

of the top markets for shipment of 5G smartphones. As 5G continues to be one of the top

desired features in a smartphone, total shipments of 5G smartphones in India is estimated

between 32 million and 40 million units in 2021. The cheapest 5G smartphone available in

the Indian market is priced at Rs. 15,000–16,000 (US$ 200– 220). Cheaper chipsets and

competition among device manufacturers are expected to further drive down the prices.

Key factors driving smartphone sales The constant need to stay connected has made

smartphones the most popular device not just in India, but worldwide. Communication on-the-

go has become a norm for people, especially for people in urban areas with busy lifestyles.

With rising disposable income levels and easy financing options (such as EMI), owning a

smartphone is no longer a luxury. This is a reality for a young country, such as India, with a

large working population. In addition, fierce competition among handset manufacturers and

technological innovations keeps driving down the prices of smartphones, boosting

24

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

affordability and sales growth.

With faster internet speed, consumption of online entertainment has skyrocketed. YouTube,

Netflix, Amazon Prime, and many others offer a host of entertainment options, which can be

easily accessed through smartphones. Not just entertainment, in a post COVID-19 era,

smartphones are being extensively used for online education and online shopping. Also, the

‘Digital India’ initiatives by the Indian government are paving the way for various mobile

apps and services. This will further spur usage and popularity of smartphones among Indians.

Major players in telecommunication with Apple and Samsung and their market share

Xiaomi

The Redmi Note 9 Series / Note 10 Series are killer phones for Xiaomi, and even the

affordable Xiaomi Redmi 9/9 prime and 9A/ 8/8A (sold more than 5 million units) is a growth

Interesting Facts about Samsung:

 Samsung was never about `electronics

In the initial days of the establishment, Samsung sold noodles and other associated products.

As noodles are a traditional food in Korea, it all started from noodle production. But it was

later in the 1970s when the second thought buzzed in. In the year 1970, Samsung produced its

first electrical product, which was eventually a 12-inch of black and white TV. Hence, then

only, following the steps, the production of electronics started.

 Samsung is a Self-Dependent company

While other electrical companies depend on other brands and companies for the accessories

and supporting products. It is Samsung which is very focused on creating the most possible

equipment in-house. Therefore, working tirelessly on fulfilling this aim, in the present time,

Samsung produces almost 90% of its goods. It all gets made in the Samsung factory and other

brands also sometimes buy it from Samsung.

 Samsung has a record of Employees

As we know, Samsung is a worldwide company, so Samsung has its manufacturing and sales

branches covering all the world. Hence, to team up well and for proper functioning,

Samsung employs a huge 4,89,000 employers in over 79 countries. And this number is a

record itself. No other brand has this number of employees working all around the world.

 What Samsung meant?

Every brand has its back story. And the back stories are really interesting. Similarly, the name

‘Samsung’ originated from a Korean word. In Korea, the word Samsung means a set of 3 stars

or ‘Tri-Star’. Defining the meaning of the 3 stars, the company explained, it means Powerful,

Big, and Gigantic. And, hopefully, they try every time to prove this in their every product.

 Samsung Love for South Korea

The relation between Samsung and South Korea is considered very strong and helpful. It is not

only like the company originated from South Korea, but it has also been fruitful to the country.

The country has gained almost 17 to 20 percent of the whole GDP, alone from this company

only. Samsung is the number one company, which earns revenue for South Korea. Hence, the

company has been a Gospel of Mammon for the country.

 Samsung's The first CDMA Phone

In this modern civilized society, high-speed networks like 4G and 5G are the only ones ruling

all over. While back in the 90s, CDMA technology was the only fastest-growing technology

available. And, it was Samsung which was the firstcompany to introduce a phone,

featuring CDMA technology. That phone was named as Samsung Stunt SCH-100 and it was

successful all the way. This phone was introduced in 1996.

 Samsung rejected Android OS

Everyone is concerned that; it is Google that owns the android at the moment. But back in the

year 2004, when Android developers were a startup, they pitched the idea to the Samsung
44

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

company. But at that time, Samsung didn’t like the idea and rejected it. But the android

developers met google after 2 weeks, and google was amused by the idea. Hence google

acquired it and launched it in 2005. Hence, it might be Samsung who would have owned and

dominated the smartphone business, if they would have not rejected it.

 Samsung story behind it'slogo

When the company was first introduced, it was introduced with a specific logo, back in 1938.

But after almost 20 years, the company again reframed its logo and again in the year 1970, for

unspecified reasons. And finally, the logo of the Samsung electronics got changed in 1980,

which is used till now. But later a new logo was introduced in 1993, which is being used in the

other products, like TVs, refrigerators, and smartphones.

 Samsung has it's own Font

Not every company has its own fonts to use. Samsung owns its own font and uses it in every

device. This font is named Samsung One and was released in the year 2016. One can find this

font in every Samsung product. It may be any smartphone or monitor.

 Samsung supplies products to rivals

Samsung not only manufactures its goods but also makes products for its rival companies. It

might sound a little weird, but it is true. It is believed that Samsung produces RAM, NAND

flash, and OLED displays for one of the leading smartphone companies, the iPhone. It’s the

reason Samsung earns around 110 dollars per iPhone X production.

CHAPTER 13: CONCLUSION

68

Amitkumar B. Gupta, BBA 3rd Year


G.S. College Of Commerce and Economics, Nagpur

CONCLUSION

SAMSUNG: To compete with Apple, Samsung should focus on increase its value proposition

in the smart phone market. Samsung could develop new products having stylish and modern

design in order to attract buyers who expect stylish, trendy and fashionable smart phones On

the other hand. Samsung should keep on producing the existing models of smart phones which

are relatively less costly to tap the middle class and lower upper class of population. A strong

focus on R&D and taking advantage of being the first mover in launching. As a result, the

market share of Samsung would increase and has more strength in the competition with Apple.

APPLE: From the result of the statistic tests, many Apple's user are trendy and some of them

are short-term user. In order to keep these customers. Apple should always produce new

products to avoid losing them.

Beside the result reveal that there is a relationship between age group of the interviewer and

the reasonable price they think. The lower age group of the reasonable price of a smart phone

they think Apple could attract young buyer by lowering its price for instance. Apple can

produce new smart phones with lower cost and hence to lower the price. As a result

Apple could increase its market share, even attract the users of different brands of smart

phone.

Apple's product line has grown rapidly in the past few years. What we have found to be

the most interesting about Apple is how they are very innovative and early adapters. Samsung

stands on the pillars of innovation and excellent customers services. Samsung and Apple have

a good market share but they have change their strategies for more coverage of market share.
