INTRODUCTION The concept of marketing came in India very late. Though we are known lot

about the theoretical part of it. The theoretical importance was left by the

Indian industries when they came to know about the competition with the

multinational companies functioning in India also exporting our products in

abroad.

The essence marketing is an exchange or a transaction, intended to satisfy

human needs or wants. That is, marketing is a human activity directed at

satisfying needs and wants, through an exchange process. A demand is a

want for which the consumer is prepared to pay a price. A want is anything

or a service the consumer desires or seeks. Wants become demands when

backed by purchasing power. A need is anything the consumer feels to keep

himself alive and healthy. A transaction consists of a value between two

parties. A transaction differs from a transfer. A transfer may receive nothing

in return. The aim of marketing is to make sales in order to earn reasonable

profit for the producer.

MEANING

The marketing occupies an important position in any business units.

Traditional view of marketing is the customer wants whatever the seller

presents to them. The main objective is to manufacture the things without

considering the need and want of consumer wants. Several authors have

defined term marketing.

DEFINATION

“Marketing includes those business activities which goods are involved in

the flow of goods and services from production to consumption” – Converse

- 4 -

Page 5: Marketing Strategy Samsung

“Marketing is the business process by which products are matched with

market and through which transfer of ownership are effected.” Cundiff.

Previously market was considered to be a place where buyers and sellers

would meet. But market dose not necessarily mean a place. According to

Barwell, marketing consists of identifying, anticipating and satisfying

customer needs and desires. According to Stanton, “marketing is the creation

and delivery of a standard of living; it is finding out what customer wants,

then planning and developing a product of service that will satisfy those

wants; and then determining the best way to price, promote and distribute

that product or service,” Peter Drucker observes that the purpose of business

is to create a customer by which he lays stress on two aspects: (a)

identification of consumer needs and (b) organizing the business to meet

these needs. The modern concept focused on the consumer and their

satisfaction. The approach of modern marketing is consumer-oriented

instead of solely product-oriented.

OBJECT OF MARKETING :

1. Intelligent and capable application of modern marketing policies.

2. To develop the marketing field.

3. To develop guiding policies and their implementation for a good

result.

4. To suggest solution by studying the problems relating to marketing.

5. To find sources for further information con

6. To revive existing marketing function, if shortcomings are found.

7. To take appropriate actions in the course of actions.

INTRODUCTION OF TOPIC This Projects is concerned with studying marketing strategy “SAMSUNG

LCD, LED in Gondia City. “

When someone wants to buy the LCD, they look towards the specialties,

benefits and value added services. From this project one can also determine

the factor that influences the customer the most. We can also find out the

buying behavior of consumer. This project will also check the consumer

satisfaction level that is using the services of different service providers.

This project is also concerned with understanding the various promotional

strategies adopted by the LCD, LED TV market leaders i.e. SAMSUNG. we

can evaluate the customer’s level by this project.

Every business organization that comes into contact with the customer

develops a perception in the mind of the customer. Today, in this

competitive world every organization needs to know the perception in the

mind to the customers. In order to gain mind share or heart share of

customers along with the market share is the main lookout for the

organizations. Especially in consumer electronics sector, where the products

are more or less same, the only way to leave positive impact on customer’s

mind and to gain competitive advantage is providing best possible services

to the customers.

INTRODUCTION ABOUT SAMSUNG COMPANY

Samsung ins Korean company that has risen to prominence in many fields over the years. The size and to scope of the company is almost unimaginable, as they are one of the largest and most diverse companies in the world. While the company is mostly known for their technology division (cell phones, radios, MP3 Players, computer screens, and the like) they have many other divisions as well.

The company has expanded form a humble storefront storefront launched in the late 1930s to the largest company in Korea and the second largest company in the world. In addition to the electronics division, which is the most profitable and successful one in the world, the company also has forayed into finance, chemicals, retail, and straight-up entertainment – all with great degrees of success. The company employs many of south Korea’s finest employees, including many with PHD level education. This is not surprising, seeing as the company’s assets total somewhere around 300 billion. The company has some of the most loyal employees around and many work every day – that means on holiday time off or weekends – both because they want to and it is expected. However, it is important to note the company is responsible for at least 1/5 of the Country’s exports. As a result, they are in a position of power because of the money they supply to the government. Additionally, their vast number of employees is essential to the country’s economy.

Page 13: Marketing Strategy Samsung

The company has been around for quite some time, and although there has

been some controversy about their strength and power in South Korea, there

is no denying that they benefit the economy greatly by providing jobs,

exporting their services, and otherwise doing things that smaller companies

would not be equipped to do. Samsung is a powerhouse of a company, with

many people worldwide using their products, particularly the electronics

such as cell phones and MP3 players. It’s not surprising that the company

continues to thrive in the ways it does.

Founded in 1938, Samsung is currently the world’s leading consumer

electronics brand. The massive south Korean conglomerate entered the

television market in 1972 and began making flat panel TVs in 1999.

DESCRIPTIONBASIC LCD CONCEPTS

LCD televisions produce a colored

image by selectively filtering a

white. The light is typically

provided by a series of cold cathode

fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) at the

back of the screen, although same

displays use white or colored LEDs

instead. Millions of individual LCD

shuters arranged in a grid, open and

close to allow a metered amount of the white light through. Each shutter is

paired with a colored filter to remove all but the red, green or blue (RGB)

portion of the light from the original white source. Each shutter-filter pair

forms a single sub-pixel. The sub-pixels are so small that when the display is

viewed from even a short distance, the individual colors blend together to

produce a single spot of color, a pixel. The shade of color is controlled by

changing the relative intensity of the light passing through the sub-pixels.

Liquid crystals encompass a wide range of (typically) rod-shaped polymers

that naturally form into thin layers, as opposed to the more random

alignment of a normal liquid. Some of these, the nematic liquid crystals, also

show an alignment effect between the layers. The particular direction of the

alignment of a nomadic liquid crystal can be set by placing it in contact with

an alignment layer or director, which is essentially a material with

microscopic groves in it. When placed on a director, the layer in contact will

align itself with the grooves, and the layers above will subsequently align

- 14 -

Page 15: Marketing Strategy Samsung

themselves with the layers below, the bulk material taking on the director’s

alignment. It the case of an LCD, this effect is utilized by using two

directors arranged at right angles and placed close together with the liquid

crystal between them. This forces the layers align themselves in two

directions, creating a twisted structure with each layer aligned at a slightly

different angle to the ones on either side.

LCD shutters consist of a stack of three primary elements. On the bottom

and top of the shutter are polarizer plates set at (typically) right angles.

Normally light cannot travel through a pair of polarizer’s arranged in this

fashion, and the display would be black. The polarizer’s also carrying the

directors to create the twisted structure aligned with the polarizer’s on either

side. As the light flows out of the rear polarizer, it will naturally follow the

liquid crystal’s twist, exiting the front of the liquid crystal having been

rotated through the correct angle that allows it to pass through the front

polarizer. LCDs are normally transparent.

To turn a shutter off, an electrical voltage is applied across it from front to

back. When this happens, the rod-shaped molecules align themselves with

the electric field instead of the directors, destroying the twisted structure.

The light on longer changes polarization as it flows through the liquid

crystal, and can no longer pass through the front polarizer. By controlling

the voltage applied across the crystal, the amount of remaining twist can be

finely selected. This allows the transparency or opacity of the shutter to be

accurately controlled. In order to improve switching time, the cells are

placed under pressure, which increases the force to re-align themselves with

the directors when the field is turned off.

- 15 -

Page 16: Marketing Strategy Samsung

Several other variations and modifications have been used in order to

improve performance in certain applications. In-Plane Switching displays

(IPS and S-IPS) offer wider viewing angles and better color reproduction,

but are more difficult to construct and have slightly slower response times.

IPS displays are used primarily for computer monitors. Vertical Alignment

(VA, S-PVA and MVA) offer higher contrast ration and good response

times, but suffer from color shifting when viewed from the side. In general,

all of these displays work in a similar fashion by controlling the polarization

of the light source.

LED TV Features

LED TV is actually just a

development of the conventional

sleek LCD flat screens we all

know and love. LED TVs are

basically LCD TVs with one

significant difference - they use

Light Emitting Diodes (LED) to

backlight the screen.

To work, all LCD TV need to be

backlit. Up to now LCD TVs have used old-school fluorescent-type

backlighting. LED TV refers to a LCD flat screen incorporating LED

technology to backlight the screen.

And why have the boffins decided to go down this route? Well, there are

significant benefits when using LED technology. For starters the latest

designs, such as Samsung LED TVs, can be incredibly thin and even more

gorgeous than normal LCDs. And there are massive performance

improvements: colours tend to be much more dynamic; blacks are much

darker; and colour saturation tends to be more balanced. LED TVs also

consume less energy, so they get the green thumbs up to boot.

LED TV achieves all this by ditching the fluorescent backlighting systems

found in the conventional LCD TVs, which tend to involve just one lamp. In

its place hundreds of smaller LED lights are placed behind the screen (this is

- 17 -

Page 18: Marketing Strategy Samsung

called 'full array' or 'direct' LED TV) each of which can be separately

controlled

The beauty of this approach is when a picture contains extremes of light and

dark, the presence of a single light source (as in a conventional LCD) limits

the extent to which you can recreate extremes of bright and shade, in other

words contrast. Not so with LED TV.

It's possible to have LEDs switched off and others going at full tilt right next

to each other on the same panel - a process called local dimming. This

results in much deeper blacks and much brighter whites coexisting within a

single frame. LED TV reviews continually refer to this significantly

improved contrast ratio. As well as improved contrast, LED TVs also deliver

better blacks, as you can simply turn off the LEDs when a scene from a film

requires complete darkness. Magic.

Another approach to LED television sees the LEDs placed around the edge

of the screen, with their light shining across the back of the screen until it's

bounced out toward the viewer by an array of appropriately angled mirrors.

This approach is favored by the likes of Samsung LED TVs. This allows

manufacturers to build incredibly slim housings making LED televisions

outrageously thin. There are even claimed performance benefits.

And just to be clear, LED TVs are vastly different from the self-illuminating

OLED TVs, which use pixel by pixel lighting.

SAMSUNG HISTORY

In 1938 the Samsung's founder Byung-Chull Lee set up a trade export

company in Korea, selling fish, vegetables, and fruit to China. Within a

decade Samusng had flour mills and confectionary machines and became a

co-operation in 1951. Humble beginnings.

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.

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.

In 1993 Samsung developed the 'lightest' mobile phone of its era. The SCH-

800 and it was available on CDMA networks.

Then they developed smart phones and a phone combined mp3 player

towards the end of the 20th century. To this date Samsung are dedicated to

the 3G industry. Making video, camera phones at a speed to keep up with

consumer demand. Samsung has made steady growth in the mobile industry

and are currently second but competitor Nokia is ahead with more than

100% increase in shares.

Aesthetically, the UE40B7020 is almost

as pretty as its more expensive sibling.

Again it's the screen's remarkable

slimness that first catches the eye; thanks

to its use of edge-mounted LED

backlighting, it's under 30mm deep at its

deepest point - a particularly startling

achievement when you consider that

Samsung has somehow managed to fit digital and analogue tuners into such

a tiny space. Suddenly all those arguments we've heard from manufacturers

who say you have to use external tuner boxes with super slim TVs seem

rather less convincing.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research may be defined as a scientific and a systematic search for

information on a specific topic. Research is an art of scientific investigation.

Search of information may be known as DATA.

Research in common parlance refers to research for knowledge. For some

people, research means “a careful investigation or inquiry specially through

search for new facts in any branch of knowledge”. While some people

consider research as movement, a movement from known to unknown. More

specific definition of research is “it is a systematized effort of gain new

knowledge.

Research is an academic activity and such terms should be used in a

technical sense. According to Clifford, research comprises defining and

redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested solution,

collecting, organizing and evaluating data, making deduction and reaching

conclusion and last carefully testing the conclusion to determine whether

they are fit the formulating hypothesis.

Research is thus an original contribution to the existing stock of knowledge

making for its advancement.

LIMITATION

LIMITATIONS

- 45 -

Page 46: Marketing Strategy Samsung

There are bound to be certain limitations in carrying out this research work

sampling error, time bounding, personal bias, etc. but an effort is made to

obtain maximum authentic results.

The limitations are as follow:

The study was largely dependent upon the interviews (questionnaire) with

the students so it might have decreased the efficiency of the project.

1. Time frame :

This is a time bound project as television industry is dynamic in

nature. Telecom industries come up with the new plans, offers and

schemes every day.

2. Area bound:

This project study was focused on Gondia district only. So the

situation might be different in other areas of universe.

3. The survey is subjected to statistical error.

4. Data collected through questionnaire was qualitative date which may

differ from person to person.

5. Above all, human error may also be present as it is the biggest

limitation of any study.
