ADVERTISMENT INDUSTRY IN INDIA

The Indian advertising industry has evolved from being a small-scaled business to a full-
fledged industry. The advertising industry is projected to be the second fastest growing
advertising market in Asia after China. It is estimated that by 2018, the share of ad spend
in Indias Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will be around 0.45 per cent.
The Indian government has given tremendous support to the advertising and marketing
industry. Advertising expenditure is likely to increase in the financial sector, driven by
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) policies which could result in a more favourable business
environment. Also, proposed licences for new banks and better market sentiments render
the advertising and marketing industry in India a fertile space.
Market size
Print contributes a significant portion to the total advertising revenue, accounting for
almost 41.2 per cent, whereas TV contributes 38.2 per cent, and digital contributes 11
per cent of the total revenue. Outdoor, Radio and Cinema make up the balance 10 per
cent.
Indias digital advertisement market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth
rate (CAGR) of 33.5 per cent to cross the Rs 25,500 crore (US$ 3.8 billion) mark by
2020.*
The Internet's share in total advertising revenue is anticipated to grow twofold from eight
per cent in 2013 to 16 per cent in 2018. Online advertising, which was estimated at Rs
2,900 crore (US$ 435 million) in 2013, could jump threefold to Rs 10,000 crore (US$ 1.5
billion) in five years, increasing at a compound annual rate of 28 per cent.

INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC

A consumer is the central point in business. Now a days attracting & satisfying
customers is the most difficult than producing the goods. For any products, many brands
are available in the market. Every company wants to increase its market share. Now
buyers dominate the market. So sellers have to make a lot of efforts to attract & to
persuade the persons to purchase its products & services. Advertising is an important
means to influence consumers attitude & purchase behavior. Advertising increases
brand familiarity, develop brand image & helps the organization in increasing its market
share. Advertising is to invest resources in purchase time or space in mass media such as
T.V, Radio, and newspapers, magazines that helps to promote the companys product or
services.

MEANING OF ADVERTISING:
The term advertising is derived from L1atin word averters, which means to turn
attention towards a specific thing. The dictionary meaning of the word advertising is to
announce publicly or to give public notice. In other words, it may be interpreted as to
attract the attention of the people concerned to a specific thing, which has been
announced, by the advertiser. In this way advertising is turning the attention of the
people towards product, services, and ideas by an identified sponsor.
The simplest meaning of an advertisement is that it is a public announcement. In
earlier times, to advertise meant to announce publicly. Some advertisements even today
just inform the public for example: - classified advertisements give information about
sale of second hand vehicles, property accommodation, matrimonial, public notice,
tender notice, recruitment advertisement etc.
The aim of every business is to earn a profit & this aim can casualty be achieved
by selling goods at reasonable prices. The sales are possible only if the target audience
knows about the availability of goods & they are persuaded to buy it. All this is possible
through advertising which is deliberately action to popularize the product or service.

MEASURING ADVERTISING EFFECTIVENESS

All Advertising efforts are directed mainly towards the achievements of business,
marketing and advertising objectives i.e. to increase the sales turnover and thus to market
the maximum profit. The advertiser spend lakhs of rupees into this advertising activity.
In the background of all these efforts, is an attempt to attract the customer towards the
product through advertising.
The effectiveness of advertising in a particular media may also be measured
in any of the following ways:

By giving different address to different media.


Different newspaper may be selected for advertisements of different departments.
Coupon blank etc. may be provided with the advertisements.
Enquiry from consumers should mention the name of the source of information. The
technique is known as keying the advertising.

Role Of Measuring Advertising Effectiveness


We allocate a huge budget to our advertising activity. The main objective of
this allocation is to increase sales & profits of the firm. The multivariable forces
influencing sales make it almost impossible to measure high precision the sales effect of
advertising. Consequently to most advertising research measures the characteristics of an
advertisement such as exposure, the ability of receiver to comprehend, retain and believe
in advertisement. If all of these characteristics are present in an advertisement, it can be
inferred that the advertisement is effective in generating sales. Measuring the
effectiveness, however is not an easy task. It still a complex problem and no scientific
method can be applied precisely particularly, in India conditions in which the advertising
industry is growing because its problems are closely related to the economics and culture
problems of the country.

IMPORTANCE OF MEASURING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ADVERTISING
To Get the Cost Benefit of Advertising :
The Cost of advertising is mounting day by day and consequently
profits are being squeezed. So, the top management should be concerned about the
cost benefits of advertising in various items of expenditure in the balance sheet of the
company, the contribution of which cannot be measured in term of sales or
profitability. Its contribution in terms of sales or profitability can only be estimated to
a reasonable extent. Due to high costs of materials and wages, strangulated by higher
over-heads & taxes, the management is reasonable in not approving any expenditure
on advertisement which is not likely to bring in additional sale, resulting in additional
profits. The main concept is that additional cost of advertising must produce
additional profit &, therefore, the advertising should prove its contribution in total
marketing efforts like any others allocation of corporate resources or else the
advertising expenditure will be set arbitrarily or be slashed drastically. So, if the
management measures the effectiveness of the advertising campaign, it should
compare the cost with the contribution received. The cost must be linked with the
benefits derived, if contribution of any advertising campaign is higher, it means the
cost benefits are higher and advertisement is effective.
To Justify the Investment in Advertising :
The expenditure on advertisements is considered to be an investment. In any
investment decision planning, there is always a statement of objectives which are spelt
out in detail, together with the nature and size of the return expected on investment. The
case of investment in advertising is no more different. Advertising is a marketing
investment and its objectives should be spelt out in similar manner, clearly indicating the
results expected from the campaign. The rate and size of the return should be determined
in advance. If the expected rate of return is achieved in terms of additional profits, the
advertisement can be considered an effective one. In order to justify the investment in
advertising, the management makes an attempt to measure the effectiveness of the
advertisement.

To Compare the Results with the Objectives and Goals :


Advertising objectives and goals and two distinct terms must be
distinguished. An objective is a broad aim; a goal is specific and quantified objective.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


The objective is not measurable where as the goal is. Generally, the objective of
advertising are warded vaguely in general terms such as to increase sales or profits
or to expand our market share to maintain a favorable attitude of the company and
its product. Evaluation of these objectives is not possible. If these objectives are
stated in terms of the quantity or the amount of sales or percentage of total market
shares these are measurable in terms and effectiveness can be measured. If the goal
have been achieved the advertising may be said to be effective. The results are
compared with the goals and if the actual performance is better, the advertising is
effective otherwise, it is ineffective.

To Know the Communication Effect :


The effectiveness of the advertisement can be measured in terms of
communication effects on target consumers or audience. The main purpose of
advertising is communicated the general public, and existing and prospective
consumers, various information about the product and the company. It is therefore,
desirable to seek post measurements of advertising in order to determine whether
advertisements have been seen or heard or in others words they have communicated
the theme, message of appeal of the advertising. Clearly if the advertisements are not
seen or heard or are low in communication ability relative to advertisements for
comparable products, the advertising is probably is ineffective and change is called
for. It is not enough that advertising is seen or heard, the advertiser needs also to
know the degree to which prospects retain messages and have been induced to
develop favorable attitudes towards the product advertised. Thus, if the
advertisements succeed in communicating the desired information and developing
the favorable attitude, the advertising is effective.

Compare Two Markets :


Advertisers frequently seek to evaluate alternatives types and amounts of
advertising by experiments is so-called test markets and results are contrasted with
other markets- so called control markets- which have been had the regular advertising
programme. The measurements made to determine results may be measurements of
change in sales, change in consumer attitude, change in dealer display, and so on
depending upon the objectives sought by the advertisers. Although experimentation

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


in test markets provides an excellent means for testing alternative advertising
approaches to see if they are effective in actual operations, the measurements made
are actually measurements of the effectiveness of the sales promotional programme
as a whole rather than measurements of the effectiveness of the advertising itself.

Basis of Planning :
Measuring the effectiveness of the advertising is done with a view to improve
the advertising plan by having a comparative view of the objectives set out in the plan
and the objectives or goals achieved during the course of execution of the plan. If the
achievement is higher an attempt should be made to maintain the position and if there is
an unfavorable attitude, this should be avoided by making the necessary adjustments in
the goals or by improving the functioning of the various activities. These variations-
favorable or unfavorable may form the basis of the new advertising plan. Variation is
must and it should be located properly and then corrective steps should be taken. Thus
measuring the effectiveness is necessary for the planning.

Thus, we can conclude that measurement of effectiveness of advertising is


necessary otherwise the whole planning process will be disturbed. For this purpose,
many tests and surveys are conducted, necessary data are collected and are used
extensively in the decision making process. On the basis of the information collected
during the course of surveys, necessary so that it may fetch the maximum out of its
limited resources.

i. Before after with Control Group Design


This classic design uses several test and control cities. In this design two types of
cities are selected. Cities in which advertising campaigns are affected may be named as
test cities and other cities may be called central cities.
First of all, the normal sales level is calculated for both types of cities prior
to advertising campaigns, and then the advertising campaigns is presented to test cities
and not the central cities. The effect of advertising campaign, can then, be measured by
subtracting the amount of post campaign figure of sales from the pre campaign sale
figures in test cities

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


A BEFORE-AFTER WITH CONTROL GROUP FOR MEASURING THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS.

Test Cities Control Cities

Pre Campaign Measure of Sales YES YES

Advertising Campaign YES NO

Post Campaign Measure of Sales YES YES

The Difference of post and pre campaign sales in cities is the result of
advertising and all others factors that affects the sales. In control cities, the difference of
these two sales shows the affect of other factors except advertising. By subtracting the
sales differences in the control cities from those in test cities, a tolerably accurate
estimate can be gathered of the effect of advertising only on sales provided that the test
and the control cities are reasonably comparable.

ii. Multivariable Experimental designs


While the experimental design yields a reasonably accurate estimate of the effects
of the advertising on sales, it not successful in explaining the success or failure of the
campaign itself. Multivariable designs produces these explanations and are, therefore
used by some very large firms because of their diagnostic value. Fig below shows the
multivariable design.

(The Figure Shown in Brackets shows the areas number)

The power of this multivariable factorial design is explained by G.H. Brown,


former Fords Director of Marketing Research. For any single medium, eight possible
geographic areas have been exposed and eight have not been exposed. Thus in this
experimental model it is possible to evaluate how each individual medium behaves alone
and in all possible combinations with other media.

Mr. Brown, has explained the functioning of this model as follows:


If identical dollar expenditure (at national rates) are established for each medium, areas
1 will share no advertising expenditures; areas 2, 3, 5, and 9 will receive advertising
expenditure at the same dollar rates; areas 4, 6, 7, 10, 11 and 13 will receive advertising
at twice this dollar rate; area 8, 12, 14 and 15 at three times the dollar rate; and area 16 at
four times this dollar expenditure.

This type of factorial design is capable of measuring the effectiveness of all


combination of media used, as well a four different levels, of advertising expenditures.
For these reasons, it is a very efficient design. However the complexities and the costs
involved make it impractical for all except very big advertiser.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


Indirect Measure:
As it is very difficult to measure the effect of advertising on companys
profits or sales, most firms rely heavily on indirect measures. These measures do not
evaluate the effect of advertisements directing on sales or profits but all other factors
such as customers awareness or attitude or customer recall of advertising message affect
the sale or profits or goals of the business indirectly. The assumption of these measures
is that favorable change in customer awareness, attitude and recall will lead in some way
or the other to the attainment of greater sales and profits or whatever is the primary
object of these marketing an corporate strategy. This assumption, in turn, is based upon
universal human behavior that is by no mean firmly established. It is quite obvious if we
make a house wife aware of the brand, she will not necessarily go for the purchase of
brand immediately. If she buys the brand, it may not be due to the advertisement. There
may be certain other factors that instigate him to buy the product.

Despite the uncertainties about the relationship between the intermediate effects
of advertising and the ultimate results, there is no other alternative but to use indirect
measures. The most commonly measures are:

Exposure to Advertisement

In order to be effective, the advertisement must gain exposure.


The management is concerned about the number of target audience who sees or hears the
organization message set in the advertisement. Without exposure, advertisement is bound
to failure.

Marketers or advertiser may obtain an idea of exposure generated by the


medium by examining its circulation or audience data which reveal the number of copies
of the magazine, newspaper or journal sold the number of persons passing the billboards
or riding in transit facilities, or the number of persons living in the television viewing or
radio listening area, and the number of persons switching on their T.V and radio sets at
various points of time. This number can be estimated by interviewing the numbers of the
audience for different media.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


The audience and circulation data, as collected by the advertiser, may be further
classified by such variables as the age, income, occupation and areas of residence of the
audience or reader population and the advertiser can estimate the approximate number of
target consumers that are exposed to advertising messages. Another means of gauging
exposure is readership or listener surveys in which interviewers ask the listener or reader
whether they have read or viewed the advertisements.

Attention or Recall of Advertising Message Content

This is one of the widely used measure of advertising results. Under


this measure, a recall of the message content among a specified group or groups
of prospective customers is measured within 24 hours of the Exposure of the
advertisement.

Attention value is the chief quality of the advertising copy the


advertisements cannot be said to be effective unless they attract the attention of
the target consumers. There are two methods for evaluation the attention getting
value of advertisements. One is Pre-Test and the other is Post-Test

In a Pre-Test evaluation, the consumers are asked to indicate the


extent to which they recognize or recall the advertisement, they have already
seen. This test is conducted in the laboratory setting. Here consumers read, hear
or listen to the advertisement and then researchers ask question regarding the
advertisement just to test the recall and then evaluate it.

In Post-Test method, the consumers are asked questions about the


indication of recognition or recall after the advertisement has been run.

These measures assume that customers can recall or recognize what they
have viewed or listened to. Various mechanical devices are being used in the
western countries which provide indices of attention such as eye-cameras etc.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


Brand Awareness
The marketers who rely heavily on advertising often appraise its
effectiveness by measuring the customers awareness about the particular product or
brand. The assumption of this type of measure is that there is a direct relationship
between the advertisements and the awareness. This type of measure is also subject to
the same criticisms as is applicable to direct measures of effectiveness measures because
awareness is also not the direct result of the advertisements. It is also effected by many
others factors. But, for new products, changes in awareness can often be attributed to the
influences of advertising.

Comprehension
Consumers generally use advertisements as a means of obtaining
information about the product, brand or the manufacturer. They cannot be
informed unless they comprehend the message. Various tests for valuating
comprehension are available.
One is recall tests- an indicator of comprehension because it is evident
that consumers of this variable is to ask questions about subjects how much they
have comprehended a message they have recently heard or seen. One may
employ somewhat imprecise test of the comprehension of a newspaper and radio
advertisement. One may ask typical target consumers from time to time such
questions like what did you think of our new commercial? and Did it get the
message across ?.The answers of these questions will provide sufficient insight
into advertising decisions making.

Attitude Change
Since advertising is considered to be one way of influencing the state of
the mind of the audience towards a product, services or organization, the results
are very often measured in terms of attitudes among groups exposed to
advertising communication. Several measures are used ranging from asking the
questions about willingness to buy the likelihood of buying to the measurement
of the extent to which specific attributes are associated with a product.
This involves the measurements of attitude of the customers towards the
product, service or organization in question both before and after the appearance

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


of the advertising. This may be a pretest or post test efforts. For gauging the
attitude changes, attitude scales are used .A typical scale contains questions like
:-
NIRMA Detergents is:-
Expensive------------- Inexpensive
Strong------------- Weak.
A Good Brand------------- A poor Brand.

The measuring instrument normally contains 51-20 scales. These techniques


(Called a semantic technique) provide a useful means of measuring attitudes in
short period of time. Others methods of measuring attitudes change are recall and
enquires. The assumption underlying these methods are that consumers generally
recall or inquire about what they prefer or to which they have a favorable attitude.

Action
One objective of advertisement may be assumed to be to stimulate action
or behavior. The action or intention to take an action may be measured on the
intention to buy measuring instrument. Under this type of measure, consumers
are asked to respond why they are interested in purchasing the product or brand.
Their responses may include such points as the following regarding the product
under consideration-
I already own it.
I have no intention to buy the product.
I hope to buy it soon or within a year.
I will probably buy it sometimes in the future.
I am sure, I will never buy it.

The classification and analysis of such responses will show the extent of the
intention of consumer towards the action they had in mind about the product and are
indicative of expected future purchasing activities.
One type of action that advertisers attempt to induce is buying behavior. The
assumption is that if an increase in sales follows a decrease in advertising expenditure,

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


the change in sales levels are good indicators of the effectiveness of advertising. Logic
suggests that measurement of sales is preferable to other measurements.

Thus, these above measures are used to evaluate the effectiveness of the
advertisements. It seems from the analysis of the above methods of measuring
effectiveness that directly or indirectly changes in sales or profits are taken as the
measuring rod of effectiveness of the advertising. After all, however, advertisement is
done either to increase or maintain sales either directly or indirectly.

PRE-TEST & POST-TEST OF ADVERTISING COPY

Almost every firms spends thousands of rupees on advertising every year, it is


very much pertinent to know the effectiveness of the advertisement copy. The main
purpose of every advertising is to arouse the interests of the people in the firms product
can everyone be perused by the same advertisement? Or will the same advertisement
satisfy all types of people? The simple answer is in negative because people differ so
greatly in their wants, in the economic and others motives which actuate them, and in the
various ways by which their interest is aroused. It is why some advertisements are more
effective than others. The amount is spent on advertising not only because the
advertisement does not get to the right people but because it carries an appeal which does
not interest those to whom it goes. An often quoted remark about advertisement is that
half the money spent on advertising is wasted; but no one knows which half.

Every one in the business heavily relies upon the advertisement to influence the
mind emotions and actions of the people favorably towards the product or brand or an
idea. Though advertising is expensive yet it is vital to every business for it success. The
advertiser wants that the audience should see or read his advertisement with interest so
that it may arouse their demand, desire and action. For this purpose, advertising copy
research is done to see how will an advertisement succeeds in attracting the attention and
stimulating the desire and action of the people for whom it is made and how will it
delivers the intended message about a product or an idea. Advertisement copy is done to
be sure of its effectiveness.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


Copy Testing
Copy testing is a tool involving a procedure where the effectiveness of an
advertisement is measured before it appears in its final form, during and after its
exposure to the audience to determine whether and to what extent, it has accomplished
its assigned task. In this way the copy testing is a method used to control the
effectiveness of future advertising.

Types of Tests
Copy tests can be grouped a Pre-Tests and Post-Tests.
Pre-Tests are made before an advertisement has been run. It can be done at three stages:
i. At the beginning of the creation process,
ii. At the end of the creation process, and
iii. At the end of the production stage.

The main purposes of such testing are to measure the effectiveness of different
presentation of the message including alternative presentations of the single theme. Such
tests help one to choose the best form of advertisements before incurring the expenses
and the risk of presenting it on a full scale run. They are intended to discover the plus
and minus points of an advertising campaign and of the individual advertisement.

The tests which are made after the campaign has been launched are generally
known as Post-Tests. These tests are conducted to determine the effectiveness of an
advertisements after it is published. Post-Tests measure the impact of the message. They
seek to discover which advertisements and what elements of various advertisements get
the best response, what position produces better results, what medium or issue of a
medium pulls better or how well a whole advertising campaign is progressing. Such tests
provide information about whether a brand name or the selling theme of a given
advertisement or advertising campaign penetrated the readers mind and the extent of its
penetration.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


REVIEW OF LITERATURE

The Internet has attracted companies in different industries to market products and
services. However, many companies have become disenchanted with the Internet, as they
have not achieved the commercial potential anticipated. Some suggested the Internet is
better suited for interpersonal communication and personal sites rather than for
marketing products. However, researchers suggest that value-based advertising is the key
concept behind their success. The paper reviews the nature and role of value-based
advertising as applied to advertising on the Internet.

Introduction

Since 1996, The World Wide Web has captured significant public attention. Exponential
growth in Internet hosts and personal computer adoption has led to dramatic increases in
online activity. There are 88 million Internet users in the United States. This number is
expected to reach 143 million by the end of 2004. Millions of people are online for
various reasons such as sending e-mail (52%), reading news (22%), surfing on the web
for fun (21%), buying products (4%), participating in auctions (3%), and finding friends
(2%) (Internet Advertising, 2001).During the growth process, marketers recognized that
the Internet was a medium for reaching millions of potential customers. Since then,
marketers have adapted valuebased advertising strategies to the Internet. Advertising
revenues in 2000 were reported at $8.2 billion in the United States. This has been
achieved in just six years. Forecasters predict that advertising revenues will top $14
billion by the year 2002 (Netvalue, 2000).
Additionally, advertising on the Internet has created opportunities for businesses
to develop new services and products (Hanson, 1999). However, many companies have
become disenchanted with the Internet since they have not achieved the commercial
potential promised. Some have suggested that the Internet is better suited for
interpersonal communication and personal sites rather than for commerce. Some reports
indicate that companies are removing their ads and writing off their investment with
executives questioning whether the potential is real or just hype.Hence, the purpose of
this paper is to review the nature of value-based advertising as it applies to the Internet.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


Value-based advertising is advertising that is planned strategically to fulfill customer
needs and expectations. It is reflected in the quality of web sites and their content and the
level of consumer involvement with the product (Ducoffe, 1996). Value-based
advertising meets the needs of consumers to aid in making decisions as to whether or not
to purchase an item whether it is a high involvement or low involvement product.

Regarding the Internet, Berthon, Pitt, and Watson (1996) and Lamb, Hair and McDaniel
(1996) suggest that marketers need to understand the true nature of this medium to
enhance its effectiveness. They add that value is a factor that plays an important role in
the overall effectiveness of the web sites. Value relates directly to the quality of the data
provided on the site. Barker and Groenne (1996) investigated the type of value strategies
being used on the Internet and concluded that value in Internet advertising is provided in
three ways: information, entertainment and purchase facilitation. Furthermore, the
authors argue that the level of customer involvement should be taken into consideration
when selecting the type of value strategies to implement. This assertion is consistent with
those of Rossiter, Percy, and Donovan (1991). , and with the Elaboration Likelihood
Model Traditional consumer behavior literature would suggest that intense product
information is vital for high involvement product web sites, while entertainment content
may be more fit for low involvement product sites Additionally, the primary reason fo r
distinguishing between high and low product involvement is that habit, intuition and
convenience sometimes guide the actions of consumers rather than rational
considerations (Lamb, 1996).

Value-Based Content in Advertising


Many researchers have studied the content of advertising in traditional media to develop
effective value-based strategies. Aaker and Norris (1982) state that an advertising
message can be either image/emotional/feeling or informational/rational/cognitive.
Howard (1989) indicates that examining high versus low involvement situations is the
basic criteria before selecting an advertising strategy.

Ducoffe (1996) notes the importance of value-based ads in the traditional media and
defines an advertising message as an exchange of communication as well as an exchange
of value between a company and potential consumers. Furthermore, Ducoffe suggests

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


that from a consumer point of view, a satisfactory exchange is one where the value
of the advertising itself is considered to meet or exceed expectations. According to
Ducoffee (1996, p. 22), advertising value is an overall representation of the worth of
advertising to the consumer. (Ducoffee, 1996, p. 22) In their research, Stayman, Aaker,
and Bruzzone's (1989) revealed that 47 percent of television viewers watch an ad
because of its information content and 45.6 percent watch it because it is entertaining.
Ducoffe (1996) affirms that from consumers perspective, the ability to supply
information is the primary reason for watching advertising.

Howard (1989) further explored the role of advertising content and argued that the more
pleasure, arousal and dominance in advertising content, the more effective the
advertising. In another study, Ducoffe (1996) found that the value of entertainment lies
inits ability to fulfill the emotional needs of the audience.g

This review covers a wide range of issues related to tobacco in nine subject areas:
demand, supply, and trade of tobacco leaves, demand for cigarettes, cigarette advertising,
cigarette taxes, social costs of smoking, economic significance of tobacco industry, and
farm issues associated with tobacco control. To select for the most relevant literature for
the review, first, key words were used to search for articles related to the nine topics
from three large databases: Arcola created by the National Agricultural library of the
United States Department of Agriculture, National Smoking Data Base maintained by
the Office on Smoking and Health of Centres for Disease Control and Prevention in the
United States, and Ecolit (economic literature) available at the library of Kansas State
University. The abstract and full text of each identified study were then reviewed, and
results from the reviewed study summarized. The study period covered by this review is
between 1985 and 2000, but a few important studies conducted before 1985 are also
included.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

My topic for this project report is about "Effects of Advertisement on


Children". In research methodology problem is solved in a systematic way. It may be
understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically.

Research is an art of scientific investigation. It is basically a careful investigation for


search of new facts in any branch of knowledge. Research is an academic activity & as
such the term should be used in a technical sense. According to Clifford woody research
comprises defining & redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested
solutions, collecting, organizing & evaluation data, making deductions & reaching
conclusions, and at last carefully testing the conclusions to determine whether they fit the
formulating hypothesis. In this project packaging is major and dispatching, labeling etc
are the theme.

Research Design : A research design is the arrangement of conditions for


collection and analysis of data in manner that aims to combine relevance to the
research purpose with economy in procedure. It is a framework, which
determines the course of action towards the collection and analysis of required
data. It may be described as the conceptual structure with in which the research is
conducted. I have adopted Descriptive Research as well as Exploratory design
for analysis of data. I have tried my best to analyze last years sales, production
and other financial figures so that I will come with real conclusion of packaging
effects and project objectives.

Time Schedule : As cold drinks area is very vast and it is very difficult to study
the whole system in just few weeks so as according to my limitation I divided the
whole topic into small different modules and decided to study each of them
separately, so that the in-depth knowledge is covered under this report. In first
weeks I tried my best to be familiar staff, collecting basic data, observed
working(packaging specially), cross check the data given. In the last weeks I start
preparing my report by arranging, analyzing, self audit the report and at last come

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


with final output of findings, suggestion and conclusion.

Data Collection : Data Collection can be broadly classified into two categories:
Primary Data : Primary Data are those collected a fresh and for first time
and thus happen to be original in character important primary data are:
o Observation Method
o Interview Method
o Unstructured Questionnaire
This whole is initially collected and observed by me.

Secondary Data: Secondary Data are those which have already been
collected and which have already been passed through the statistical
process, secondary data can be collected from :
o Books
o Journals & Magazines
o Websites

Sample Design :
Target Population : Local Consumers/Customers

1. ORGANISING THE DATA


The data collected during data collection process are organized and presented in a
comprehensible sequence to make them more meaningful.

2. PRESENTATION
After the data has been properly organized, it is ready for presentation. There are
different modes of presentation like tables, charts etc. The main objectives of
presentation are to put collected data into an easy readable form.

3. ANALYSIS OF DATA
After organizing and presenting the data, the researchers then has to proceed
towards conclusion by logical inferences. The raw data is then analyzed:
* By bringing raw data to measured data.
* Summarizing the data.

4. INTERPRETATION

LIMITATIONS/CONSTRAINTS OF THE STUDY

The major limitations of my study are: -


1. Limited Time :- Although the staff of Ballarpur Industries Ltd, was very efficient
and highly cooperative and they devoted enough of their valuable time on us but
because of time constraint I was not able to devote as much time with their
staff/employees.

2. Secrecy :- Some of the information was kept confidential and was not disclosed to
any person whosoever. Such as policy about change in design, colour etc.

3. Lack Of Comparative Data :- Just on to the basis of Packaging we cant come out
more fact and figures with the competitors.

4. In spite of these difficulties we still put our best efforts in try to do the full justice to
the subject matter and in completion of the report.

5. Respondents shifted to another place resulting to unavailability of their address, some


of the customers got shifted to some other places,so their new address will not be
available.

6. Respondents we confounded sometime to give proper information. Many


respondents were not able to answer he proper questions being asked confidently, as
they were confused.

7. Data collection through journals and magazines were not also simple as it needed
intensive and expensive research

SUGGESTIONS

Advertisement should be easy, simple and understandable.


Advertisement should be help to inform about changes in marketing mix.
Advertisement should be suggestive. If helps to suggest people.
Advertisement should be matching to consumer's requirements.
Entertaining advertisement can easily hold the attention of audience toward the
advertisement and audience do not feel board even in repeat telecast of such
advertisement.
Effective and impressive slogans should be used.
Theme and presentation of advertisement should be effective.
Model and presentation of advertisement should be effective.
Advertisement should be pre-tested.
Advertisement should be timeliness.
Advertisement should not increase the lost of product
Advertisement must be socially acceptable.

ADVT EFF SALES CD MBA FINAL ANCHAL MALIK


CONCLUSION

Advertisement is that it is a public announcement. In earlier times, to advertise


meant to announce publicly. Some advertisements even today just inform the public for
example: - classified advertisements give information about sale of second hand
vehicles, property accommodation, matrimonial, public notice, tender notice, recruitment
advertisement etc.
I can conclude that majority of the respondents said that TV is the most effective
media for advertisement of cold drinks and the celebrities and the slogans in the
advertisement effect the consumers. and threw T.V. media consumer easily aware about
product.
Thus, we can conclude that measurement of effectiveness of advertising is
necessary otherwise the whole planning process will be disturbed. For this purpose,
many tests and surveys are conducted, necessary data are collected and are used
extensively in the decision making process. On the basis of the information collected
during the course of surveys, necessary so that it may fetch the maximum out of its
limited resources.
